Abstract
The potential for recovering energy from low pressure furnace flue products is limited when standard heat recovery equipment is utilized. Efficient energy recovery can be accomplished by providing a flue gas side pressure drop across a heat exchanger placed in the path of the combustion gases. This paper summarizes practical methods of providing a driving force to accomplish this pressure drop and discusses optimization techniques for economical heat recovery.
