* At normal operatiing condition, power and flue gas measurement were taken
Then, excess air reduced by closing damper in all FD and ID secondary air fan
Fuel feeding rate is increased from 21 rpm to 30 rpm
Again power and flue gas measurement were taken
Suggesions : 1) Keep furnace draft + 5mm
2) Flue gas should be light gray at chimny top
3) keep Lowest possible damper position
