Explain furnace outlet temperature is controlled by pressure or flow

[@boostrand2771]

Nice idea! I can talk about it in a later video. Furnace outlet temperature is commonly controlled by adjusting the amount of fuel entering the furnace. Adding a control valve on furnace outlet is not accepted from safety point of view stopping the flow in furnace tubes while the fluid is kept on being heated is a very dangerous situation.
