Furnace Configurator: The furnace configurator
module provides users the ability to create a virtual furnace. Input
parameters include:
- Furnace
Insulation - Users can create their own insulation from a list of
refractories
- Heating
Type - The type of heating can be either electrical or gas fired
- Burner
Type - Burner type can be either conventional or regenerative
|
Profile
Module: The software comes with a profile creation wizard. Profiles
can be created from the following options:
- Zones
Stepoints or Zone Temperatures
- Distance/Temperature
inputs
- Existing
Part Profile - Thermocouple runs
- Existing
Furnace Profile - Thermoscouple runs
|
Process
Parameters: The users have the ability to vary process parameters
such as temperatures, number of stages, cycle time.
Part
Module: A selection of basic part shapes is provided with the software.
A new part can be configured by supplying new dimensions and material
properties (provided with the software). The basic parts that can be
created are cylinder, bushing, blocks, sheets, flange, pipes, etc.
Part
Placement: The user can run furnace simulations using different
part orientations to determine the effects of part placement on furnace
design and performance. Part placement data include Different Container
hoding the parts (Baskets, Trays, Peers, etc.), part arrangement inside
the container, and container position inside the furnace.
Property
Data: Provides the user with a tool to create new materials, refractory
and fuel.
Heat
Audit/Power Calculations: Calculates heat to part, refractory loss,
refractory heat storage, heat to gases, and heat and energy/power consumed
in different stages.
Results: Results include Time Temperature profile of the furnace and parts, stage
wise thermal loading, stage wise fuel and air inputs in case of combustion
system, and fuel/air demand during heating cycle.
Reports: Results from each calculation can be displayed in report format, can
be directly printed or converted to PDF documents, and exported to Excel
spread sheet.
