Abstract

High temperature air combustion (HTAC) technology, which is also known as regenerative combustion technology, has realized energy saving, CO2 and NOx emissions reduction and low-noise combustion. It has been widely applied in various types of heating furnace and has achieved good energy-saving effect. However, there is little application of this technology in small-size furnace. In this paper, a small-size regenerative heating furnace was built in the laboratory and experiments were carried out on it. The result shows that, if the transport frequency was set to a group per min, the center temperature of processed workpiece at the rated conditions (i.e. burner power is 300 kW and switching time is 60s) reached 1133°C. And the efficiency of the heating furnace was 36.8%. Then the derived comprehensive heat transfer coefficient was 168 W/(m2˙°C).
