Analysis of the Possibility of Burning and Co-firing Oats in Automatic Solid Fuel Boilers

The authors conducted a series of studies to identify the possibility of using standard automatic solid fuel boilers with a retort burner for burning alternative fuel in the form of oats. In addition to the results obtained, the importance of the share of biofuels, their use in industry and their applications in smaller production plants was discussed. Coal has also been presented as a large shareholder in energy production, which we have to reckon with, but also that legal regulations will develop and emissions problems in the low-energy sector cannot be avoided.

Portable heat pump testing device

Abstract The aim of this paper is to present the design and working principle of a portable testing device for heat pumps in the energy recirculation system. The presented test stand can be used for any refrigerating/reverse flow cycle device to calculate the device energy balance. The equipment is made of two portable containers of the capacity of 250 liters to simulate the air heat source and ground heat source with a system of temperature stabilization, compressor heat pump of the coefficient of performance (COP) of = 4.3, a failsafe system and a control and measurement system.
