Stovers and Biocharists,
A total of 16 tests of stoves were conducted at the January 2019 TLUD Summit held at Aprovecho. A summary data sheet from Aprovecho is attached. Just seeing the numbers without discussions is less than ideal, so please do not over-examine the results.
16 tests total:
2 of one stove that was not TLUD powered (Marco – plancha stove from Guatemala)
1 test of a large TLUD-ND-Large and not intended as a cooking stove ~15 kW) (Norm biochar maker model 16(?) )
4 tests of Kirk Harris Wonderwerks TLUD-ND
3 tests of Champion TLUD-ND
3 tests of Champion TLUD-FA (yes, forced air and not many changes to the Champion TLUD)
3 tests of FABstove TLUD-FA
Details with explanations, photos, and interpretations are forthcoming, being prepared by Suddha Banerjee and myself, with comments from any of the stove owners. Please be patient; might take another week.
