Controller for
pulsed burner operation
KS 98 application
Description
With a number of heat-treatment processes, mainly large-volume batch
processes such as ceramic kilns, annealing furnaces, etc., a considerable
improvement in the transfer of heat to the charge can be achieved through
forced and controlled turbulence of the combustion gases in the furnace.
The advantages in terms of efficiency, product quality, and environmental
aspects are obvious:
· Higher throughput due to shorter processing times
· Reduced operating costs through lower fuel consumption
· Lower environmental effects through less waste gas per charge
· More even temperature distribution inside the furnace due to
turbulence
· Improved product quality for the entire charge because of uniform heat
transfer to the entire charge
The heat energy demanded by a
controller is supplied by several burners that are arranged around the
furnace or kiln. Higher turbulence
results in a better distribution of the heat; therefore, the burners are
not operated simultaneously, but in a programmed sequence. Depending on
type, size, and purpose of the plant, the burners can be fired
individually or in groups.
