Ah, my mistake. I
should have said
rocket mass heater. Are there any emissions data available for the common designs? There are some cities here where you are restricted to using ULEBs or pellet fires because of the
local environment (inversion layer over the
city trapping pollution ).
Also, I'm trying to understand how the ULEB fires work and what they need to establish the draft. Is it mainly the rate of combustion in the primary chamber that brings in
enough air to push the air up the flue, or is the heat in the flue which establishes the updraft? If it's the latter, would electrically heating the flue help establish the draft more quickly?
