It is for making the ship look really beautiful and impressive. It served as the dummy/ventilator funnel.
Titanic and her sister ships were made as a responce to Cunard lines Mauretania and Lusitania. Both of these ships had four funnels so a fourth funnel was put on Titanic, even though it did not need one, so that people did not think the Cunard ships were more powerful. it was also for balance and it made the ship look better.

∙ 11y agoThere was no tunnel at all in titanic.
Actually yes, the fourth funnel WAS a fake- it contained the auxhiliary electricity generators in the event of failure of the main system.
If you look at any photo's of the ship under steam, you'll see that no smoke at all is coming out of the fourth funnel!

What do the smoke staks do for the titanic?
To start off with, on a ship the "smoke stacks" are known as FUNNELS. On the Titanic the forward three funnels vented the smoke and ashes from the 29 boilers below. The 4th funnel was a fake. This made the ship more grand and in proportion, along with giving her a sense of power and speed. The same thing is done today. Two of the Disney Cruise ships have rear funnels that are fake. One of them houses a nightclub.
Why is the titanic the only ship with 4 funnels?
The Titanic had 29 boilers constantly burning coal. There were three functioning funnels on the Titanic, directly connected to the boilers. Each of the three active funnels served two boiler rooms. The fourth was partly functional, carrying smoke up a smaller chimney in the forward half from the galleys. The remainder of that funnel served as a ventilation shaft for the engine rooms.

How much coal did the RMS Titanic have on board when it left England?
The Titanic was a nuclear vessel.... but ran on electricityThe above answer is complete baloney. The data from the white star line shows that;The ship was fitted with 29 boilers and 159 furnaces. (24 double ended boilers and 5 single ended boilers) Over 8,000 tons of coal filled her coal bunkers. The coal fired furnaces heated water in the boilers to generate steam. The steam (215 psi) was then funneled to the tipple expansion engines. Once the steam entered the engine cylinder it created the necessary power to turn the propellers. If the turbine was not in use, such as reverse orders to the helm or entering or leaving port, lost steam would condense in evaporators and the water would be returned to the boilers. Controlling the amount of steam fed to the engines controlled the speed of the ship. Exhaust was vented through Titanic's first 3 funnels, the fourth was a dummy funnel used for ventilation and storage. Many Titanic enthusiasts enjoy pointing out errors in various Titanic movies and artwork by noticing smoke coming from the 4th funnel.
