Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Swingle's Catechism of Steam, Gas, and Electric Engineering
Ans. From the furnace, located under the front end of the boiler, the gases pass under and along the sides of the shell, back to the rear end, the upper part of which is arched over. The route is here reversed, and the products of combustion return through the fines towards the front end and thence through the breeching into the stack.
