81
Q

Calculating volume of flue gases going up chimney

A

First take BTU / CV
Multiply that by your air needed and excess air then add gas back in

Put variables in the t2 x v2 = t1 x t2 to get your volume than change volume in per min (Divide by 60)
t2 x v2 = t1 x t2
T1-ambient temp plus absolute
T2-Stack temp plus absolute
