Rocket Mass Stoves for Cooking & Home Heat Part 2
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 сен 2024
- Rocket stoves are renowned for their clean burn and low fuel consumption and have a abundance of practical uses. Applying this technology to larger mass heaters conserves firewood and expands the stove’s range to serve a homestead or farm well. Living Web Farm's Energy and Resource Coordinator, Richard Freudenberger, will show how us how to build a basic rocket heater using common and salvaged materials and how to apply the same fundamental principals to a variety of designs. We will work through planning, site prep, theory, function and construction of an 8-inch rocket mass heater at our North Mills River farm.
I am stunned this doesn't have more view for such an in depth education video about rmh's!
Hello Richard Freudenberger
Thank you a million times for this wonderful 3-part master class on Rocket Mass Heater for homes. (yet to trace the Part3 🙄). You have explained quite a few details with patience and clarity. Your these two videos will certainly be of help whenever I shall build an RMH for my proposed farm-stay in the northern hills (on way to the Himalayas) in Bharat (India). Best Wishes
Rocket mass heater stoves are much safer than conventional wood stoves not only because of the cooler flew gases but because, once the burn is over, the fire is out and its only the heated mass that radiates the heat into the house at night while you are asleep. Most owners of conventional wood burners will choke their fires down during the night so that they have heat all night until the next morning. While a slow burning smoldering fire sounds good it is in fact very bad because not only do you have a live fire while you are asleep, it also generates deadly CO and the incomplete combustion causes a buildup of creosote in the chimney which poses a high risk of a house fire. Bottom line is high temperature, clean and complete burning rocket mass heaters are the way to go.
Thankyou
I find this to be excellent.
Where is part 1 please?
Love from Australia
Only problem with the Mass/cob benches is getting the cat and dog off so you can stretch out 😉
Hi, Richard !!!! Excellent explanaition !!!! Where can i found Part 3 ? Best regards...
Excellent. Is the part three to be released soon?
im afraid itll be released never.
He needs to make a model out of LEGO and a soup tin and a piece of plastic tube for the chimney. I tried to explain a rocket stove and this way helped. I then made a mini one out of some soup tins and a coffee can and perlite. When people see it working like this they get the idea. Ceramic fibre board will up the price but increase the longevity.
Thanks for sharing that idea, it gives me the idea to build an actual working model only in miniature scale.
Tin can rocket stoves for cooking are one of the seminal creations for this entire technology ;)
please tape the process & display on youtube
@@Maggie-Gardener-Maker please display the realized stove very publicly.
@@lindalinda-ie3hw I didn't do it because too busy on homestead, but it would be lovely to do, how about you doing it and let us all see it?
This is a good informative vid Cheers mate
Great video :-)
The answer to the question about the water coil in the venting is that it will work, but you have to install a valve on the water to adjust the flow rate of water thru coil, as to not take so much heat that gases can't flow and burn flue gases out the exhaust. Also, you don't want to put the coil in the secondary burn chamber, you want that as hot as possible. The secondary burn chamber should have perlite or something that insulates, you don't want to heat cob around the secondary burn chamber, you want perlite all around that to force it to get so hot it will burn anything going thru there. if done right, you could burn green wood, and there will be no smoke. Note: green wood is not going to burn easily, but it is the point of how it can burn anything up to nothing, no smoke, no soot.
Get it hot enough and have heavy enough SS tube for the secondary chamber, and it could almost be an incinerator. Actually i might look those up right after this. Think of that, able to burn ANYHING in the incinerator. You could burn used motor oil and have no exhaust fumes in something like that. Also tires. lol
Instead of using the bottom barrel, would it make more sense to use bricks and Cobb? Then the top barrel could just sit right on top of that.
Why not, also you could pour the inner stack using equal parts sand, cement, and perlite.
@@TheRebelmanone Temperatures in a good heat riser will destroy portland cement.
a lot more rockets have horizontal feed ways. I wonder if this would affect the ratios 2 to 1 to 4.
regarding cooking where the heat exits the barrel/bell. this area presumably the manifold. he says that this area would be plenty hot enough for cooking. would this include baking in oven temperatures? apologies for the question as the author does not respond to the comments
Would it improve the over all efficiency to heat the intake air much like a cold blast oil lantern?
no
I was curious if a horizontal exit will affect the flow?
Could something be like this to heat a home if you were out for 8 or 9 hrs a day at work, or do you need to tend to it every couple of hours?
You've probably learned your answer already, but you burn this super hot and intense to charge the mass, and it will stay warm for a whole day.
So like 1-4 hours burning, once a day basically
Where is part one?

As far as I know, brick has more "thermal storage capacity" than concrete.
Clay is lighter than sand.
I repeat, concrete heats up and cools down faster than brick.
@@KKhhoorrnniittee
Brick is not a good insulator
but is a better insulator
than concrete.
Has part 3 been punished?
i think its the poor people watching this vid and paying to take his class that are being punished
Sen me more information please.
Aaaaaaaaannnnnndddddd a cliffhanger! (((((-!
i wonder where the author gets his information from
Many sources, including the two books he recommended at the beginning of the first video in this series.
Are these legal? I can't find answers to this.
The answer is, it varies. The Wisners have at least one design that has been passed for code in some locations. I would recommend reaching out to Erica Wisner with this question.
@@peterellis4262I found that my local codes and insurance will not back such a stove.
However, if it's a certified stove (UL) and it's EPA exempt or approved I can install one.
The only one I've found is the Liberator Rocket Stove. They are quite expensive though.
I'm now looking at a wood burning cook stove
