The objective of this study is to find the temperature distribution of a slab as it moves through the pusher-type preheat furnaces. First, the imaginary planes method (IPM) as a new and applicable method for calculation of radiation heat transfer in industrial furnaces is studied, and the two-dimensional form of this method is used to calculate heat flux and temperature distribution in the furn...

For three-phase six-electrode submerged-arc furnaces, a technical solution has been proposed that allows to determine the contour of an electrode with arc discharge by analyzing harmonic spectrum offset voltage zero point, created artificially. Researches carried out on industrial furnace which melts ferronickel, have confirmed possibility using method for monitoring and controlling operating m...

This paper presents some of the results of the simulation in the radiation section of an industrial boiler using an advanced mathematical model. Calculations are described for the flow, heat transfer, and chemical reaction processes occurring within a gas-fired cylindrical furnace. The calculation procedure is a two dimensional one in which the main hydrodynamic variables are the velocity and s...

This paper presents some of the results of the modeling and simulation of an industrial furnace under the conventional combustion as well as under the highly preheated and diluted air combustion (HPDAC) conditions. The results are obtained using a computer program written by authors in FORTRAN language. It was found that, the HPDAC offers a more uniform and relatively moderate gas temperature p...

Concrete is a building material, which in many cases fulfills the requirements for high sustainability. Industrial by-products, e. g. fly ash or silica fume, are used for improving the fresh and hardened properties of concrete, blast furnace slag for cement production, but also concrete by itself can be used as aggregate to produce strong and durable concretes. In this contribution examples of ...

Steel slags are the by products of steel industries, which forms during reduction process of iron melting. The chemical composition of it changes depending to the melting procedure. Its mineralogical composition also varies based on the cooling procedure. Two different types of steel slag were used as absorbing bed for various concentrations of Pb2+ ions in the form of lead chlor...

Indian electrical industries supply alternators for rectifier loads, arc furnace loads and thyristor load applications to various customers. In such cases the generator line currents are not sinusoidal but are like trapezoidal which are due to harmonics .They may cause problems for utilities and industrial power system. Single tuned (ST) filter is the most commonly used device for both harmonic...
