In this work, the effects of scale on thermal behavior of the slab in a walking-beam type reheating furnace is studied by considering scale formation and growth in a furnace environment. Also, mathematical heat transfer model to predict the thermal radiation in a complex shaped reheating furnace with slab and skid buttons is developed with combined nongray WSGGM and blocked-off solution procedu...

Ethylene cracking furnace system is the heart of ethylene production. It can process different raw materials in the pipe group of each furnace and can produce the main chemical products like ethylene, propylene and ethane. In the real world ethylene plant, there are two operation modes in the furnace system, one has a backup furnace in the system and the other is with all the furnaces available...

Developments of large scale and high-purity generation technique of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) [1] are desired for the practical applications of the fascinating new material. In addition to previously known laser-furnace [2] and arc-discharge [3] techniques, recently, the catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CCVD) method [4] has been developed for the possible larger amount producti...

This paper present the results obtained by simulation for the functioning regime improvement of an UHP Electric Arc Furnace. Because the nonlinearity of the electric arc the EAF functioning regime are perturbed from three causes: the current harmonics, the reactive power and the unbalanced load. In this paper there are study the possibilities of harmonics filtering and compensate the reactive p...

steel industry is one of the most consumption of energy in the world, which is related to melting furnace which result environmental pollution. we calculate the energy consumption and capital cost of dust collectors of venturi scrubber (vs) and electrostatic precipitator (esp) which are connected to melting furnace in respect to industrial ecology for selection of appropriate dust collection sy...
