Subject syllabus:

1. Properties of metals and alloys depending on temperature – thermal conductivity, specific heat capacity, density, linear and volume thermal expansion, coefficient of thermal inertia. 2. Basic terms – combustion radiation in furnaces space, temperature of furnace and lining, external and internal heat transfer, differentiation of charge on thin and thick body. 3. External heat transfer – effect of relation position of grey bodies, balance of thermal flows on surface of lining, convective heat transfer of heated material, resulting equal of external heat transfer, graphic-analytical solution of external heat transfer, approximate calculation of external heat transfer, heating or cooling in liquid environment, cooling of charge in the air. 4. Theoretical calculation of heating of thin bodies – heating of thin bodies in furnace with constant temperature and with variable temperature. 5. Theoretical calculation of heating of thick bodies – derivation of Fourier differential equal of heat conduction, general solution of differential equal of heat conduction, conditions of uniqueness at solving the equal of heat conduction, effect of geometric shape of bodies, their average temperature and heat content. 6. Technological principles of metal heating – final temperature of metal heating, thermal stresses during heating and cooling of metals, placing of material in furnace space, allowed unevenness of heating and degree of warming, metal heating modes and their choice, proposal of metal heating mode, empiric relations for determining heating time. 7. Oxidation and decarbonisation of steel during the heating – theoretical basis of steel oxidation, effect of technological factors and furnaces atmosphere on burn out of metal, calculation of melting loss during metal heating, decarbonisation of steel, ways to reduction of steel melting loss. 8. Calculation of steel heating v basic types of industrial furnaces – heating of round billet and ladle skull in the pusher and walking beam furnaces, heating of round billet and ladle skull in revolving furnaces. 9. Calculation of steel heating v basic types of industrial furnaces –heating of material in chamber furnaces, steel heating during thermal treatment.
