Blueprint: Village-Fabricable Chimney Rocket Stove (from DOI 10.5281/zenodo.24108419)
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Design blueprint — SIMULATED, NOT MEASURED — NOT BUILT. This is a build-ready design blueprint derived from the source paper 'A Village-Fabricable Chimney Rocket Stove for Clean Cooking' (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.24108419). It specifies a village-fabricable insulated chimney rocket stove: full dimensions for the combustion chamber, feed magazine, insulation, pot skirt and chimney, a bill of materials, a step-by-step fabrication sequence, the operating envelope, tolerances, failure modes, and a maintenance schedule. All performance figures are calculated, not measured; no stove has been built or tested. The printed limit is stated at full size: the modelled 24-hour fine-particle (PM2.5) average for the cook is 100.17 micrograms per cubic metre, 6.68 times the WHO 24-hour guideline of 15 micrograms per cubic metre, so the design does not meet the particle guideline, and the blueprint states what would have to change. Artificial intelligence was used in the preparation of this blueprint: Dave, an AI assistant, performed the derivations, drafting and deposit preparation under the author's direction.
