An account is presented of the basic theory relating to the under-regenerator channels in underjet coke-oven batteries. The isolation of the end pairs of flues in each heating wall from the general under-regenerator channel system in underjet batteries extends the scope for heating regulation. Conditions in this type of battery favor the establishment of uniform air and gas flow control along the channel serving the main set of flues. The pressure distribution along the channel can be calculated theoretically, on the basis of equations previously derived on the assumption of uniform gas and air distribution. Existing coke-oven batteries with underjet heating must be investigated to determine the pressure distributions vertically and longitudinally in the under-regenerator channels and the pressure differences between corresponding and conjugate sections of the channels on ascending and descending flows. The experimental data must be used to establish the zones for monitoring and regulating the hydraulic settings in the heating systems of underjet coke-oven batteries.
