1. Heat conduction:
This means that heat transfer takes place in all forms of matter; solids,
liquid and gases and always from a region of high temperature to an area of low
temperature. Heat conduction can only take place within a body or between two
closely related bodies.
2. Convection: If the movement of molecules within fluids (i.e. liquids and gases)
comes into contact with a physical body where the temperature is increased, this
type of heating is called convection.
3. Radiation: Radiation is as nice as the sun because the sun's rays are heat rays.
The heat rays becomes effective when they encounter a body whose molecules
vibrate in the presence of radiation. This is a physical process in which we do
not realize, however, it is very important for our sensitivity to heat. • Radiation provides a natural basis for the health, safety and
relaxation. • The correct balance between radiation and convection gives a healthy
and natural heat. • Heat that resembles, as close as possible, to nature is crucial to creating
a pleasant room temperature. • With a higher wall temperature, the ambient climate can be lower. • Consequently the air moves gently with sufficient moisture and without
dust. Irradiation with a low ambient temperature gives a natural and healthy
living environment.
The advantages of radiation:
• little air turbulence • Dust-free air • Suitable air humidity • Natural and healthy ambience
The traditional heating systems such as hot air stoves, central heating
or electric heaters are convection.
The disadvantages of convection heating:
• High air turbulence • Dust in the air • Enormous variations of moisture in the air • Unhealthy ambience
The radiation only becomes effective by joining a solid body. The wall
of the room is a solid body.
The radiation heats the outer wall of your home quicker (faster than
convection heating) and radiates heat slowly and continuously into the room.
Convection heaters, stoves, fireplaces and hot air stoves may have
adverse effects on the climate of the ambience.
The heat from a BIOFIRE creates natural and a pleasant radiation.
Living with a a BIOFIRE healthier
and more secure!
The benefits of a BIOFIRE wood burning stove are clearly marked. With
the proper relationship between natural radiation and convection, the tiled
stove is
• Healthy • Natural • Ecological • Economic
In short: When you have this type of heat you have a 100% good feeling.
