Beginning in April 1976, Oregon State University, with the financial assistance of the U.S. Department of Energy has been developing a data base for the combustion characteristics of wood residue fuels burned in industrial spreader-stoker boilers. Information gained during the study contributed to development of a design data base for more efficient wood fired industrial spreader-stoker furnaces. Data collected from the test facility has confirmed that distribution of combustion air to the combustion chamber is critical to the efficient operation of the furnaces.
