Rules for efficient primary furnace improvements
 sufficient combustion volume (residence time) for
agglomeration processes
 sufficiently high temperatures (secondary combustion chamber)
 good mixing with combustion air (turbulence, teriary air)
 low lambda
total:
 = 1.3 to 1.7
in fire bed:  = 0.2 to 0.4
 pronounced air staging („fixed-bed“ gasifier stage)
 deposition areas of low gas velocity (for coarse particles)

Slide 17

Features of modern chimney stoves
 correctly dimensioned combustion chamber
with chamotte walls (allowing high
temperatures and high gas residence time)
 round shaped edges and corners in
combustion chamber (to reduce dead zones)
 deflecting parts for increased turbulences
and mixing of pyrolysis gases with oxygen
 separate primary- and secondary air inlets
 single crank mechanism for primary/
secondary air distribution
 preferably small windows (or none)
 preferably high and slim compared to wide
furnace body geometry
 preferably long vertical pipe to chimney
(for higher heat radiation into the room)

Summary and conclusions
• biomass combustion has significantly improved during the last years
(this applies mainly for boilers)
• sufficient knowledge for further primary measures is available
(optimum lambda, air controll, CFD)
• operator‘s influence is still large for stoves (instructions efforts required!)
• solutions for non-wood fuel applications are few in Germany
(high legal barriers)
• fuel standardisation provides chances for further improvements
• secondary measures are on the edge of becoming broadly availabe for small
scale applicances.
