Fuel-burning equipment dimensions required by smoke-abatement ordinances. [Dimensions for essentially smokeless operation]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7220826
;
Restrictions on the sizing of fuel-burning equipment imposed by smoke-abatement ordinances are summarized. A study of these tabulations shows that even after many years of fuel-burning practice and experience there is no common standard. Variations in the requirements for the same type of equipment under the same conditions of operation are great. This causes considerable difference in installation costs. Over-all costs being affected, the competitive positions of different types of fuel-burning equipment are also affected. It is apparent that there is a lack of authoritative information as to proper dimensions.
