Abstract
Biomass has increasingly been used as a renewable energy source, and the possibility of using waste ma-terials for energy purposes has recently been highlighted. Therefore, it is necessary to know the properties of these fuels. The most important is the Higher Heating Value (HHV), and also the Lower Heating Value (LHV), which expresses the amount of energy stored in the fuel. These are determined by an experiment but can also be determined by calculation. This paper deals with the comparison of existing equations for the calculation of HHV with the value determined experimentally by a calorimetric method. The suitability of using the given equation for the given fuels is evaluated. Based on the results of the applied equations, some of them are selected and recommended for the calculation of certain fuels.
