Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6803276
Potential energy savings, and effect on performance were determined for four furnaces and two boilers when retrofitted with the following efficiency improvement techniques; (a) derate, (b) vent connector restrictor, (c) automatic vent damper, (d) thermal vent damper, (e) IID's, and (f) combinations of the above. Advance technology systems with high seasonal efficiency were studied (pulse combustion boiler, pulse combustion furnaces, power burner furnaces, power boilers) and the results are presented. Also discussed are the energy saving potential of two heat recovery devices for installation in the flue of gas-fired appliances.
