Because hot air (and therefore smoke)>llows circular lines of motion, it is cessary to maintain certain relativeroportions of fireplace and capacity of the chimney should bele-tenth of the fireplace opening. That, a fireplace 42 inches tall and 34iches broad has 1428 square inches ofpening. Hence a chimney measuring2 by 12 inches is ideal for this fire-lace, 144 square inches being approxi-lately one-tenth of 1428. Strange as it may seem, an 8 by 8-ich chimney will carry off more smokelan an 8 by 12-inch. The reason forlis is that, as the smoke travels upwarda spiral, two inches are left on each.
