In-time-simulation of the heat-up phase of melting crowns
Tension, load & expansion to the max – without any damage
Computer-assisted optimisation of complex components has become a standard feature in industrial planning and design. We offer this service specifically for furnace construction. With more than 10 years experience in the field of finite element simulation of the behavior of refractory under intense mechanic and thermal strain, we offer design and development for reliable and authentic modelling. You can rely on our specialist’s knowledge acquired at more than 90 furnace inspections per year.
Better than planned – Computer-assisted optimisation of components
Individual components can also be verified regarding thermal and mechanical strain. Hereby the design optimisation (e.g. the skewbacks of a glass melting crown) is regarded as equally important as the detection of weak spots in unsettled cases of damage.
- transient heat transfer in complex components
- deformation and thermomechanic load
- predictions of component behavior (e.g. crown rise at heat-up)
Your benefits:
- definition of critical spots with the highest thermomechanical load
- optimisation of the design
- extension of the lifespan
- adjustment of the heat-up strategy to minimise strain in the components
In-time-simulation of the heat-up phase of melting crowns
To a large extent, the life span of a melting tank depends on the professional handling of the heat-up. We optimise the stress distribution in the crown and steelwork by models tailored to your requirements. We furthermore provide detailed predictions for the steel adjustment to minimise the risk of heat-up defects.
Your benefits:
- anticipatory operating at heat-up instead of sole reacting
- minimising the mechanical strain in furnace components
- optimally heated furnace for a longer lifespan
- prevention of heat-up defects
- assured start of production
