Sawdust Furnace.
Referring also to [page 33] for information relating to the burning of sawdust and shavings S. S. Ingham, in the Stationary Engineer, says upon this important matter:
“Regarding a furnace for burning sawdust, I submit the accompanying cuts. I have built numbers of these oven furnaces for burning this fuel in the south, and all have given excellent results. The dimensions are for 60″ × 16′ return tubular (4″ tubes) boiler with stack 50 per cent. greater area than the flues; a good draft is necessary.” It will be understood that the upper cut is designed to show end view of the furnace whose side is shown in sectional view at the bottom of the page.
