"... In PAGE 57: ... There are no data available for NOx from this source. Table7 -1 summarizes the operating conditions. The furnace operates on fifteen minute firing cycles; a fifteen- minute firing from north side with exhaust on south side and a fifteen-minute firing from south with exhaust on north side for regenerative purposes.... In PAGE 58: ... This affects the quality of the results obtained when compared to the results from the other two models. Table7 -2 summarizes and compares the mesh elements (hexahedral) for these three models. ... In PAGE 60: ...Table7 -2. Comparison of different models for number of elements in the mesh.... In PAGE 60: ... It can be observed from Figure 7-6 that the flame is well defined for single-port model because of the high resolution in the mesh. In order to compare these three models, the average temperatures in the burner plane and on the whole domain over port three are calculated and summarized in Table7 -3. There is a considerable difference in average temperatures between the full furnace model and the other two models.... In PAGE 62: ... Velocity distribution at the inlet for port three (from experiments). Table7 -3. Comparison of average temperatures (K) in the burner plane and on the whole domain.... In PAGE 72: ... The full furnace model is also analyzed for the mass flow distributions in the inlet and exhaust ports. Since the flow is fully three-dimensional in the glass furnace, the amount of mass entering into a particular inlet port does not exit from the same exhaust port (that is opposite to the inlet) and Table7 -4 shows the ... In PAGE 73: ... No significant asymmetry has been observed in the flame region due to port- to-port interaction. Table7 -4. Distribution of mass flow rates among the individual ports.... In PAGE 73: ... The objective of this study is two fold: 1) to find the sensitivity of different temperature distributions by keeping constant average value, and 2) to study the effect of changing the boundary temperature values. For all these cases, the average temperatures over the burner plane and on the whole domain are calculated and tabulated in Table7 -5. Table 7-5.... In PAGE 73: ... For all these cases, the average temperatures over the burner plane and on the whole domain are calculated and tabulated in Table 7-5. Table7 -5.

Average Temperature (K) Sensitivity Test Burner plane Whole domain Test 1 1830 1849 Test 2 1830 1849 Test 3 1831 1850 Test 4 1870 1894 It can be observed from Table7 -5 that the side-to-side profile of the surface temperature distribution has no effect on the temperature predictions. But, increasing the value up to 100 K resulted in an increase of 40 K in the burner plane and 45 K in the whole domain.... In PAGE 87: ... One case used a constant crown temperature, which is 1910 K, measured with experiments and another case is with an assumed temperature distribution such that the average temperature on the crown is equal to the first case. Temperatures in the burner plane and in the whole furnace are averaged and tabulated in Table7 -6. From this study, it is concluded that the crown temperature distribution does not have any effect on the burner plane temperatures.... In PAGE 87: ...
