Wood Doctor Energy Converter How It Works Page
Initial Firebox:
This is the chamber where the actual fire occurs.
In the off cycle the wood burns with no open flame and the heat and creosote smoke rise upwards into the
Drying Chamber and Wood Hopper.
In the on cycle the flames are pulled down
through the coals creating a very efficient burn.
The fire is actually upside down.
Dry wood is automatically fed from the hopper as required.
Final Combustion Chamber:
This is a separate insulated ceramic chamber underneath
the Firebox.
The heated air in the firebox, including all smoke gas and creosote, is
drawn downwards through the hot bed of coals and into the Final
Combustion Chamber. Injection Air is added from above the coals and also
pulled through the coals. The extreme heat (up to 2000?) ignites all
gases
including smoke and creosote. These gases, which would otherwise be
exited out the flue, are used as fuel giving nearly 100% burn
efficiency. You can expect the Energy Converter to use up to 50% less
wood than most wood stoves on the market.
