 Encyclopedia: Puddling furnace
As the carbon burns off the melting temperature of the mixture rises, so the furnace has to be continually fed during this process.
Iron is then placed on the grate, normally about 600 lbs, and allowed to melt on top, mixing with the oxides.
More fuel is then added and the temperature raised.

 Furnace - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In American English, the term furnace on its own is generally used to describe household heating systems based on a central furnace (known either as a boiler or a heater in British English), and sometimes as a synonym for kiln, a device used to fire clay to produce ceramics.
If the distribution is through hot water (or other fluid) or through steam, then the furnace is more commonly termed a boiler.
In British English the term furnace is used exclusively to mean industrial furnaces which are used for many things, such as the extraction of metal from ore (smelting) or in oil refineries and other chemical plants, for example as the heat source for fractional distillation columns.
