  2. Firewood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewood

    Typically, seasoned (dry) wood has 20% or less moisture content. Use of the lower heating value is advised as a reasonable standard way of reporting this data. [citation needed] The energy content of a measure of wood depends on the tree species. [19] For example, it can range from 15.5 to 32 million British thermal units per cord (4.5 to 9.3 ...

  3. Moisture meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisture_meter

    Moisture content is measured in the same manner as wood and displayed in Wood Moisture Equivalent, or WME. WME is the theoretical moisture content that the substrate would contain if it were wood. This ability to locate and measure moisture anomalies can help manage and control indoor air quality by locating and preventing hidden mold growth ...

  4. Water content - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_content

    Water content or moisture content is the quantity of water contained in a material, such as soil (called soil moisture), rock, ceramics, crops, or wood. Water content is used in a wide range of scientific and technical areas, and is expressed as a ratio, which can range from 0 (completely dry) to the value of the materials' porosity at ...

  5. Wood fuel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_fuel

    In 1987 the US Department of Agriculture published a method for producing kiln dried firewood, on the basis that better heat output and increased combustion efficiency can be achieved with logs containing lower moisture content. [4] The magazine "Wood Burning Quarterly" was published for several years before changing its name to "Home Energy ...

  6. TDR moisture sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TDR_moisture_sensor

    A spatial TDR moisture sensor employs time-domain reflectometry (TDR) to measure moisture content indirectly based on the correlation to electric and dielectric properties of materials, such as soil, agrarian products, snow, wood or concrete. Measurement usually involves inserting a sensor into the substance to be tested and then applying ...

  7. Equilibrium moisture content - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilibrium_moisture_content

    If the wood is placed in an environment at a particular temperature and relative humidity, its moisture content will generally begin to change in time, until it is finally in equilibrium with its surroundings, and the moisture content no longer changes in time. This moisture content is the EMC of the wood for that temperature and relative humidity.
