How hot do rocket stoves get?
As a result, the exhaust temperature of a functioning rocket mass heater can average around 60–90 °C (140–194 °F), which is lower compared to that of a conventional wood stove, which averages around 400–600 °C (752–1112 °F).

What is the highest temperature possible in a rocket stove?
The highest temperature observed during the tests was 1921 F. A rocket stove was constructed of sheet metal using a 5”diameter by 12”tall ceramic fiber “riser sleeve” for an insulated chimney. The feed magazine was 3” high by 4 ½” wide with an adjustable flap at the top to control the free air entering above the level of the feed shelf.
What kind of thermometer do you use for a rocket stove?
A VEI brand digital thermometer with a 1/8” diameter stainless steel probe was used to measure and record exit temperatures from the stove. The thermocouple was fixed 1” below the top of the rocket chimney and directly in the center of the tube.
What happens to air in a rocket stove?
Air entering the rocket stove above the level of the sticks in the feed opening tends to cool the exit gases of the stove. Air entering at the “mid-level” (below the sticks but above the coals) is less effective in increasing stove temperatures than air being forced up through the coals.
