Zatsuyougakari to shite Yado de Hatarakihajimeta Renkinjutsushi, Kanbanmusume-tachi to Issho ni Kurasu koto ni natta - Ch. 2

[finalm]

I don't remember where I got info originally, feels like it was some documentary, but ai summary said this and linked me this video:

you seem to know more about this than I so your word is probably more reliable than an ai summary and a short yt video, but I think that actually only makes my case about "half-remembered" information being sloppily thrown in.

The video seems factual, but doing this only with one gram tells little here, especially since the extended "burning" time was little more than a smolder. I do not think the author would get anywhere near similar results, had he repeated this with different amounts of the fuel. Still, as I mentioned, you can see that conditions very much matter here. Change them, even with the same amount of fuel and all bets are off. Here the reaction rate of the coals is simply faster for some reason, but I doubt anyone could confidently tell you what makes it so.

I feel like this author is in a race to stuff as many tropes into this as possible lol

Friend, I think you're getting lost in the weeds; What matters to the discussion of why the author decided to have the "alchemically treated" wood burn hotter and longer than normal wood is that you could get the result I showed from a quick search accompanied by "video evidence," and my testimony that I had seen/heard something to a similar effect in the past.
Honestly, even my hypothesis that it was half-remembered information about coke is just me trying to link it something in the real world and not strictly necessary. The train of though that led to that sloppy little detail could very well have been as easily been as simple as:
1. coal burns hotter and longer than wood -> 2. use alchemy/magic to make "wood" that burns better and longer than coal.

Perhaps we've made too much of a digression into other matters here. My original point was simple: in IRL terms you can't have both a significantly hotter flame and a significantly longer burn time. This is why in order to get blue flame you have to use fuels that burn rapidly, like methane, rather than ones that do slowly, like coal. So magic that transmutes the wood to burn a lot hotter should not make it last longer at the same time, because it's overkill on the fantastical elements IMO.

There is a surprising amount of angst over a manga where the entire point is clearly to look at Eirin's boobs and Aira's ass.

Moving in trope like this genuinely wont work if they literally live in an inn instead of a normal home. Genuinely why still acting tsundere at this point, even putting aside the fact that he's their long time friend and a benefactor, they live in a place where guests including men would be staying. Not to mention they didnt have much skill and experience to keep it running and it would inevitably get shut down if they didnt have him there

 

[Galder]

would prefer it if bro stuck to hentai, but this looks like a chill read

HEFUCKED THE WOOOD OHO NOOOO 😭

OH NO, HE'S PUTTING THEM UP HIS BUTT

 

[n3na3]

OH NO, HE'S PUTTING THEM UP HIS BUTT

what a fever dream

 

[Kitsune_115]

No seeing the harem tag will take this as a romance w

 

[Wizardrone]

thanks for chapter

The color of flame is because of the efficiency of the burn. Yellow/orange/red flames are caused by incomplete combustion. All the extra stuff in normal wood that inhibits burning causes a sooty fire. Gas flames will burn yellow also if the chemical mixture is poor for combustion.

What's being implied in the story is that he changed the chemical composition and structure of the wood to create a material that has a highly efficient combustion.

Hopefully nobody smokes near that pile of wood or this will be the story of an Alchemist and Three Sisters Who Live Together in a Wagon Down by the River.

While this feels like it should be good, something just seems to be lacking. It's weird, but I guess I'll see how it goes for now.

 

[aveney41]

This is the worst kind of tsundere. Sadly she is most likely end game. The other sisters are far more interesting.

 

[deadrabbits]

Tsundere fatigue.

A fuel that burns hotter would last for a shorter time for the same mass, because it means it reacts faster with oxygen. Just because it's magic doesn't mean it has to be totally nonsensical in all regards...

not really. wood is less efficient of a fuel than coal, which is less efficient than coke.

Definetly not pound-for-pound. Coke is more energy dense than coal so it can supply more heat in total, but it won't burn longer on avarage than the same amount of coal. There are several variables to the conditions under which it is burned so I'll avoid blanket statements here, however due to it being more porous than coal, you can expect if to burn out faster simply due to the rate at which the reaction runs.

same thing. efficiency.

 

[IshanKumar22]

Using a separation formula as the base, I'll first purge the moisture and then boost the reactivity between the oils and oxygen

gng since when did wood contain oils? wood has cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin as the main compounds that burn. i was taught this in high school. is the schooling system there f*cked?

Plus the fire is blue!

this can happen due to 2 reasons:
1. the flame is ~1500deg C. such flames are usually very small, or are as an extremely thin layer. with that big of a blue flame, YOU'RE F*CKED
2. the flame has metals in it. again, with that much metal to produce a distinct, vibrant blue color for that long, YOU'RE F*CKED
this was also taught to me in high school. did the author go to high school?

this is just lumping magic with half baked science to make it sound plausible and cool(or hot here ig), even though it is entirely incorrect. someone tell the author that wood fires and LPG fires are not the same.

Not even the topic here. I'm afraid I have no time for someone who can't read with comprehension, ciao.

Tsundere's are a blight upon the universe. Easily the worst of the dere archetypes.
