Bridgewall Temperature
Bridgewall Temperature
(OP)
Dear All, I would like to know how I can go about calculating the bridgewall temperature of a furnace. ( formula, software etc.) This is for safety measure as regards to daily monitoring of the furnace. Thanks.





RE: Bridgewall Temperature
The simplest method would be to get your hands on empirical correlations such as the Lobo-Evans data and make some assumptions about what's going on internally (flux rate etc).

has a little bit on the subject. I use curves for this and find theoretical calculations to be inaccurate...too many assumptions necessary whereas a bridgewall-flux curve results in accurate data fast.
