Mathematical Model of Heat Exchange of a Plasma Furnace

Abstract

The principle of operation of the periodic action plasma furnace and options for describing the heat-and-chemical processes occurring in such furnaces are considered. There are given equations of heat transfer by radiation and convection, features of the thermal interaction of plasma with the solid particles surface, the influence of thermophysical properties and composition of particles on the efficiency of the furnace operation, as well as the possible chemistry of reactions to the parameters of plasma heating.



Keywords: plasma furnaces, thermophysical processes, radiation, convection, plasma heating chemistry
