  2. Pellet heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pellet_heating

    Pellet boilers are used as central heating systems for heat requirements (heating load) of more than 3.9 kW . But pellet central heating systems are not only used in single- or two-family homes (up to 30 kW), but also for larger residential or business units with heat requirements of a few hundred kW.

  3. Pellet boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pellet_boiler

    A pellet boiler is a heating system that burns wood pellets. Pellet boilers are used in central heating systems for heat requirements (heating load) from 3.9 kW to 1 MW (megawatt) or more. Pellet central heating systems are used in single family homes, and in larger residential, commercial, or institutional applications.

  4. Biomass heating system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biomass_heating_system

    Biomass heating plant in Austria; the heat power is about 1000 kW Fully automatic 140 kW wood chip heating system in Austria. 35 years old. There are four main types of heating systems that use biomass to heat a boiler. The types of biomass heating are fully automated, semi-automated, pellet-fired, and combined heat and power.

  9. Thermal efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_efficiency

    So, for a boiler that produces 210 kW (or 700,000 BTU/h) output for each 300 kW (or 1,000,000 BTU/h) heat-equivalent input, its thermal efficiency is 210/300 = 0.70, or 70%. This means that 30% of the energy is lost to the environment. An electric resistance heater has a thermal efficiency close to 100%. [8]
