Abstract

Abstract Increasing cost of fuels and the growing pressure of competition make apparent the necessity of heat salvage in metallurgical furnaces. The paper asserts that there are few industrial furnaces that cannot be made 20 per cent more efficient by the installation of heat recuperators. A properly applied recuperator may result in an increased efficiency of 50 per cent. The actual value of heat salvaged from the waste gases by recuperation or regeneration is little appreciated by the average engineer.
