| dc.description.abstract | Department of Energy figures reveal that in 1979 the forging and stamping operations were the primary consumers of energy (27%) within the 'Fabricated Metals Products Industry' (SIC 34). Industrial furnaces utilized by the forging industry often operate at less than 10% thermal efficiency with a design efficiency of 20-25%. This paper deals with relatively low to moderate cost, wide application, retrofit technologies that can be applied to a wide range of forge furnaces. Several different aspects of energy conservation will be covered with the emphasis on recuperators. The subject matter is intended to motivate individual listeners to install cost effective recuperative equipment and to apply other schemes to reduce fuel consumption. | en |
