The combustor for solid particulate fuels is particularly well suited for burning shelled corn, but is also capable of burning other solid particulate fuels as desired, with no modification required for their use. The combustor includes a rotary agitator extending across the combustor chamber or "burning pot," with the agitator having a plurality of radial arms. Combustion air passes through the hollow agitator shaft outwardly through the hollow arms, the arms distributing combustion air into the fuel mass as the arms rotate therethrough to produce more efficient combustion of the fuel and thereby reduce coagulation of partially burned corn on the internal surfaces of the combustor. The opposed walls of the combustor include at least one pivotally mounted wall, with the angle of that wall being adjustable to adjust the ash dispersal gap between the pivoting wall and the opposite wall. |
