Modeling of the Processes in a Resistive Glass Melting Furnace in Heat Treatment of Glassware with Complex Form

Abstract:

The paper deals with modeling of steady state and transient thermal processes in a small resistance electric furnace for melting and heat treatment of high quality glass products. The device is designed to obtain molten glass, which can meet the multiple requirements for handling glass and is used for producing of artistic glass sculptures. The temperature field distribution has been studied by 3D FEM modeling of heating and cooling processes under variable conditions specified, depending on the supply power, technological limitations and users’ requirements. Experimental studies have been also carried out in order to verify numerical modeling. The obtained results are reliable basis for optimal control, high efficiency and ensuring of required glass quality.
