Air flow rates estimated using previously measured exhaust species compositions (From Abbassi, A., and Khoshmanesh, Kh., "Numerical Simulation and Experimental Analysis of an Industrial Melting Furnace," Applied Thermal Engineering 28,2008). 

In the aluminum industry, melting furnaces are made entirely out of monolithic refractories. The heating chamber is lined with high-alumina castable, while sections that are in direct contact with the metal are made from phosphate-bonded plastic refractory. 

W. Trioks, Industrial Furnaces, Fuels, Furnace Types and Furnace Equipment—Their S election and Influence Upon Furnace Operation, 4th ed., Vol. II, John Wiley Sons, Inc., New York, 1967, 358 pp., emphasis placed on heating furnaces (fuel-fired and electric) rather than melting furnaces. 

Indirect-Fired Equipment (Fired Heaters) Indirect-fired combustion equipment (fired heaters) transfers heat across either a metallic or refractory wall separating the flame and products of combustion from the process stream. Examples are heat exchangers (discussed in Sec. 11), steam boilers, fired heaters, muffle furnaces, and melting pots. Steam boilers have been treated earlier in this section, and a subsequent subsection on industrial furnaces will include muffle furnaces.

The industrially most important refractory products are supplemented by specialty products for particular applications. The most important of these is zirconia bricks. They are produced from natural zircon (ZrSi04) with optional addition of quartz or alumina using standard ceramic techniques. They are used in tank furnaces in the glass industry, aluminum melting furnaces and high temperature furnaces. 

Many researchers have used fine wire thermocouples (T/Cs), with and without coatings. Costa et al. [77] used a bare 300 pm diameter wire uncoated Pt/Ptl3%Rh thermocouple to measure gas temperatures inside an industrial glass-melting furnace. Mital et al. [78] used three different diameter (76,125, and 200 pm) fine wire Type R thermocouples to measure the gas temperature inside porous ceramic radiant burners by extrapolating the measurements to zero diameter.
