Abstract

A field survey of the conditions to which refractories were subjected in different kinds of service was made along with laboratory investigation such as analyses of fuel and petrographic study of new and used refractories. The work had as its object the determination of the chemical and physical phenomena occurring in boiler-furnace refractories to work out data to aid in choice of firebrick for specific purposes. Each type of furnace construction, each method of firing, each variety of fuel, and each set of operating conditions calls for an unique solution.
