Preheating of metal scrap.
Preheating of metal scrap.
(OP)
Hi all,
I'm having a problem in trying to evaluate the heat exchange between a hot stream of fumes flowing a bank of ferrous metal scrap in order to preheat it before an Electric Arc Furnace.
My biggest problem is how to consider the metal scrap (a packed bed?) and therefore how to estimate an overall heat exchange coefficient.
Does anyone have any idea to suggest me?
Thanks in advance,
L.

Essentially, I need to know the outlet temperature of the fumes knowing inlet temperature and the flow rate.
I need this for the preliminary design of a dedusting plant, it in not required an elevate precision of the result.
