Lanny have you seen capacitive discharge stud welding? This would allow welding of dissimilar metals to the pot in any pattern. I have no idea of costs. Have you done heat transfer tests with your 4mm aluminium pot compared with the thinner stainless one? Stainless is a notoriously poor conductor of heat and theoretically would need to be just under a tenth of the thickness of aluminium for the same conductivity, but I do use stainless pots at home. Finally can you explain the difference between a vat and a pot? Paul I do consider this to be important because biomass stoves have an inherent problem with heat transfer compared with natural gas or LPG so improvements in heat exchange will have high benefits.
