Abstract
Biomass is one of the available renewable energy sources which can be used for thermal energy generation. In this work, the experimental characterization of a pellet boiler has been carried out, with fixed thermal loads, and also in a dynamic mode. In order to perform the dynamic testing, the thermal energy demands of a building with offices and laboratories have been used. Additionally, a model of the installation has been developed with TRNSYS simulation software. The model of the boiler has been validated with the experimental testing results. That way, the accuracy of the simulation is ensured, and the model can be used to analyze how the boiler would operate in a certain installation.
