This is a key element in the effectiveness of a stove as a fire which smolders too long will deplete energy and heat to the air. Contemporary wood stoves are designed to help reduce this by sending air into the firebox from several different points to keep the fire burning efficiently.

It is a piece metal, typically circular in shape that sits near the top of the stove, where the flue pipe joins. It appears a lot like the honeycomb shape of a metal honeycomb. It has pores in which the combustion gases from the wood are deposited. These gases are then burned again at lower temperatures to release more heat.
