Claims (21)

1. The furnace for glass melting (10) consists of a first-flow end (6), a second-flow end (8), and a canopy (22) extending from the first-flow end to the second-flow end. The first-flow end is positioned at the first-flow end of the second-flow end. A container (32) supplies the glass-forming material (30) to the first-flow end of the furnace. At least one burner (34) supplies heat to the glass-forming material at the first-flow end of the furnace, and an exhaust pipe (60) is connected to the second-flow end of the furnace. The exhaust pipe is positioned at the second-flow end of at least one burner (34). The arrangement is such that the combustion gases produced by at least one burner can pass through the exhaust pipe. 2. The furnace for melting glass (10) of claim 1, in which at least one burner (34) is installed through the roof (22) and the furnace 3. The furnace for glass melting (10) of claim 1, in which at least one of the burners (34) is a number of burners. 4. The furnace for glass melting (10) of claim 3 also contains at least one burner (38) at the downstream end of the furnace, where more than 50 percent of the burners (34) are positioned at the upstream end of the furnace. 5. The furnace for melting glass (10) of claim 4, where all burners (34, 38) are positioned at the upstream of the exhaust pipe (60). 6. The furnace for glass melting (10) of any of the preceding claims, where the exhaust pipe (60) is the exhaust stack. 7. A furnace for melting glass (10) of any of the claims 1 through 5, where the exhaust pipe (60) is a number of exhaust stacks. 8. The furnace for glass melting (10) of any of the preceding claims, in which the exhaust pipe (60) is placed at the wall of the discharge end (16) of the furnace. 9. Furnace for glass melting (10) of any of the claims 1 through 7, where the exhaust pipe (60) is placed on the side wall (18a,18b) of the furnace. 10. The furnace for melting glass (110) of claim 1, in which at least one burner (34) is a number of burners installed through the roof (22) of the furnace. All burners are designated at the upstream of the exhaust outlets (60a, 60b) and the exhaust pipe consists of at least two exhaust outlets. 11. The furnace for melting glass (110) of claim 10, where the exhaust outlets (60a, 60b) are a number of flues. 12. The furnace for glass melting (10) of either claim 1 to 7 or 9 to 11, the end of the flow end (6) with the wall of the end for packing (14) and the end of the flow end (8) with the wall of the end for discharge (16), exhaust pipe with a center line (72) which is positioned at least approximately 70 percent of the distance from the wall of the end for packing of the furnace to the wall of the end for discharge of the furnace. 13. The furnace for glass melting (10) of claim 12, where the centerline of the exhaust pipe (72) is positioned at least approximately 80 percent of the distance from the wall of the packing end (14) of the furnace to the wall of the discharge end (16) of the furnace. 14. Furnace for glass melting (10) of claim 12, where the furnace consists of two side walls (18a, 18b) and two exhaust pipes (60a, 60b), each exhaust pipe is separated on the sides of the side walls. 15. Method of operation of a glass melting furnace (10) with a head end (6) and a tail end (8). Such a method consists of the following steps: bringing the glass-forming material (30) to the head end of the furnace; heating the glass-forming material with at least one burner (34), at least one of which is positioned at the head end of the furnace; and extracting the combustion gases generated by at least one burner in the furnace from the exhaust pipe (60) positioned at the tail end of the furnace. 16. The procedure of the claim in paragraph 15, in which the furnace (10) has a discharge end wall (16) positioned at the end of the furnace's flow end (8) and the packing end wall (14) positioned at the end of the furnace's flow upstream (6), and also includes the procedure of centerline determination (72) of the exhaust pipe (60) of at least approximately 70 percent of the distance from the packing end wall of the furnace to the discharge end wall of the furnace. 17. The procedure under claims 15 or 16, in which a furnace has a packing half (80) and an exhaust half (84), involves bringing the glass-forming material (30) to the packing half of the furnace; heating the glass-forming material with a number of burners (34), the burners providing energy and forming the combustion gases, the majority of which is transferred to the packing half of the furnace; and extracting the combustion gases from the exhaust pipe (60) connected to the exhaust half of the furnace. 18. The method of claim 17, in which the centerline (72) of the exhaust pipe (60) is determined, is positioned at least approximately 80 percent of the distance from the wall of the packing end (14) of the furnace (10) to the wall of the discharge end (16) of the furnace. 19. The method of claim 17 in which the suction procedure includes the arrangement of the flow of combustion gases inside the furnace (10) in the direction from the filling half (80) of the furnace to the discharge half (84) of the furnace. 20. The method of claim 17 in which the energy from the burner (34) that is introduced into the half for filling (80) of the furnace (10) is at least twice the energy from the burner that is introduced into the half for discharge (84) of the furnace. 21. Any of the methods of claims 15 through 20 include the following steps: creating a pressure difference between the upstream end of the furnace and the downstream end (8) of the furnace, the pressure at the downstream end of the furnace is lower than the pressure at the upstream end of the furnace; extracting the smoke and combustion gases from the exhaust pipe (60) in a manner connected to the downstream end of the furnace, the pressure at the exhaust pipe is lower than the pressure at the downstream end of the furnace; and releasing the molten glass from the downstream end of the furnace.
