Research Abstract |
Focusing on the heat generated in composting bamboo chips, one of the unused biomass energy sources, we studied the possibility of a system applying the heat extracted. Firstly, we obtained the heat generation rate at the steady-state. Secondly, we derived heat transfer equation for heat extraction by the water pipe arranged in the bamboo chip pile. Then, we certified the validity of the heat transfer model by the experiment of small-scale total system of accumulation and utilization of the generated heat. Moreover, through the experiments for practical-scale system, we clarified the availability of the system model.
