Unit System:

The software is designed for both English and Metric units. For Metric the user can select either Watt or kCal/hr as heat rate unit.

Part Configurator:

User provides the shape, material and dimensions of the parts to be heated.

Placement Configuration:

User provides the placement and orientation of the part inside the furnace. For example, you have to tell if the part is heated from all sides or if it is placed on the hearth. In addition, you have to tell if the part is vertically or horizontally placed on the floor.

Boundary Condition:

• User provides air/gas (atmosphere) velocity inside the furnace at each surface of the part. The software has the capability to estimate these values if the user does not have them handy.
• For Radiation Boundary Condition the user provides the view factor.
• For Heat Flux Boundary Condition the user provides Heat Flux value for the surface exposed to Heat Flux.
• For Temperature Boundary Condition the user provides the Temperature of the surface the side is exposed to.

Results:

• With the above information the software calculates temperatures at all internal points of the part during the entire heating/cooling cycle.
• It will give you results as time-temperature plots at selected points inside the parts and also show overall temperature distribution at various cycle time.
• This is almost like having a virtual thermocouple inside your part to simulate the heating.

Reports:

Results from each calculation can be displayed in report format. The results can be directly printed, saved as a PDF format or exported to an Excel spread Sheet.

Operating System:

The new software is developed with dot net technology and runs seamless on XP, VISTA, Windows 7 , Windows 8, 8.1, and Windows 10

Customers Logo:

Customer’s logo is fitted with the software if requested by the customers.
