POOR DRAUGHT. 



We have a horizontal tubular steam 

 boiler, fourteen feet long, grate 3x4 

 feet, with twenty-two 2-inch tubes. The 

 fitack is thirteen inches in diameter and 

 twenty-four feet high. Is it large 

 enough t There is a poor draught. 



J.H. 



The diameter of the smokestack is 

 ample and the length is sufficient, pro- 

 vided there are no buildings or trees 

 near which are taller and produce air 

 currents which would hinder the draught 

 of the chimney. The only fault in the 

 construction seems to be the size of the 

 grate, which it appears is too large for 

 the boiler and for the capacity of the 

 flues and stack. I would suggest that 

 you cover the grate bars next to 

 the sides of the fire box with brick so 

 as to reduce the grate surface to an 

 area 2x4 feet instead of 3x4 feet as at 

 present and maintain a clean, thin fire 

 over this area and note the effect. If 

 the draught is not improved the fault is 

 in some other factor. L. C. C. 



SIGN YOUR QUERIES. 



It is never worth while to write a 

 letter and not sign your name. This 

 applies with particular force to queries 

 sent to the Eeview. Names are not pub- 

 lished but unsigned queries never re- 

 ceive the attention which would other- 

 wise be due them.
