StoveTec Science: The Smoke IS Our Fuel

Very brief video demonstrating that smoke is flammable, and showing it burning at the top of the StoveTec Rocket Stove. It's crucial that folks who want to understand how these stoves work, understand that the smoke is the fuel. Solid Wax and Liquid gasoline are just like solid wood, they do not burn, when they heat up they create vapors that do! All fuels (whether solid, liquid or gas) burn as a gas! So our fuel in a Rocket Stove is the smoke coming out of the wood. This footage captures the magic of burning smoke so clearly that we couldn't resist making it it's own video topic. We were losing light so the image is somewhat grainy but ignore that and enjoy the science!
