Development of a Lignite Coal Heater for Livestock Facilities and Performance Test
축산용 갈탄 난방기의 개발과 성능시험
Abstract
This study was conducted to develop a lignite coal heater which can be used to livestock facilities and to test performance of the heater developed. Experimental results are as following: 1. Heating capacity of the heater was 85,000 kcal/h. 2. The concentrations of CO gas in the exhaust gas were the maximum of 759 ppm and the average of 319 ppm; for the concentrations of NOx, the maximum of 212 ppm and the average of 57 ppm ; for the concentrations of SO2 gas, the maximum of 302 ppm and the average of 99 ppm. As the values were less than the allowable concentration limites, they did not violate the air environment law. 3. Problems such as frequent interruption of fuel supply and bridge state were happened. Therefore, it was required that these should be resolved in the future.
