The Profile of the Pusher-Type Furnace and Fuel Consumption

Operating data for two pusher-type furnaces, old and new, of approximately identical length but having different longitudinal profiles were analysed. The old furnace had a partly inclined longitudinal profile and the new one head a rectangular longitudinal profile. Results of analyses showed a higher rate of specific fuel consumption for the old furnace than for the new one. To reduce the difference a possibility was considered of building in an air-preheating recuperator instead of relocating the burners and altering the longitudinal profile of the old furnace. Results of quantification demonstrated that by building a recuperator into the old furnace specific fuel consumption would greatly diminish and would become comparable to that of the new furnace.
