Currently, we are developing high power improved stoves for institutions.The key features of the design is adopted based on the household stoves developed and promoted by Debesai Ghebrehiwet in Eritrea. It lifts the fire chamber off the ground so the air can flow underneath through the perforated fire grates which held the fire chamber that increases the combustion efficiency and retains heat while raising the cooking pot to the hottest point above the flame. We got a fantastic result from the heat transfer efficiency point of view. But we faced a problem in Controlling the smoke which passes by the sides between the pot and the walls of the fire chamber. Do you have any idea how we can control such situations with out buying additional materials like Pot skirt.


[MAGH OPEN STOVE](http://e-maghopenstove.blogspot.com/) is an institutional fixed woodgas stove. This stove is useful for cooking needs of up to 100. With primary and secondary air controls it is easy to operate and highly efficient. For making this stove, "Magh CM" stoves are used inside. This stove is installed at "Open House", Hyderabad, a place for destitute youth for cooking their own food, shelter, studies, etc. Implemented under the "Good Stoves and Biochar Communities" Project, Implemented by GEO with support of GoodPlanet.org France.

Manual: Uso y Mantenimiento del Horno
Mejorado “Manny”


Introducción
El Horno Mejorado “Manny” fue diseñado por el profesor Manuel Hernández de la
Universidad de Illinois en Estados Unidos, con el fin de resolver la problemática a la que se
enfrentan pequeños y medianos productores que se dedican a hornear o quemar piezas
de barro con leña. Este horno por su diseño quema las piezas de barro con un sistema de
flujo de llama invertida que permite una distribución del calor de manera uniforme dentro
de la cámara donde se coloca el producto, reduciendo considerablemente la perdida del
producto.

En base a experiencias en el campo, el profesor Hernández ha ido mejorando su diseño,
utilizando diferentes tipos de materiales para su construcción. Al mismo tiempo, en
conjunto con el profesor Lowell Baker de la Universidad de Alabama en Estados Unidos y
con los ceramistas de La Paz Centro en Nicaragua han creado un Inyector de combustible
alternativo llamado MICA, que en conjunto con el diseño del horno mejorado “Manny”
esta permitiendo un ahorro de leña, así como el de crear una condición más cómoda y
segura para el ceramista.

Este manual ilustrativo describe los pasos a seguir para hacer un buen uso y
mantenimiento del Horno Mejorado “Manny” de un metro cúbico de capacidad (1m³), no
obstante se insita a los expertos en la materia así como a los ceramistas en general a
realizar pruebas de campo que perfeccionen aun más el buen uso y mantenimiento de
este horno.
