The Effect of Refractory Wall Emissivity on the Energy Efficiency of a Gas-Fired Steam Cracking Pilot Unit

The effect of high emissivity coatings on the radiative heat transfer in steam cracking furnaces is far from understood. To start, there is a lack of experimental data describing the emissive properties of the materials encountered in steam cracking furnaces. Therefore, spectral normal emissivity me...
