Induction heating furnaces are employed for vacuum distillation process to recover and consolidate heavy metals after electrorefining operation. Induction heating furnaces of suitable heating rates are required to be developed for this purpose. Hence it is planned to set up a mock-up induction furnace which will simulate the conditions to be realized in actual induction heated vacuum distillati...

A coupled reactor/furnace simulation has been conducted for a 100 kt/a SL-II naphtha cracking furnace containing both long-flame and radiation burners. The computational fluid dynamics approach was used to simulate the flow, combustion and radiative heat transfer in the furnace. The software packages COILSIM1D and SimCO were used to account for the cracking process in the reactor coils. The sim...

This paper analyzes how feasible it is to use electric arc furnace slag as coarse aggregate, and blast furnace dust as fine aggregate in the manufacture of hot asphalt concrete for roads. Three mixtures were designed using the Ramcodes methodology, the M1 mixture of control with conventional materials, the M2 mixture replacing 50% and the M3 mixture replacing 100% of the conventional aggregates...

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...
