Space heating is required for year-round occupancy of bulidings such as the Hab Lab.

Design considerations

  • Fuel source
    • Cordwood
    • Pelletized fuel
    • Other biomass
    • Burnable waste from site
  • Heating load (BTU/hr)
  • Heat circulation
  • Overnight (untended) performance
  • Use waste heat from on-site energy systems (steam engine, shop power cubes, etc)
