How does a damper work?

A damper restricts the air flow. In a fireplace, the damper is closed to prevent air from going up the chimney, with a resulting loss of heat in the house, when the fire is not going. When a fire is to be started, the damper is opened to create a draft to vent the smoke. In a wood or coal burning stove, the damper is variable and can be used to regulate the draft. The more widely open the damper is, the greater the draft, and the hotter to fire burns. This sort of damper cannot be closed all the way, because it is necessary to vent slow fires. Sometimes, a stove will have multiple dampers for different purposes. For example, a wood cook stove will have typically a damper on the flue, to regulate the heat of the fire, and a separate damper so the cook can choose to vent the gasses from the fire directly into to chimney, which would be how a fire is started, or around the oven, so the oven can heat nicely once a good draft is established. In other systems where air is moved, dampers can be used to stop the motion of the air. A fire damper is one such system, where the damper is used as a safety device to prevent a fire from spreading.

What is seismic damper?

A seismic damper is a device used in structural engineering to reduce the effects of seismic activity on buildings and other structures. It absorbs and dissipates the energy generated by an earthquake, thus helping to protect the structure from damage. Seismic dampers can come in various forms, such as fluid viscous dampers or friction dampers.


How does a barometric damper work?

A barometric damper is a device typically installed in a chimney to control the draft or airflow. It uses a weighted flap that opens or closes based on the pressure in the chimney. When the draft is too strong, the flap opens to reduce the airflow, and when the draft is too weak, the flap closes to increase the airflow.
