[QUOTE="Rod Dumbreck, post: 7187320, member: 16496"] Sorry for the vague post, we have a 90kW Eta chip boiler. Under our previous metering arrangement, the two meters inside the serviced properties, added together were 75% of the production meter in the boilerhouse . 3.4 kW Hours per kg, 3430 per tonne. This is calculated from the boiler kg burnt figure and the boiler production meter.The boiler works off the feed screw, so is really calculating a volume which of course depends on the density of the chips. Generally I work off 3 cu m per tonne and the whole lot seems to tally on my spreadsheet over the year. We chip on the farm, so no weigh bridge involved. [/QUOTE]
