description Commonly sold bioethanol fireplaces can represent significant heat source, however due to their intermittent operation the heat energy output is strongly uneven. The aim of this study was to determine the possibilities of heat energy accumulation by individually built ethanol fireplace intended for commonly sold ethanol burner installation. For the measurements of heat energy output, long term tests of the individually built ethanol fireplace with 1, 2 and 3 consecutive combustion periods in a unique calorific room were performed. Accumulation ethanol fireplace has proven high ratio between accumulated heat energy after the ethanol burner last burn-out reaching from 21.4 to 48.4% according to the number of consecutive fuel doses. By usage of the described ethanol fireplace the time of heat energy releasing was increased from approximately 1.15, 2.35 and 3.55 h in case of ethanol burner usage in a non-accumulation fireplace for 1, 2 and 3 fuel doses to 6.5, 11 and 15 h in case of accumulation ethanol fireplace usage. This was also strongly connected with average heat output ranging between 2.54 to 2.47 kW in the case of ethanol burner usage in a non-accumulation ethanol fireplace and 0.38 to 0.59 kW in the case of accumulation ethanol fireplace usage.
