![]() ![]() I’ll be using his specs to create the concrete foaming gun, and modifying from his prototype of a light weight mass heater separate from the rocket stove. ![]() ![]() This is borrowed from another solid innovator, The Honey-Do Carpenter. My design is a hybrid, as the stove will stand alone, as will the mass-heater. I found the best understanding of the forces at work were from Masonry Stove builders, in particular Walker Design, who offers a J-Rocket core design to keep us diy dinks from burning down the ranch house. Refractory material is the only media that can survive the temperatures in the core and stack. Essentially it rusts without oxygen, or more precisely it is the effect of reshuffling the iron molecules wherein they lose covalent bonds and layer like sheaves of paper. What is important, is the combustion chamber and the insulation. The materials used for the external body have little impact on the efficiency or userability of the stove. At 1500 to 2000 degrees in an oxygen depleted environment, steel undergoes a process called spalling. The stove body The external body of the rocket stove, as with the ecostove, can be made with clay, brick, cement, stainless steel, cast iron or sheet metal. It has gotten, to date, more than 2,000,000 views. The most popular YouTube video so far showed how to build a rocket stove out of bricks for about 6. Many cores are created with bare steel using old gas canisters. This stove made of concrete bricks is an effective method of cooking, using only small pieces of biomass. The interwebs are awash with bad Rocket Stove designs. ![]()
