The combustion air will not be able to go out the chimney. Since it has to go somewhere it will leak out the boiler into the boilerroom. If the boiler is air tight the pressure inside the boiler furnace will become high enough that the air will surge or run backwards out the forced air fan. This could lead to combustion outside the boiler, explosion or at least filling the boiler room with smoke and poisonous gasses. The flue on our gas fired hot water system once became jammed shut. It was the smell of incomplete combustion that alerted me to a problem. If it had happened when everyone was asleep or no one was home, the house would have filled with carbon dioxide.
Boiler can be classified as below
Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion Boiler (AFBC boiler) is a type of operational boiler. In a AFBC boiler a little more fluidized bed combustor is added than a conventional shell boiler.
No. There is a specified standard for vessel plates due to safety reasons.
go to where your boiler is and there will be a lever. or a turn knob.Do not turn off the water supply to a boiler.Normally water is heated by a tank (Cylinder) or a tank-less coil or an indirect heater.Unless you know the heating source ask a professional as the very last thing you need is a "boiler" to dry fire and cause a melt down and possible explosion
An explosion could occur.
BOILER EXPLOSION- Caused by a sudden drop in pressure (failure on the steam side) without acorresponding drop in temperature.

Scholars believe it was a ships boiler that exploded.
To comply with various laws, to ensure the boiler and its parts are operating at peak performance and therefore doing its job, to reduce dangers of emissions, explosion. To maintain low running costs and to meet the requirements of warranties
The Sultana, a Mississippi Steamboat, sank as a result of a massive explosion in her boiler room at 2 o'clock in the morning of Wednesday 27th April, 1865.
The act of exploding; detonation; a chemical action which causes the sudden formation of a great volume of expanded gas; as, the explosion of gunpowder, of fire damp,etc., A bursting with violence and loud noise, because of internal pressure; as, the explosion of a gun, a bomb, a steam boiler, etc., A violent outburst of feeling, manifested by excited language, action, etc.; as, an explosion of wrath.

The major factors that are responsible for population explosion are illiteracy, reduced mortality, increased birth rate, and an increase in life expectancy.
For a while IF the boiler has an automatic low water cut off and other safety devices but if any fail you will have a melt down and an explosion

The boiler room is the room off of the ball room. During the third rescue, you must swim up through the ball room to get to the boiler room. To get inside, you need to make the hot water flow correctly through the pipes to the larger red pipe, and make it explode. Then you enter through the hole the explosion made. In the fourth rescue, the boiler room is the room that you enter directly through the opening in the ship. Hope this answer helped! ;)
