This diploma thesis was written as a part of the master study program at the Faculty of AgriSciences of the Mendel University in Brno. Its main topic is a literary solution and experimental measuring of biomass boiler operations. This thesis provides a basic overview of energy crops for energy use in the Czech Republic. Different technologies of thermo-mechanical transformations of biomass for energy are described in detail. The last part of the thesis focuses on pollutants from biomass burning that were measured in an experimental test.

The thesis deals with processing of project documentation of the new building constructed in form frame wooden construction. Project documentation contains design drawings needed to acquire building permit. Thesis describes chosen ways of heating objects, their technical construction and principal of function. It states their advantages and disadvantages and compares them according to their purchase and operating costs. It also states progression of costs of electric energy, natural gas and wood pellets and their availability. Part of the thesis is calculation of heat loss and heat energy needed for heating and for service water heating. Based on these calculations the thesis compares purchase and operating costs for period of 10 years and deals with the most crucial factors that affects choice of heating system in current time.

This master´s thesis deals with the constructional and calculation design of the boiler for burning wood and sub-bituminous coal. The work is divided into several parts. First, stoichiometrics calculation and enthalpy calculations of air and flue gas are performed. It is calculated heat balance of the boiler, the boiler losses and the thermal efficiency of the boiler is determined. After designing the combustion chamber thermal calculation is made. Then, the dimensions and individual heating surfaces are proposed. At the end of the calculations are controlling the overall energy balance.

This PhD thesis deals with problems covering production of pallets and chunky wood, using small-scale technologies. There are particularly solved issues focused on fuel embedded energy and return on investment. Further, solid biofuels properties are discussed, and then the study of solid biofuels use in small hear sources was made being focused on the Czech Republic conditions. Particular attention is paid to problems with automatic pellet ignition. The last part is devoted to presenting partial results of a forwarder prototype, which is being solved currently.

The aim of this diploma thesis is to design a gas boiler for blast furnace gas combustion. At the beginning is performed stoichiometry of the used fuel to determine the optimal amount of combustion air and the actual amount of flue gas. Subsequently is determined the overall efficiency, together with heat and steam power of the boiler. The main part of the thesis is focused on the design of the combustion chamber and the dimensioning of heat exchange surfaces. At the end of the thesis are performed hydraulic and aerodynamic calculations to determine the pressure loss on the side of the working medium and flue gas. Drawing documentation can be found in attachments.

This diploma thesis deals with proposal of the steam boiler on combustion uncontaminated wood. For the specified parameters have been implemented stoichiometric calculations and calculations enthalpy burnt gas. In the next part have been dealt with heat balance of the boiler, the efficiency of the boiler, design of the combustion chamber and calculation of particular rating surfaces. The output parametres are temperature, pressure and the amount of steam.

The subject of this thesis is the computational model of existing KWH boiler. There is a short research in the introduction, which deals with combustion heat of considered boiler.  The stoichiometric and balance calculations of gasification chamber ZKG are performed first. The Balance calculations are based on the boiler thermal loss calculations, the losses were determined experimentally. The entire calculation is processed in a computational program for purposses of debugging and manipulation with partial calculations. The computational model that is proposed in this thesis provide better boiler proces understandig. The real boiler measurement is performed for evaluation. The next point is the result analyses, that shows potential boiler efficiency improvements.

This master´s thesis focuses on a design of a heating system in the functionalist villa Stiassni. The building is located in Brno and was used as a government villa. The objec-tive of this work is to select the appropriate type of heating system out of three differ-ent heat sources – an automatic pellet boiler, a gas boiler and an oil boiler. The theo-retical part is focused on the history of the villa Stiassnia, functionalism itself and other functionalist monuments. In the project part, the design of a heating system using the chosen type of heat source, which is a pellet boiler, is described.

This theses work is concerned with assessment of transfer line exchanger behind pusher furnace. First part is describing technical characteristic and parametres. The most important part of this theses is thermic calculation of the boiler. Last following part is concerned with suggestions of constructional modifications of heating surface for proper functioning of boiler. These modifications are demonstrated by scheme in the enclosure.

This thesis is focused in calculation and designing of fluid bed boiler for burning coal and wood biomass in the form of wood chips. The uniqueness of fluidized bed boiler is circulating fluidized layer and cyclone ash separator from flue gases beyond the combustion chamber.Work was divided into several parts due to different parameters of the fuel.. Stoichiometry calculations, emissions calculations, enthalpy of combustion and flue gas desulphurization calculations are performed in various parts.Further, calculating of the losses of boiler and its efficiency comparing to the calculation and design of each heat transfer surfaces was also solved so that resulting size and quantity meet the required specifications.Drawn set of this designed boiler based on calculations is included in the annex to this paper.
