How They Work
How they work
VioFlame Occasional fireplaces not only look good, they also provide real heat, enough to heat an average size room. VioFlame Fireplaces provide heat and a visual flame effect by utilising ethanol 'denatured alcohol', a readily available, environmentally safe and renewable fuel.
As the fuel is burnt, heat is generated in the process, This heat is then used to heat the room via a process of convection and/or radiance, depending on the model.
The VioFlame range consists of five convection models and one radiant model.
Convection Models
VioFlame convection models are designed with an internal air path located at the rear and top of the firebox. During operation, heat from the burner raises the temperature of the metal firebox. The heated metal exchanges heat with the air inside the air path. The heated air rises and as it does, follows the air path up the back and across the top of the firebox and then out through the front air vent.
As air is expelled from the outlet, more air is drawn in from below the firebox to be heated by the process once more. This cycle continues while the burner is operating and requires no external power.
This is a gentle process of air transfer which causes warm air to circulate throughout the room.
Radiant Models
VioFlame radiant models are a simple combination of a firebox and burner that heat directly through radiant heat (line of sight). Some convection of the surrounding air takes place but most of the heat generated is exchanged in a radiant form.
