A power outputting apparatus determines whether a parking gear and a parking lock pole of a parking lock mechanism are engaged. In the method includes whereby slag formed from solid fuel ashes during combustion in boilers or furnaces is suppressed by introducing additional air in a post-primary combustion zone to lower the combustion gas temperatures below temperatures at which the ash softens or liquefies and adheres to boiler or furnace surfaces. In addition, the first and second flanges include a first outer surface and a second outer surface transverse to the support member. The straight-lined chiller barrel extends downward into the tank thereby evenly chilling the liquid to avoid thermal stratification that causes vaporization by creating warm spots within the liquid. The segmented sections are encoded using a performance encoding scheme to identify a level of performance associated with the segmented sections so that the network map depicts a performance of the network element over time.
