Interestingly the cyclonic effect could be adding to the efficency of
the device, not by mixing but by sorting, the centripidal force
throwing heavier/cooler gasses to the outside, while the hot light
gasses move inward. See

Though your gas speeds are low, even the sorting of the heavy and cooler
particulates along the walls may help explain the cooler than expected
vessels
