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
- Cooling
section - The software is capable of simulating cooling section and
cooling rate
- Other
Information - Fan, Muffle, Process Gas
|
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 user has the ability to vary process parameters
such as temperatures, Pusher/Rolling/Belt Speed, and process gas flows.
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, 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,
heat to gases, and heat and energy/power consumed in different zones.
Results: Results include Distance-Temperature profile of the furnace and parts,
density profile for PM and MIM parts, delubrication point for PM parts,
zone wise thermal loading, and heat requirement.
Reports: Results from each calculation can be displayed in report format, can
be exported to excel spread sheet and can be directly printed or converted
to PDF format.
