Dear Alex
>The peak temperature achieved in the descending pyrolysis front was 480C. What was the diameter of the chamber? Do you have a good idea what the burn rate was? I realise the calculation of the power output per unit area will be difficult to get precisely but I'd like some idea. Operating at a low level sets the low power limit for stove characterisation and the determination of the Turn Down Ratio of a stove. I am thinking 'warming' power for long, low cooking. Then, for the same chamber, based on your experience what would the maximum burn rate be? As the upper limit is constrained by draft through the system the rate is a statement about your system, but still, what sort of controllability did you obtain for the power level? Thanks Crispin
