APPLICATION OF RECONSTRUCTION ANALYSIS IN SOLVING THE PROBLEM OF FLOAT GLASS STAINED WITH TIN

Abstract

In float glass manufacturing, the glass is often stained with tin, which will result in deficient quality. The amount of stained tin is related to five factors: temperature, oxygen content in tin liqnid, bath pressure, total amount of protecting gas, and the thickness of the glass. On the basis of the experimental data, and through system reconstruction analysis, each factor's value range where there is not any tin stain on the float glass is found.
