Abstract: A heat-resistant body has a cavity for exhaust gas, which is open at opposite ends. The body has first wall portions, each of which delimits a first portion of the cavity. Each first wall portion has an outer region and an inner region which has planar protrusions which each extend from the outside region inward into the associated first cavity portion, the planar protrusions tapering along the longitudinal extent in their width directed perpendicularly to the longitudinal extent and being mutually laterally spaced. Each planar protrusion of a first wall portion is rotated or shifted relative to a planar protrusion of an adjacent first wall portion. The body has second wall portions, each of which delimits a second portion of the cavity and is disposed between two adjacent first wall portions. The cross-sectional area of each second cavity portion is larger than the cross-sectional area of each first cavity portion.

Abstract: This application relates to a method for controlling the combustion in furnace systems, wherein an oxygen coefficient is determined from the temperature in a combustion chamber area and/or in the waste-gas flues of the furnace system and on the basis of an energy balance of the combustion process in the furnace system, the combustion air and the waste gas, and said oxygen coefficient is used to control the combustion material flows and therefore the thermal output and also the combustion quality. The invention relates to a device for feeding combustion air in the furnace system, which device has a chamber, which on a first side has a main duct for feeding ambient air and/or air from the chimney system and on a second side has a pane-washing air duct and a secondary-air duct, both the pane-washing air duct and the secondary-air duct.

Abstract: A small heating system is provided for the combustion of solid fuels, having: a gasification zone for generating combustion gas and a combustion zone for combusting combustion gas; a first blower for supplying primary air into the gasification zone; and a second blower for supplying secondary air into the combustion zone , wherein the first blower can be regulated depending on the desired output of the small heating system and/or the second blower can be regulated depending on a desired oxygen content in the exhaust air from the combustion zone.
