[Stoves] steam consumption in rice husk quasi gasifier stove

[alexis belonio]

Dear Paul, David, and All

The 250 ml water inside the steam box can be consumed
within 34 to 35 minutes. The steam-fuel ratio is about
1:6.  Test of the rice husk quasi gasifier stove
indicate a reduction in the efficiecy of the stove
when steam is used but there is an improvement on the
quality of the flame.  I also observed that the
surface that is heated directly of the steam becomes
red hot than other surfaces.  If we redirect the flow
of steam to the pot, this might improve the efficiency
of the stove.  Any, I will try to build the stove
first and test to see wheather it works or not.

Alexis
