I am rather new to the idea of Rocket stoves but they have impressed greatly. So much that i am planning to build one for heating my workshop but a few questions have popped into my head that i have not found an answer to. The first is; If i add some fins to the secondary burn chamber so the gases are making a cyclone will it improve the burn? Second i got some car parts around i was thinking of building a exhaust gas cooler then hooking up hot water tank with a truck radiator and fan would this work or would it slow the gases to much to carry the ash out?
thank for any input you can give.
