CMI bespoke Gas Furnace

Purpose

This is a highly instrumented representative scale gas furnace, mainly used for investigating processes for preheating material and heat treatment. This bespoke piece of equipment allows us to study a wide rang of factors (flue and burner configuration, gas/air mix ratio, part stacking) that can affect heating performance, product quality and thermal efficiency. It also provides a mechanism for assessment of heating simulation capabilities, for example within DEFORM-HT.
