Synopsis

Unlock the science behind industrial heat and control.

This comprehensive guide explains how furnaces work, why heat is lost, and how designers improve efficiency in real factories.

This edition compiles methods, measurements, and practical theory for engineers and technicians. It covers the origins of gas-fired furnaces, heat recuperation, and the tools used to analyze and optimize performance. Clear explanations avoid excessive jargon while offering actionable insight for professionals.
  • Principles of heat transfer, combustion, and energy use in direct-fired vs. recuperative systems
  • Practical methods for measuring temperature, fuel use, and heat losses
  • Descriptions of furnace types, recuperation, and regeneration approaches with case-style detail
  • Illustrations and tables that support calculations for real-world applications
Ideal for readers of industrial chemistry and metallurgical engineering who need solid, applied knowledge of furnace operation and heat management.
