Abstract
- Several factors affect how particulate matter and gaseous emissions are formed during the combustion processes of biomass. The amount of combustion air, as well as its redistribution, is one of these factors. This article deals with the performance and emission parameters determined using different distributions of the amount of combustion air of the wood stove with beech wood as a fuel. Eighteen different settings of primary, secondary and tertiary air supplies were realized, while heat output, efficiency, particulate matter, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides were measured or determined. The aim of this article is to identify the optimal air distribution between primary, secondary, and tertiary air supplies focused on the mentioned parameters. Based on the results, two settings (25/50/25 and 0/100/0) could be the optimal variant. However, the concentration of particulate matter reached a higher value during the setting with a ratio of 25/50/25, similar to a ratio of 50/25/25. The measurement during the setting with a ratio of 0/100/0 could be influenced by the existing embers on the grid before the start of the measurement. However, it is important to supply all three types of combustion air with the main emphasis on the secondary air supply due to the completely use of the combustible gases.
