This article examines the use of a dual-circuit closed-loop system for pulsation combustion of solid fuel in agricultural services. The results of research on gas self-oscillations during wood waste combustion in a Helmholtz resonator-type installation are presented. It has been established that with certain geometric characteristics of the installation, a significant sound pressure level (up to 165 dB) can be achieved in the combustion chamber while maintaining a low noise level (up to 65 dB), which contributes to increased combustion efficiency and meets environmental requirements. Potential applications of this technology are proposed, including agricultural waste utilization, drying of agricultural products, and heating of greenhouse complexes and livestock facilities.

An experimental study of the combustion of mixtures of hydrocarbon fuels in a water heater was carried out. The dependences of the outlet temperature of the heat carrier on the composition of the fuel in two cases were established: a mixture of methane and propane-butane fuel, a mixture of methane and hydrogen.
