inputs. When the power increases, e.g., the swirl effect
on the fuel injection also increases and increases mixing
between the reactants, thus avoiding change in the ame
length and hence in the location of the hot spot.
19.3.1.2 Example of Generic Laboratory-Scale
Furnace: High-Temperature Furnace
The “high-temperature furnace” at the Praxair
Technology Center in Tonawanda, New York, (Figure19.6)
is a typical laboratory-scale furnace. The furnace con-
sists of nine steel sections; a 25.4 cm long front endcap,
seven 45.7 cm long midsection pieces, and a 22.9 cm long
rear endcap. The cylindrical-shaped, castable ...
