All Answers (8) 1  This is nice information from wikipedia visit. 2  I guess if you assume the DNA is at rest with an average rise of 3.4 A per base pair, then the length of chr1 would be 3.4A * 249*10^6, i.e. 847*10^6A, i.e. ~85 mm, or 8.5 cm.
Boiler sizing includes two things: 1  The heating and hot water capabilities of the boiler. 2  The physical size of your boiler and whether it will fit in the space you have it destined for.
Furnaces and Boilers. Upgrading to a high efficiency furnace or boiler is an effective way to save money on home heating. Most U.S. homes are heated with either furnaces or boilers. Furnaces heat air and distribute the heated air through the house using ducts.Boilers heat water, and provide either hot water or steam for heating. Steam is distributed via pipes to steam radiators, and hot water can be distributed via baseboard radiators or radiant floor systems, or can heat air via a coil.eplacing Your Furnace or Boiler. Although older furnace and boiler systems had efficiencies in the range of 56% to 70%, modern conventional heating systems can achieve efficiencies as high as 98.5%, converting nearly all the fuel to useful heat for your home.
