In this work, the thermal environment inside the furnace of a dynamic mechanical analyser was investigated by putting a standard sample in distinct positions inside the furnace. Penetration experiments were carried out in order to compare the measured melting temperature of the sample with the theoretical melting temperature. The thermal gradients were investigated for three distinct modes: com...

We determine the distribution of heat uxes of a furnace for burning ash via a simulation of a heat transfer problem. With paralleliza-tion of the problem this task can be done faster. Within the volume of the furnace, heat transfer is dominated by radiation, where heat conduction through the walls is important. Our mathematical model leads to a system of polynomials and the problem is reduced t...

In this paper a method to make inputting electrical model upon factors that affect melting process of high ultra power(UHP) electric furnace by using fuzzy rule and regression model is suggested and its effectiveness is verified with simulation experiment.

The glass melting process starts from a granular mixture of natural and synthetic raw materials (the so-called batch) and yields a thermally and chemically homogeneous melt made available at a well defined temperature level. The consecutive steps of glass fabrication (forming, annealing, etc.) are not within the scope of interest of this paper. Figure 1 illustrates how a continuously working gl...

in recent years the aluminum matrix composites are gaining wide spread applications in automotive, aerospace, defense, sport and other industries. the reason for this is their exciting properties like high specific strength, stiffness, hardness, wear resistance, dimensional stability and designer flexibility. the present work reports on mechanical properties and microstructure analysis of al-si...

Industrial and experimental induction furnaces are used for melting various types of iron ingots, returned scraps and DRI sponge pellets to produce high purity cast - iron and steel heats. The lowest consumption of electrical energy determined for continuous feeding operation is 0.3 KWH/Kg for the production of cast - iron in a 1.5 - ton industrial furnace and 0.45 KWH/Kg for the production of ...
