Calcolo della potenza • Un forno richiede energia per riscaldare un materiale e per conservarlo ad una certa temperatura • La potenza totale PT è data da PT = PM + Pr + Pi + PB + Pc • PM= potenza per riscaldare la massa termica interna • Pr = potenza persa per perdite radiative • Pi = calore trasmesso attraverso la coibentazione • PB = calore perso per i ponti termici • Pc = calore perso per convenzione • La potenza di mantenimento PH PH = Pr + Pi + PB + Pc Thermal Technology
Heat Conduction • Conduction is heat transfer by means of molecular agitation within a material without any motion of the material as a whole. Energy is transferred down the colder end because the higher speed particles will collide with the slower ones with a net transfer of energy to the slower ones. • For heat transfer between two plane surfaces, such as heat loss through the wall of a house, the rate of conduction heat transfer is: Q = heat transferred in time = k = thermal conductivity of the barrier A = area T = temperature d = thickness of barrier Thermal Technology

Convezione • La potenza termica scambiata per convezione tra una superficie a temperatura T2 e un fluido a T1 è Pc = hS(T2 - T1) • h è il coefficiente di scambio termico per convenzione (W/m2K), dipende dalla geometria della suerficie dalla velocità e dalle proprietà fisiche del fluido Thermal Technology
What is Temperature? • In a qualitative manner, we can describe the temperature of an object as that which determines the sensation of warmth or coldness felt from contact with it. • When two objects are put in contact the object with the higher temperature cools while the cooler object becomes warmer until a point is reached after which no more change occurs. • When the thermal changes have stopped, we say that the two objects (physicists define them more rigorously as systems) are in thermal equilibrium. • We can then define the temperature of the system by saying that the temperature is that quantity which is the same for both systems when they are in thermal equilibrium. Thermal Technology
Absolute temperature • From statistical mechanics T characterize the internal energy of a system of N identical indistinguishable particles (Maxwell Boltzman distribution). N = n1 + n2 + n3 + ……. ni = Ngie-Ei • The partition function of a system in statistical equilibrium is defined as: Z = gie- Ei • The internal energy is calculated from the average energy U = NEaverage E average = -d(lnZ)/d = kT Thermal Technology
Temperature sensors • Contact Sensors • Contact temperature sensors measure their own temperature. One infers the temperature of the object to which the sensor is in contact by assuming or knowing that the two are in thermal equilibrium, that is, there is no heat flow between them. • Many potential measurement error sources exist from too many unverified assumptions. Temperatures of surfaces are especially tricky to measure by contact means and very difficult if the surface is moving. • Non-Contact Sensors • Most commercial and scientific non-contact temperature sensors measure the thermal radiant power of the Infrared or Optical radiation that they receive and one then infers the temperature of an object from which the radiant power is assumed to be emitted Thermal Technology
Pyromethers operating principle • The Wiens’ law: (max) ~ 2900/T Thermal Technology
Contact sensors • Thermocouples Based on the Seebeck effect that occurs in electrical conductors that experience a temperature gradient along their length. • Thermistors Thermistors are tiny bits of inexpensive semiconductor materials with highly temperature sensitive electrical resistance. • Liquid-In-Glass Thermometers The thermometer that checked your fever when you were young was a specialized version of this oldest and most familiar temperature sensor. • Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs) RTDs are among the most precise temperature sensors commercially used. They are based on the positive temperature coefficient of electrical resistance. • Bimetallic Thermometers The simple mechanical sensor that works in most "old-fashioned" thermostats based on the fact that two metals expand at different rates as a function of temperature. Thermal Technology
Thermocouples • Thermocouples are based on the principle that when two dissimilar metals are joined a predictable voltage will be generated that relates to the difference in temperature (Seebeck effect) • The AB connection is called the "junction". When the junction temperature, TJct, is different from the reference temperature, TRef, a low-level DC voltage, E , will be available at the +/- terminals. • The value of E depends on the materials A and B, on the reference temperature, and on the junction temperature. E = ∫(Tjcs,Tref)(A - B)dT • A = thermopower of metal A • In Chromel-Alumel (Type K) (A - B)~40 µV/°C (22 µV/°F) Thermal Technology
Thermocouple classification Thermal Technology
Thermocouple Color Codes • Thermocouple wiring is color coded by thermocouple types. Different countries utilize different color coding. Thermal Technology
Selecting a thermocouple • The selection of the optimum thermocouple type (metals used in their construction) is based on application temperature, atmosphere, required length of service, accuracy and cost • Wire Size of Thermocouple: • When longer life is required for the higher temperatures, the larger size wires should be chosen. When sensitivity is the prime concern, the smaller sizes should be used. • Length of ThermocoupleProbe: • Since the effect of conduction of heat from the hot end of the thermocouple must be minimized, the thermocouple probe must have sufficient length. Unless there is sufficient immersion, readings will be low. It is suggested the thermocouple be immersed for a minimum distance equivalent to four times the outside diameter of a protection tube or well. • Location of Thermocouple: • Thermocouples should always be in a position to have a definite temperature relationship to the work load. Usually, the thermocouple should be located between the work load and the heat source and be located approximately 1/3 the distance from the work load to the heat source. Thermal Technology

Molybdenum disilicide heating elements • Moly-D heating elements are manufactured by powder metallurgy. They consist of molybdenum disilicide withadditives that prevent recrystallization. Since Moly-D iscompletely stable up to 1800ºC (3270ºF), it surpassesother heating element types for high temperatureperformance. • The resistance of Moly-D elements to oxidation lies inthe formation of an impermeable quartz, or glass-likeprotective layer which re-forms when heated if damagedin operation. • Moly-D elements become somewhat ductile atapproximately 1200ºC (2190ºF).

SiC radiators • The SiCrad material (from Furnace Concepts) is a cast ceramic material, which is fired at elevated temperature.Because of its excellent thermal shock resistance and high thermal conductivity it is an excellent material for use as immersion protection and radiant tubes for use in many molten materials. • As thermocouple protection tubes the material offers excellent thermal conductivity, which allows the optimum temperature measurement. SiCrad also exhibits a resistance to abrasion and wetting by molten metals. • When used as a radiant tube for electric and gas heating the SiCrad offers the same characteristics as mentioned above coupled with the ability to uniformly distribute and efficiently dissipate the energy from the heat source to the molten bath. omposition Mechanical Properties 64% Silicon carbide 27% Alumina 4% Silica5% Other trace materials Thermal Technology
