This process is called "flue gas exhaust," where hot smoke gases from a fire or combustion process are directed up a chimney or flue to be released into the atmosphere.
The gas from a chimney is typically more dense than pure gas because it contains combustion byproducts like carbon dioxide, water vapor, and other pollutants. These byproducts are heavier than the original fuel gas and contribute to the higher density of chimney gas.
Yes, smoke is a gas among other things. Smoke is a combination of solid and liquid particles as well as gases.Smoke is not a gas, though there can be gasses present in smoke depending on what kind of smoke it is. What we see as "smoke" is really a fine collection of soot and ash floating in an air current cloud.
Smoke and those emissions we usually regard as pollution have very little effect on global warming. It is carbon dioxide, often associated with smoke but actually a colourless and odourless gas, that is the main man-made cause of global warming.
gas particals
A fireplace heats a room by radiating heat from the burning wood or gas. The heat warms the surrounding air, which then circulates throughout the room. The chimney also helps to draw in fresh air and remove any smoke or fumes.
a vent
Yes, along with water gas and soot [and Heat].
No, a pellet stove insert cannot be used in a gas fireplace. They are designed for different types of fuel and operate differently. It is important to only use the appropriate type of insert for your fireplace.
When it burns gas a gas fire produces hot invisible poisonous fumes that include the odorless gas Carbon Monoxide. Those fumes must be vented to the outside of the building using a good chimney or a properly designed flue pipe otherwise they can easily kill you.If a gas fire is properly set up it should not produce any visible smoke at all so if your gas fire is producing smoke you must urgently call a licensed gas fitter to fix the gas firefor you.If visible sooty smoke comes off a gas fire that could be as dangerous to your health as the normal odorless and invisible fumes produced by a properly set up gas fire which vents them through a proper flue pipe or chimney.
This process is called "flue gas exhaust," where hot smoke gases from a fire or combustion process are directed up a chimney or flue to be released into the atmosphere.
All fires needs oxygen to burn and heat rises. So, the fire will pull air into it and the heat and smoke will then go up the chimney. The result will be heat loss from the house, however, here will also be some heat added from the radiant heat of the fire. If you really want to get heat from a fireplace, the best thing you can do is install a wood, gas, pellet or some sort of bio-fuel insert into it.
Gas log fireplaces primarily provide ambience and aesthetics rather than heat. They are not as efficient as traditional wood-burning stoves or gas inserts at heating a room. The design allows for more heat to escape up the chimney rather than being circulated back into the room.
Well is the question the total amount of heat, or total USEFUL heat? In general, a wood fire burns a bit hotter than gas- hence the wood fired pizza ovens. Hoever, gas fireplaces usually have a heat exchanger that draws in room air, warms it, and returns it to the room. It has less air going up the chimney than a wood fireplace (a major point of heat loss) The chimney of a wood fireplace may be more massive brick, which will hold heat after the fire burns out.
It depends on the fire, but if the fuel is largely organic matter and the amount of air is not restricted, the gas from the fire will be largely carbon dioxide and water vapor.
The gas from a chimney is typically more dense than pure gas because it contains combustion byproducts like carbon dioxide, water vapor, and other pollutants. These byproducts are heavier than the original fuel gas and contribute to the higher density of chimney gas.
There is alot of smoke and ashes, intense heat, and a deadly gas.
