Title: Design guideline handbook for industrial spreader stoker boilers fired with wood and bark residue fuels

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5509344

An experimental research program was conducted at Oregon State University to develop a data base on the combustion characteristics of wood residue fuels as they are burned in industrial spreader stoker boilers. The results of the experimental program impact on the design of industrial spreader stoker boilers can be used to optimize the design of these boilers. This design guideline handbook is an abbreviated summary of design criteria for industrial spreader stoker boilers fired with wood and bark residue fuels. Suggested methods to improve the design and performance of these systems are included.
