Draught is defined as “the pressure difference (between absolute gas
pressure at any point in a gas flow passage and the atmospheric air outside
the boiler) required to maintain flow of air and exhaust gases through the
boiler setting.”
Function of draught:
1. To supply required quantity of air to the boiler furnace for the combustion
of fuel.
2. To remove exhaust gases from the boiler passage to maintain flow of air
and gases.
3. To create pressure difference against pressure losses in the flow passage.
4. To discharge the exhaust gases such that they will not be objectionable or
injurious to the surroundings.
