Dear Everyone Is it then agreed that the term TLUD was used from about the early '90's, and that in the modern era, TLUD stoves burning solid fuels, top-lit updraft style, working with a descending pyrolysis front, utilising preheated (or not) secondary air were available commercially from the late 50's?
If there is still any doubt I encourage you to contact: Hasan HASKARAMAN SILVER GROUP OF COMPANIES TURKEY www.silver.com.tr Factory +90 352 241 01 90 They build inverted (updraft) versions of the previously successful downdraft coal gasifiers in use (as I understand it) in the UK for a long time before that, with significant power controllability. Haskaraman Senior is still alive so perhaps he will tell us more about possible Russian stoves that worked that way (there was technical contact which may have inspired him). Regards Crispin ++++++++++ Doc, I read most of that GIZ report shared by Kubos. It was useful for me in terms of info about the genesis of gasifiers during World War II and other challenges they faced for domestic experimentations. I read up to chapter 8. Important warnings for ABE and other TLUD projects however i could not find the term TLUD.
