Abstract:Three working models, TiB MK II, MK IIK and III, capable of continuous combustion, are described. It is shown that these burners can be operated continuously in a stable pseudo-steady-state manner by means of intermittent charging of husk from the top and discharging of ash from the bottom. Mass and heat balance data, flame temperatures, combustion efficiencies and heat transfer efficiencies for heating water in a vessel are included. Combustion efficiency of about 72 ~o was achieved in TiB MK II by making a s… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
