The slant height of theheater should be about twice the depth of the flue, so that the areabetween the pipes shall equal thefree area of the Hue. Large vent fines of this kindshould always be provided withdampers for closing at night, andfor regulation during strong winds.

Example.—It is desired to discharge 1,300 cubic feet af air per minutethrough a flue having an area of 4 square feet and a heighl of 30 feet. If thecflicicncy of an aspirating eoil is 400 B. T. 1., how many square feet of surfacewill be required to move this amount of air when the temperature of the roomis 70° and the outside temperature is 60°? \//£\A/
