I know the question has been asked on here several times "how many gallons of oil is equivalent to a cord of wood". I came across a pdf file on the Maine state website that compares different types of wood to other fuels.

The 77% efficiency assumption for a wood burning appliance is a lofty goal in my case. I'd be more in the 50% range based on the amount of wood I'm burning.
