Great difficulties were encoun-tered in properly sampling the gasesin the combustion chamber becausethe composition of the gases atany instant varied throughout thefurnace both laterally and longi-tudinally, and, further, becausethe combustion onthe grate was neverM under complete con-J trol, so that the com-•5 position of the gases| at any point in the~ combustion cham-ber varied in re-sponse to the cha
