Crispin,

When I read your "In the time-temperature-turbulence equation" lights went off. 
 I expect this is why my iCans with three washers as deflectors, in contra 
distinction to a "concentrator ring", burn cleaner.  The deflectors increase 
both turbulence and residence time in the combustion zone.  Secondary air slots 
also contribute to the turbulence.  At least my iCans with secondary air slots 
burn much cleaner than those with various holes used for secondary air.  My 
current system burns cleanly enough to deposit very little soot on cooking 
utensils or food.  They are essentially soot free.  Perhaps "soot free" should 
be a goal?

Cheers,

Jock
