Furnace Depth & Height
• Depth (a) to breadth (b)ratio is an important parameter from both
combustion and heat absorption standpoint.
• Following factors influence the minimum value of breadth.
– Capacity of the boiler
– Type of fuel
– Arrangement of burners
– Heat release rate per unit furnace area
– Capacity of each burner
• The furnace should be sufficiently high so that the flame does not
hit the super heater tubes.
• The minimum height depends on type of coal and capacity of
burner.
• Lower the value of height the worse the natural circulation.

Furnace Exit Gas Temperature
• The temperature of products of combustion at the exit of
the furnace is called FEGT.
• Defines the ratio of furnace heat absorption to outside heat
absorption.
• High FEGT – Compact furnace & Large secondary section
• FEGT < Ash Deformation Temperature.
• Generally FEGT = Ash Softening Temperature – 100.
