TO STUDY ENERGY CONSERVATION IN FOUNDRY BY USING PROCESS PARAMETERS OF CUPOLA FURNACE
Main Article Content
Abstract
Cupola furnace is having greater melting efficiency compared to induction furnace. Recent day’s duplexing operation is best option in order to achieve energy efficiencyin this paper we had done design and experimentation related to cupola furnace.. There are various zones in the cupola furnace and reactions. Material size is also important factor because it will level of melting zone and preheating zone. Various melt ratios can be obtained by varying coke ratio and amount of air. Also analysis is done on Design, on the basis of floor space required, volume of air flow required, cost and working conditions. Quantity of heat required for melting is depends upon characteristics of raw material used for furnace charging. In this paper it is suggested that cupola could further assist manufacturers who wish to build larger furnaces for commercial applicationwith reduced cost implication.Metal to coke ratio was about 7:6. It generally depends upon quality of coal i.e. particle size, coke strength, porosity, ash content, sulfur content, moisture used for cupola furnace and it also depends upon preheating zone height of cupola. In order to improve coke to metal ratio stringent material specifications implemented and increased preheating zone height of cupola furnace.
