On the Integration of Wood Stoves for the Space-Heating of Passive Houses: Assessment Using Dynamic Simulation
Laurent Georgesand Vojislav NovakovicAbstract: State-of-the-art wood stoves could be an attractive solution for the space heating of passive houses. The question of the integration of wood stoves in passive envelopes is rather new and still open, the main constraints being the power oversizing ant the heat distribution. The paper proposes a low-resolution simulation approach to provide an insight into the whole-year thermal comfort using a stove, and into the relative effect of the large number of physical parameters involved in the problem. In particular, a simple stove model is developed for detailed dynamic simulations in order to fairly represent the heat emission properties of small airtight stoves. As an example, the methodology is finally applied to a test case, here a typical detached passive house. Pages: 157 - 164 Paper:bso2012_2C3
