Hi Radam-My friend in Poco where I was staying last winter, he has all the probes. In the ss tests we measured the output heat at 1, 950 and the core temps at the Level 3 position at 1, 307 C. The inside of the pipes walls were between 200 to 300 degrees cooler.
In the case of the quarts pipes the melting of the ss screen would suggest 2, 600 F at the output. So that would be just under a third increase in the heat at a fraction of the fuel in comparison. Need probes that will withstand 3, 000 F or higher.
Picked up the all the parts for the steamer test. Just a matter of making everything fit. In one of the tests down the road it would be interesting to generated 10 lbs. of super heated steam at low pressure at around 1, 200 F. Should be able to use this to remove the graffiti off of train cars or degrease and entire engine in a short time. This will be the first real practical application of the joe pipe to the public. Not you would be able to turn wood gas into a good profit making business.

Just the fact that it is a bright light suggests that aluminium exotermically oxidizes, try doing it in the absence of air and I bet you would have just alot of melted aluminum, and not aluminium oxide as in this case.

Do you have high temperature temperature pobe? Try making teperature measurements along the pipe axis. Like ben does inside gasifier reactor.
