The furnace of prof. Adamiecki.

In years 30 In the twentieth century, professor of the Warsaw University of Technology, Eng. Adamiecki designed a ductless residential furnace with great efficiency and very high heat accumulation. It was a brick furnace made of oval refractory bricks, facing the outside with white glazed tiles.

The production of these bricks was launched in a brickyard near Warsaw, of tiles and a round furnace channel. The author then managed to get the building to be built 40 Adamiecki furnaces. Despite this, that the furnaces worked perfectly well, they were the first and last furnaces of this type in Poland. After a few years, the Russian prof. Grum-Grzymajło designed a similar structure without a channel, although this furnace had less accumulation and was of more complex construction, it was still popular in Russia. Until today, still ductless furnaces, quite rightly so, they have the greatest recognition.

At that time, prof. Krakowska Akademia Górnicza - Dawidowski has prepared a book on the system and calculation of housing stoves.

In year 1938 has been printed, perfectly worked out, the first textbook in Poland ,;Modern flat stoves ”inż. Karol Szraj-ber. The content of the handbook on the construction of tiled stoves could still be of great use today.

In year 1951 This manual was re-issued by ITB. The author of the book and the inventor of armored furnaces is no longer alive, and his manuals are long overdue. In practice, however, we do not see the use of professional and progressive indications contained in, the towel. Part of Karol Szrajber's textbook dealt with armored furnaces of his idea. Despite this, that the armored furnace was not very successful, however, it was used extensively until the First World War, mostly in military barracks.
