[Stoves] Fan-blaster Combustors, Stove Camp 2006, and the Dell-Point Pellet Stove

[Paul S. Anderson]

Jeff,

Thanks for the description of your actions and the results.  Interesting and
potentially relevant.  If I could physically see that situation, I might have
some better comments.

BUT....

I am having enough difficulties understanding and explaining the fan-blaster
combustion in terms of the very small stoves and pellet stoves.  So I am
reluctant to "open mouth, insert foot" if I made a statement about your
described situation with a much larger device.  Truly, further study and
understanding is needed.  I have only stimulated the discussion with my 
initial
observations.

I can pretty well handle the defining issues T-LUD, but I am far from handling
the issues about what might (or might not) eventually be called 
"fan-blasters."
