Modeling approach and numerical analysis of a roller-hearth reheating furnace with radiant tubes and heating process optimization

Precise knowledge of the heat transfer in a reheating furnace is important for optimizing the slab production process. In the present work, a new comprehensive CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) model for simulating the gas flow, combustion and heat transfer in a roller-hearth reheating furnace with...
