The Fuels
Corn is a fuel that is widely available in many parts of the country and can be used in the
Multi-Heat boiler. Corn can be purchased in bulk or by the bushel (56 lb bags).
The energy of content of corn is not constant, but approximately 20 lbs of corn is equal to a gallon
of fuel oil. On average, the energy content of corn is between 8,000 to 8,500 Btu/lb of dry matter.
One Btu (British Thermal Unit) is the amount of energy needed to heat one pound of water one
degree Fahrenheit. To get the net dry Btu rating on corn one needs to factor in the moisture
content. Average moisture content for corn is 12-15%. This gives corn an average BTU rating of
6,800 Btu/lb.
Wood Pellet Fuel is a biomass fuel manufactured from ground wood, waste wood, bark, and other
combustibles which is pressed through dies at very high pressure.
Wood Pellets can be purchased in bulk or in 20 or 40lb bags. The energy content of pellets is
more constant than corn because of lower moisture content (4 -8%).As a rough approximation,
17.5lbs of wood pellets provide the same amount of heat as a gallon of heating oil. With these
characteristics, wood pellets burn very efficiency. They are also very easy and safe to transport
and store. Wood pellets have an average net Btu rating of 8,200 Btu/lb.
