Modelling of Gas-fired Furnaces and Boilers
When published the Monograph - Modelling of Gas-Fired Furnaces and Boilers by J.M.Rhine and R.J.Tucker was hailed as the first practical guide to the use of mathematical and experimental modelling techniques for practising industrial combustion design engineers, developers and researchers. So much so, the book soon became out-of-print and has been much sort after from second-hand sources. The authors, Jeff Rhine & Bob Tucker, have now secured the copyright as well as the rights to reproduce the book as a pdf file on CD.
Contents:
Introduction to modelling
Heat transfer and combustion in gas-fired plant
Scaling and similarity criteria
Theory of combustion modelling
Convective heat transfer
Analogies for physical modelling of convection
Flow visualisation techniques
Flame simulation (acid-alkali modelling)
Radiation transfer from surfaces and gases
Mathematical modelling of steady-state and transient processes
The ZONE method
Case studies describing applications of modelling to Shell boilers, Immersion tubes,
Pottery kilns, Glass melting, Rapid heaters, High emissivity coatings
Copies of the CD are now available for an introductory price of UK£30, including postage and packaging. To order a copy of the CD please contact robertjtucker@btinternet.com or Rhinenergy@aol.com. Payment (£30) can be received via a PayPal account.
