🔍 Key Concepts

• Boiler panting as unstable combustion or fluctuating furnace pressure • Relationship between air supply and fuel supply in maintaining steady combustion • Effect of air pressure vs fuel pressure/temperature on flame stability

💭 Think About

• Think about what causes the furnace to alternately flare up and die down. Is it usually too much fuel, too little air, or the wrong balance between them? • Which control (air pressure, fuel pressure, or fuel temperature) will most directly smooth out rapid changes in combustion rather than making them worse? • If the boiler is panting, would increasing fuel input help, or should you focus on stabilizing the combustion conditions first?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm what panting means in a boiler: is it pressure fluctuation due to unstable firing? • Decide whether panting is more often linked to excess fuel or insufficient/variable air. • For each option, ask: does this change make the flame more or less likely to surge and die back? Eliminate any that would logically increase instability.
