2、n the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method applies to wood-fired or automaticallyfed biomass burning hydronic heat
3、ing appliances.These appli-ances transfer heat to the indoor environment through circula-tion of a liquid heat exchange media such as water or awater-antifreeze mixture.1.2 The test method simulates hand loading of seasonedcordwood or fueling with a specified biomass fuel and mea-sures particulate e
4、missions and delivered heating efficiency atspecified heat output rates based on the appliances ratedheating capacity.1.3 Particulate emissions are measured by the dilutiontunnel method as specified in Test Method E2515.Deliveredefficiency is determined by measurement of the usable heatoutput(determ
5、ined through measurement of the flow rate andtemperature change of water circulated through a heat ex-changer external to the appliance)and the heat input(deter-mined from the mass of dry fuel burned and its higher heatingvalue).Delivered efficiency does not attempt to account forpipeline loss.1.4 P
6、roducts covered by this test method include bothpressurized and non-pressurized heating appliances intended tobe fired with wood or automatically fed biomass fuels.Theseproducts are hydronic heating appliances which the manufac-turer specifies for outdoor or indoor installation.They are oftenconnect
7、ed to a heat exchanger by insulated pipes and normallyinclude a pump to circulate heated liquid.They are used to heatstructures such as homes,barns,and greenhouses and can heatdomestic hot water,spas,or swimming pools.1.4.1 Hydronic heating systems that incorporate a high massheat storage system tha
