Abstract


Energy consumption in Indonesia is increasing every year. Problems that arise due to the increasing amount of energy consumption are environmental pollution and health. The alternative energy that is environmentally friendly can be an option to reduce these negative impacts, one of which is biomass. Biomass is environmentally friendly energy derived from the remains of plants and animals and the potential for its development is quite large. Wood pellet is one of the developments of biomass energy by compacting wood particles which aim to increase the calorific value per volume, increase thermal efficiency and reduce combustion ash. The addition of variations in air flow velocity and flame connector cone which is placed above the combustion chamber of the biomass stove aims to obtain a more optimal thermal efficiency value and a more stable flame. The purpose of this study was to determine the performance of the biomass stove after the flame connector cone was installed. The method used in this study is an experimental method with 2 types of tests, namely, the water boiling test (WBT) and flame visualization with variations in air flow velocity of 10 m/s and 12 m/s. The results of the water boiling test show that the performance of the biomass stove increases after a flame connector cone is installed. Meanwhile, in the flame visualization test, it showed that the dimensions of the flame were smaller after the flame connector cone was attached to the stove, but the shape of the flame and the flame temperature was more stable.
