The 1989 Oil Heat Technology Conference, which has been the fourth held since 1984, is a key technology transfer activity supported by the ongoing Combustion Equipment Technology Program at BNL, and is aimed toward providing a forum for the exchange of information and perspectives among international more » researchers, engineers, manufacturers and marketers of oil-fired space-conditioning equipment. The meeting was held in cooperation with the Petroleum Marketers Association of America. This report documents the proceedings of the 1989 Oil Heat Technology Conference and Workshop, conducted on March 27 and 28 at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) under sponsorship by the US Department of Energy - Office of Buildings and Community Systems (DOE-OBCS). Selected papers have been processed separately for inclusion in the Energy Science and Technology = , The 1991 Oil Technology Conference comprised: (a) two plenary sessions devoted to presentations and summations by public and private sector representatives from the United States, Europe, and Canada and, (b) four workshops which focused on mainstream issues in oil-heating technology.


The objectives of the Conference were to: Identify and evaluate the state-of-the-art and recommend new initiatives to satisfy consumer needs cost-effectively, reliably, and safely Foster cooperation among federal and industrial representatives with the common goal of national security via energy conservation.

This Conference, which was the sixth held since 1984, is a key technology-transfer activity supported by the ongoing Combustion Equipment Technology program at BNL, and is aimed at providing a forum for the exchange of information among international researchers, engineers, manufacturers, and marketers of oil-fired space-conditioning equipment.
