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...

How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...
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...
I'd like to create a thread with links to 3-D Printer resources, including printers and software package suggestions. My motivations are selfish, as I have a 3-D printed project that I'm working on, and I'd like to buy a simple printer and use low cost software to make the first prototype. There are some previous threads about 3-D printing like this: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-3d-printers-easy-to-use-yet.917489/ but none that address the overall topic (unless I've missed...
