Page 9: Sensible Wood Burning
3. SENSIBLE WOOD BURNING Proper wood burning When dry wood is burned in a wood-burning stove the following process occurs (over a period of approx. 1 hour): - After lighting the log starts to dry and heats up. - After drying the temperature of wood rises to approx. 300–400°F (150-200°C) and is converted into combustible gases/charcoal. -
Page 10: Types Of Fuel And Heating Values
Types of fuel and heating values Combustion involves conversion of the fuel from solid form into gases, water vapor and charcoal. The heating value is an expression of the content of combustible gases - stated in kcal/kg. All wood has roughly the same heating value per kilogram. -
