How Do Corn Stoves Work?
I’ve been researching different types of stoves to heat my home for some time now. I would love to get away from regular electric heat which is what I currently have. While looking around the web, I came across a corn stove. I have to admit that I didn’t know that there was such a thing. I actually love the idea of burning corn since it seems quite natural. Here is an excerpt taken from “Basics of Corn Stoves”
“Corn stoves are designed to burn a granular fuel and in some wyas quite similar to Pellet Stoves, in both pellet fuel and corn fuel are quite dense and wont burn easily in an open pile in a fire chamber.
To get these fueks to burn some corn stoves use a small combustion chamber in which the corn is fed and combustion air is added. Two methods of adding the corn is either by dropping the corn in or by pushing up the corn by means of an auger. The feed rate can be adjusted and hence the heat produced will be changed.”
