Do the electric furnaces operate the same as a gas furnace?
The simple answer is yes it produces heat and is distributed to the rooms in your house; unless however, you are using electric baseboard heat which works on convection, or electric radiant heating panels.
How does a furnace generate heat?
In a normal house furnace a fan forces air through an exchanger. This usually consists of some pipes or tubes. A fire on the outside of the tubes heats the air inside the tubes as it passes. The force of the fan also pushes the air along duct work and the warmed air comes out floor vents or regesters. The suction of the fan draws air from through out the house through the larger wall mounted cold air vents. The air passes through a filter and then into the fan where it is then sent to the exchanger. The thermostat that you set for the desired temperature measures the room temperature. When the temperature falls below the set point the thermostat sends a signal to the furnace to start the fan and then turn on the flame. When the temperature at the thermostat rises above set point the signal to the furnace is shut down, the fire goes out and the fan stops.
What is an ignitor on a gas furnace?
An ignitor on a gas furnace is an electric spark. An electric current is sent along a conductor, when it reaches the end the electric energy jumps across a gap to another conductor. This jumping electricity (think of it as a really tiny lightning bolt) creates a spark hot enough to ignite fuel.
What is the function of septum valves in blast furnace?

Is furnace volume measured in square feet or cubic feet?

Square feet is used to measure the surface area of a space, while cubic feet measures the total three-dimensional volume.
