Furnace design
Thread Content
I need to design a furnace that is heated by gas, with a temperature of around 800 degrees. There is a steel chamber inside that prevents air from entering, and the temperature inside that chamber is over 600 degrees. How many considerations are involved in such a design? Please advise. I’m completely confused now
1. Heat Transfer: a. The heat amount that causes an increase in the temperature of the material inside the furnace per unit time, b. Are there any chemical reactions? If so, calculate the heat released and absorbed. c. Is there any exhaust gas? d. Calculate heat loss due to insulation issues, etc. 2. Automation: It’s not meant to be operated manually, right? Level control and temperature control in logistics. . . . 3. Fluid mechanics: If the material is in a continuous flow as it passes through the furnace, it is also necessary to select the parameters of the relevant equipment based on the residence time. 4. Safety verification: For high-temperature equipment, check whether it is under pressure, as well as its strength and degree of deformation
