Abstract
In this paper, we describe the application of two
experimental methods on the determination of the heat
release rate during the combustion of wood in stoves. The
experimental methods are the oxygen consumption method
and the carbon dioxide generation method and are adopted
from the field of fire safety science. After outlining
the basic ideas, we show the necessary equations and
analyze the results from an actual experiment. We
conclude that both methods appear to be very useful in
this application
