50Hz Cross Fired Furnace Natural Gas Glass Melter Furnace

Glass Melter, For Big Capacity of Glass Industry, Cross Fired Furnace

1. Brief Introduction

Glass is a special amorphous inorganic nonmetallic material. The main component is silicate, a non-crystalline solid with an irregular structure.

Glass furnace is a melting device, which is the most necessary and important equipment for the glass industry.

The melting process is divided into five stages as following, each section has its inner connection, affecting each other. If one stage has imperfect performance, it will influence the next stage, and ultimately affect the quality of glass.

The direction of flames of a cross fired furnace is from one side to the other side, which is across the width of the furnace and perpendicular with the flow direction of glass liquid.

Glass melting is a very complex process, it includes physical, chemical and physicochemical phenomena and reaction. These phenomena and reaction lead the mechanical mixed raw materials to complex melting glass liquid.

3. Main component

• Batch charging

The dimension of batch charging area is determined by the different size of furnace and batching methods.

• Melting tank

The melting tank is combined with melting area and clearing area.

• Regenerator

The regenerator as a waste heat recovery device, the combustion air flows through the regenerator, after preheated, it will arrive at the furnace through the port.

• Port

It is the place where the fuel is mixed with the preheated air, also an access for the preheated air in to the furnace and exhausting the

waste gas out.

• Double deck reversing unit

After a period of heating, the double deck reversing unit will change the flow direction of waste gas and combustion air.
