You're all way ahead of me but I am paying close attention, this would be
cool to repeat as an updated experiment including digital hi speed
photography as well. Seems like NASA put in an huge amount of work into
this project and it paid off quite well. Don't know how many Saturn's were
lost in trial experiments, but my guess is not many. I would like to know
more!

But how long does the glycerin fog last, or is there an alternative
to detect leaks in hvac systems. These candles burn for a set amount of
time and then go out. The 30 second candle produces 4000 cubic feet of smoke
for a given temperature.

Probably the most massive amount of smoke can be made by using a fogger
chamber.http://www.planetnatural.com/product/fogg-it-nozzle/
And simply inject it in the burn chamber.
You'll run an inlet vent on your nosecone right through the burn

But, I wonder how much of that stuff you can atomize.
