Some features of the C A G C T research furnace, showing the plan view and elevations looking on the front endwall and the blind sidewall. Note the sidewall burners (Bl, B2, B3) and the recuperators (Rl, R2, R3). The "spot ports" are normally used as probe ports but can also be fitted with windows. The "specimen ports" are useable as probe ports and are so counted here. The roof burners, B4-B12, were not used in the present work. r c Ceramic fibreblock wall insulation Checkerwork brick combustion chamber endwall (5% open) WATER-COOLED FURNACE FLOOR Elements 1 - 34: heat sink panels. Panels are series-ganged tor water service as shown by the arrows. Elements 35 - 45: protective cooling panels, made from rectangular-section hollow structural. Fig. 3. Placement of the internal refractory brick walls for the Series 1-XBM2-T single-burner trials, effectively making a tunnel combustion chamber 1 m high by 1.5 m wide by 3 m long, with a 1 m by 1 m square side exit. The walls were 113 m m thick, made of high-temperature refractory bricks, of density 2110 kg/m3. Burner Bl was operated alone, as was the recuperator Rl. 34 * |
