For the construction of coal dust furnaces for The lining a of the flue h is made up from 7 flue boilers it had been proposed to arrange the refractory or flreclay bricks in such a manner combustionspace at the front part of the flue. In that there will be left an intermediary space b a construction of this kind, however, there will between said lining and the wall of the flue, said n be considerable difiiculties, because a complete space being in connection with the air supply combustion cannot be attained in the part of the pipe d.

An interstice part of said jacket forming the floor of the chanwill thus be provided in the aforementioned renel, said jacket forming also secondary air ad-, a

fractory lining, this interstice preventing secondmission spaces with the bricks and the lining and means in connection with the jacket for supplying air to said secondary air admission spaces. 2. In a coal dust furnace, a horizontal flue,

3. In a coal dust furnace, a horizontal tubular combustion chamber flue having an inner circumferential refractory lining, with spaced air entrance openings therein, a substantially concentric enclosing flue wall surrounding the refractory lining and forming with a recessed portion of the inner lining, a channel for the removal of clinkers, a plurality of spaced circumferentially disposed bricks intermediate the ex terior of the refractory lining and enclosing flue wall, providing circumferential and longitudinal spaces therebetween, and means at one end of said lining for closing said spaces, and means at the opposite end for guiding air to said spaces whereby the incoming air is pre-heated in said circumferential and longitudinal spaces, and passes therefrom through the air entrance openings of the lining into the interior of the combustion chamber flue.
