8.1 Introduction
Fossil fuels are commonly used to react with oxygen to
produce high-temperature combustion ue gases to heat
loads in most industrial heating processes, such as metal
heating and melting, glass melting, calcining, and coal
and rubber gasication. The hot ue gases transfer their
sensible energy to heat sinks by radiation, convection,
and conduction. Of these, radiation heat transfer, which is
dependent on the fourth power of the temperature, is dom-
inant in a high-temperature furnace (>2700°F or 1500°C).
Detailed discussions of the heat transfer between a ame
and the charge are given in Chapter 10. There are three
types of ...
