  2. Chimney - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chimney

    A = cross-sectional area of chimney, m 2 (assuming it has a constant cross-section) C = discharge coefficient (usually taken to be from 0.65 to 0.70) g = gravitational acceleration, 9.807 m/s 2; H = height of chimney, m; T i = average temperature inside the chimney, K; T e = external air temperature, K.

  3. Flue-gas stack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flue-gas_stack

    A: cross-sectional area of chimney, m 2 (assuming it has a constant cross-section) C : discharge coefficient (usually taken to be 0.65–0.70) g: gravitational acceleration at sea level = 9.807 m/s²; H : height of chimney, m; T i : absolute average temperature of the flue gas in the stack, K; T o : absolute outside air temperature, K

  4. Stack effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_effect

    Examples include Kaprun tunnel fire, King's Cross underground station fire and the Grenfell Tower fire, as a result of which 72 people died. [4] The latter of these was in part exacerbated by the stack effect, when a cavity between the outer aluminium cladding and the inner insulation inadvertently formed a chimney and drew the fire upwards. [5 ...

  5. Funnel (ship) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funnel_(ship)

    The required funnel cross-sectional area is determined by the volume of exhaust gases produced by the propulsion plant. Often this area is too great for a single funnel. Early steam vessels needed multiple funnels ( SS Great Eastern had 5 when launched), but as efficiency increased new machinery needed fewer funnels.

  6. List of tallest chimneys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_chimneys

    Skyscraperpage indicates the 846-foot-tall (258 m) chimney of Omskaya Cogeneration Plant #4 was built in 1965, [23] but it is likely that this date is referring to the construction of the first section of the plant with the smaller chimney. No other references or information can be found to corroborate this claim.

  7. Exploded-view drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploded-view_drawing

    An exploded-view drawing is a diagram, picture, schematic or technical drawing of an object, that shows the relationship or order of assembly of various parts. [ 1 ] It shows the components of an object slightly separated by distance, or suspended in surrounding space in the case of a three- dimensional exploded diagram.

  8. US manufacturers predict growth in 2025 after prolonged slump

    www.aol.com/news/us-manufacturers-predict-growth...

    WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. manufacturers are optimistic that the sector will emerge from a prolonged recession next year, though capital expenditure growth was likely to fall short of 2024's pace.

  9. Fire-tube boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire-tube_boiler

    When the fire stops the warm chimney continues to draw additional air from the interior space until it cools. Excessive cycling can be minimized Modulating boilers can run longer (at firing rates that match the loads) than the non-modulating boilers (which operate at the full firing rate). By using condensing modulating boilers.
