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...

Blast furnace gas is the byproduct of smelting steel production process, and is the important secondary energy source. It is can be used as fuel for engines to generate electricity for most middle and small steel enterprises. In order to understand the combustion mechanism and provide the basis for the design of blast furnace gas engine,premixed laminar combustion experiments of the blast furna...

This paper deals with a novel interactive approach of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) as an optimization tool for optimizing process parameters of rotary furnace. This approach solves a very challenging problem in the area of rotary furnace i. e. selection of optimal process parameters for producing homogenous quality castings. Rotary furnace involves several critical parameters like flame temp...

AIM To describe a new toxic inhalation syndrome in blast furnace workers. METHODS Fourteen workers developed acute respiratory symptoms shortly after exposure to "air blast" from blast furnace tuyeres. These included chest tightness, dyspnoea, rigors, and diaphoresis. Chest radiographs showed pulmonary infiltrates, and lung function a restrictive abnormality. This report includes a descriptio...

This paper presents the application of DSTATCOM in a distribution network with induction furnace load. Induction furnace is one of the common types of load used in industries like the steel industry. The problem with the induction furnace load is the generation of appreciable amount of harmonic distortion. This distortion results due to the design and operation of the induction furnace. This ha...

Optimisation and improved control of the annealing furnace on a continuous galvanising line was investigated by the construction of a series of mathematical models to predict furnace and strip temperature and strip recrystallisation under both steady and transient states. A modelling approach is followed due to the very poor measurability of temperatures inside the furnace, affected by strong r...

A research worker in soil chemistry accustomed to cbfidk$ions in England is soon conscious in New Zealand of many anomalies in the position that liming occupies in local farming practice. In the major%y of districts in Great Britain the periodical application of lime is an establish& practice, and when this practice is neglected the failure of crops or of pasture is quickly notciceable. Moreove...

–A detailed investigation has done Redmud an Alluminium industrial waste product has done to study its feasibility for use in road constructions. In this study Redmud was stabilized with 2, 4, 6, 8,10and 12 percentages of lime and unconfined compressive strength, Split tensile strength and California bearing ratio tests were conducted at 1, 3, 7 and 28 days curing periods respectively. From the...

LIME (Linda in a Mobile Environment) is a middleware supporting the development of applications that exhibit physical mobility of hosts, logical mobility of agents, or both. LIME adopts a coordination perspective inspired by work on the Linda model. The context for computation, represented in Linda by a globally accessible, persistent tuple space, is refined in LIME to transient sharing of iden...
