'If provision should be made for certain outside air circulation, then increase the building heat loss by, say 25 per cent and obtain by Equation 7 a 27-in. grate and by Equations 8 and 10 a 29-in, grate.
` Experiments at the University of Illinois6 have shown that the capacity p( a furnace may be increased nearly three times by an adequate fan,
