read a bit around in my thread about cooking gasifier, more down is described a small diameter gasifier and his difficulties, till it works fine…
in the begin try only with charcoal,because your gasifier design is not good for wood-woodchips. charcoal : right size and all dust sieved out…
blower speed not to strong, otherwise hollow burn…no gas
try a insulation around the gasifier from the bottom up to 50 cm high…described in my thread…i think your inner temperature is too low…
my gasifier in this design needs 7 minutes to deliver burnable gas, after 10 minutes gas is constant good…at least i constructed my gasifier with 4 nozzles for not having problems with fuel flow…will say the fuel-coal- not flows down and creates a hollow space and than, of course, gas cannot be produced more…iron pipes inside ofen are rusty and the fuel cannot flow down…
what diameter your gasifier has?
what will you do with the gasifier?
is your charcoal umid or dry?
