This phase occurs after the fixed ignition phase. The duration of this phase is a variable period that lasts until the moment of fulfillment of the ignition requirements or until the moment when the flue gas temperature of 50 °C is reached. In case the furnace ignition requirement is met before the expiry of the duration of this phase, it is stopped and the next phase follows, which is the stabilization phase. -
