ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a furnace equipped with a fuel optimizer for more effectively controlling fuel consumption in the furnace and a method for using the furnace fuel optimizer. In particular, the invention relates to a furnace fuel optimizer which controls combustion air by maximizing radiant section heat transfer with respect to convective section heat transfer while monitoring CO emissions in the flue gas and monitoring the draft below the convective section in order to obtain an optimum control value. The furnace fuel optimizer then regulates the furnace to correspond to the optimum control value by adjusting the air input to the furnace so that continuous furnace operation is possible at maximum efficiency.
