Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

Results of an investigation of heat transfer in reaction tubes of furnaces for the pyrolysis and conversion of hydrocarbons are presented. Mathematical models of a furnace are developed, and generalized relationships between the diameter of the reaction coil, its length, the pyrogas temperature, and the time of contact are obtained. Optimum dimensions of reaction tubes and coils are determined.
