Finding Temperature Distribution Across Rad Shields in a Vacuum Furnace

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on validating radiation analysis for a cylindrical vacuum furnace using SolidWorks simulation. The furnace operates at 950 degrees Celsius with five stainless steel 310 radiation shields and 60kW strip heating elements. The user seeks assistance in determining the temperature distribution across the radiation shields. They request helpful links or resources to aid in their analysis. Effective temperature distribution modeling is crucial for optimizing furnace performance and ensuring safety.

Hi,
We are doing radiation analysis using solidworks simulation..And as a part of this project i need to validate it theretically..Hope i will get some help here..

Its cylindrical vacuum furnace,where inside strip type heating elements are placed which are connected to transformer of 60kW.After this 5 rad shields(ss 310) are placed.Operating temp is 950 Deg celcius.How can i find temp distribution across the rad shields.
Please share any links that will be helpful..

This is how it looks..To hold those elements 30mm width strips are used...

Thread 'Race car suspension Class'

Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Cantilever help'

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
