Abstract
An inlet flue system for conducting particulate-containing gases to the inlet nozzles of a multiplicity of electrostatic precipitator chambers comprises an elongated plenum located generally above the nozzles. The plenum is substantially entirely open at the bottom, and the inlet ends of the perimeter walls of branch ducts leading from the open bottom define a series of outlet openings from the plenum. The open bottom construction leaves the plenum substantially free of upwardly facing surfaces where particulates can settle.
