Transformation of Vermiculite Energy Into Mechanical Transformation Energy During Firing in Electric Furnaces With a “Zero” Module

Аннотация

Models are considered for vermiculite heat assimilation and thermal conductivity during heating in electric furnaces with a “zero” module using the internal thermal exergy for mechanical transformation of its grains without an external heat source. Models are analyzed taking account of vermiculite fine fraction and inert material stored energy, and evaluation of their effect on heat assimilation and structure formation of coarser fractions.
