Excerpt from Tests of Coal and Briquets as Fuel for House-Heating Boilers The results indicate that coals containing the higher percentages of fixed carbon give the least smoke and are the most economical. While these tests were going on a general inquiry was being made into the question of central heating plants. The results obtained in this inquiry, when compared with the results of the tests on house heating boilers, Show that such plants are economical for the house holder and that they solve a part of the smoke problem in the cities. A brief summary of the results of this investigation is given on page 41. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Tests of Anthracite Coal in House Heating Boilers: Thesis During the past two years a number of house heating boiler trials have been conducted by the Engineering Experiment Station of the university of Illinois and the Fuel Testihg'pi - vision of the U. S. Geological Survey for establishing a standard method of testing, and determining the rela-f tive value of various fuels for use in residence heating boileré The tests described in this thesis were made in conjunction with those of the Engineering Experiment Station under a Mercer, and an Arco steam heating boiler, located in the Mechanical Engineering Laboratory at the University of Illinois.

Excerpt from Calorimetry The science of photometry was then developed to measure by comparison with an accepted standard the amount of light obtain able from a given quantity of the gas tested. Later, gas being found useful for heating and cooking and for numerous industrial purposes, its thermal or heat producing quality became important. With the introduction of incandescent mantles for gas lighting, the heating value began to assume greater im portance than the illuminating power and as, at present, 80% to 90% of the gas sold is used for its heat, the fairest test of its value to the majority of consumers is the determination of its heating quality. This cannot be deduced from the results of photometric tests as there is no definite relationship between the light and the heat giving qualities, it being possible to change the composition of the gas materially, substituting one non-illuminant of high heating value {or another giving much less heat without causing any decided change in the candle power. Therefore, the heat producing or calorific value must be sought by other means. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Combustion Experiments With North Dakota Lignite The Bureau of Mines is conducting an extensive investigation of methods of burning different fuels under power-plant boilers and in house-heating furnaces, with a view to effecting improvement of the methods or equipment, thus decreasing waste and promoting a more efficient utilization of fuel resources. Some of the publications that the bureau has issued on the economical use of coal are Tech nical Paper 80, Hand Firing Soft Coal Under power-plant Boil ers; Technical Paper 97, Saving Fuel in Heating a House; Technical Paper 137, Combustion in the Fuel Bed of hand-fired Furnaces; Technical Paper 139, low-rate Combustion in Fuel Beds of hand-fired Furnaces; Technical Paper 180, Firing Bitu minous Coals in Large house-heating Boilers; Technical Paper 199, Five Ways of Saving Coal in Heating Houses; and Bulletin 135, Combustion of Coal and Design of Furnaces. This paper gives the results of combustion tests of North Dakota lignite burned in two forms - natural lignite as it comes from the mine and the carbonized residue from gas retorts. The tests were made by burning the fuels at various rates in experimental furnaces and by studying the processes of combustion. The information thus obtained was used in determining some of the general principles on which a successful furnace can be developed for use under power plant boilers and for house-heating apparatus. A small furnace of this character was designed and tested with promising results. All the experiments were conducted in the fuel-efficiency laboratory of the Bureau of Mines, at Pittsburgh, Pa.

Excerpt from Why and How Coke Should Be Used for Domestic Heating As a part of a general investigation of more efficient methods of utilizing the fuel resources of the country and the elimination Of smoke in cities, the Bureau of Mines is conducting experiments on the burning of coke and other fuels in house-heating furnaces, with the Object of demonstrating that soft coal can be so prepared by con version into smokeless fuels, coke and gas, that all the materials in the coal are used to best advantage.
