Application Self-Regulating Heating Cable Curing of Concrete in Winter

Abstract:

In order to solve the shortcomings of traditional methods of concrete curing in winter, proposed self-regulating heating cable new concrete curing methods. Several aspects were considered, about the heating cable length and heating time, heating temperature. According to energy conservation, heating and heat dissipation balance, derived formulas of heating cable normal use length and minimum. As conclusions is shown, first, the normal length design can controlled better heating temperature, it use the cable length and heating time, heating temperature two parameters to control the other parameters. Second, it is better heating efficiency, can be the overall warming state quickly. In addition, when the concrete pouring temperature is above 10 °C, it is not need additional heating, and it can choose minimum length design formula.
