Why is a chimney called a chimney?
Chimney use to remove the flue gases and smoke from the building and from the boiler, furnace, fireplace, stove to outside atmosphere. Chimney construct as much as possible in the vertical shape to remove the smoke outside easily. Romans used hole in the bakeries to remove the smoke outside but real chimney found in Northern Europe in 12th century.
What is chimney soot?
It is the accumulation of ash and smoke residue that builds up on the inside of a chimney after use.
What is the purpose of a chimney pot?
The purpose of a chimney pot is to enable smoke from a fire to escape. This is common in many properties where there is a fireplace to stop the house from filling with smoke.
Can a pellet stove insert be used in a gas fireplace?
No they cant. Pellets need a chimney for smoke and gas fireplaces have no chimney.
What is a smoke chimney?
A vertical duct through which smoke rises under convection effects, to be dispersed in the atmosphere
How do differences in air pressure help smoke to rise up a chimney?
the higer pressure at the bottom of the chimney pushes air and smoke up the chimney
Why is the air pressure at the top of the chimney less than the pressure at the bottom?
Smoke rises up the chimney partly because hot air rises and partly because it is pushed wind blowing across the top of a chimney lowers the air pressure there the higher pressure at the bottom pushes air and smoke up the chimney

Why is smoke going in the house and not up the chimney?
A chimney will suck air from the house only if there is wind above the chimney. Air movement at the top causes a partial vacuum in the chimney which pulls the smoke up. The smoke could get into the house due to several reasons: there is no wind above the chimney; the chimney is blocked, the smoke is being directed away from the chimney due to other areas of low pressure in the house. You could probably rectify the problem by raising the chimney so that it catches more wind, cooking closer to the chimney inlet, making chimney diameter wider so that there is less resistance to the passage of smoke.

Tree is to shade as chimney is to what?
chimney must be to smoke
Why does smoke cause an egg to go into a bottle?
I don't think smoke would cause that. It is not clear what exactly the experimental setup is, but it is much more likely that the egg gets into the bottle through pressure differences.
Explain this phenomena when a fireplace smoke rises up the chimney faster when wind is blowing outside?
Bernoulli's principle - the pressure on the top of the chimney would decrease, due to the speed of the air.Bernoulli's principle - the pressure on the top of the chimney would decrease, due to the speed of the air.Bernoulli's principle - the pressure on the top of the chimney would decrease, due to the speed of the air.Bernoulli's principle - the pressure on the top of the chimney would decrease, due to the speed of the air.
A loose vent connection at the chimney can cause?
smoke can reverse meaning the smoke( if you are very unlucky) can get in your house . and soms other stuff .
A passage for smoke chimney?
shouldn't your question be," A passage for smoke in a chimney"? just saying
What did a big chimney say to the little chimney?
"You're too young to smoke!"
What cause air pollution other than smoke chimneys?
There are many causes of air pollution other than chimney smoke. Cars for example are a leading cause of air pollution.
