Abstract: | Most thermal equipment like industrial boilers, ceramic kilns, incinerators, thermal plants for
electricity generation, have specially designed circular areas through which heat passes or generates.
Since these areas are circular in design, fabrication and lining with refractory materials
present technical problems that must be understood. Moreover, angular shapes that are required
to construct circular areas are not readily available for procurement. These segmented angular
shapes are not standardized, so depending on the make of the thermal equipment, suitable segments
must be fabricated to fit. Moulds have to be fabricated and shapes cast out, using high
temperature castables. These intricate procedures for the design and construction of circular
segmented angular shapes have been, exhaustively, treated in this paper. |
