Heat transfer from glass melt to cold cap: Melting rate correlation equation

Journal Article Hrma, Pavel ; Pokorny, Richard ; Lee, SeungMin ; ... - International Journal of Applied Glass Science

Increasing the efficiency of all-electric melters is a hot topic not only in the waste glass melting industry, where the melting rate directly influences the life cycle of the cleanup process, but also in the commercial glass industry, where increasingly stringent environmental regulations and rapid development of renewable energy sources ask for transformation of traditional fossil fuel technology. Batch-to-glass conversion in an all-electric melter proceeds in the cold cap—a layer of reacting and melting material floating on molten glass. The heat transfer into the cold cap is controlled by convection and conduction in the thermal boundary layer on the meltmore »« less

Heat Transfer from Glass Melt to Cold Cap: Effect of Heating Rate

Journal Article Lee, Seung Min ; Hrma, Pavel R. ; Pokorny, Richard ; ... - International Journal of Applied Glass Science

The feed-to-glass conversion occurs in the cold cap floating on the melt pool in the nuclear waste glass melter. The conversion rate (the melting rate, or the glass production rate) is controlled by the heat flux delivered to the cold cap from molten glass. In an attempt to analyze the intricate relationship between rate of heating, the feed foaming response, and the rate of melting, we experimentally investigated the change in feed volume at different heating rates by using several melter feeds known to exhibit a wide range of melting rates under identical melter operating conditions. As expected, the maximummore »« less

Heat Transfer from Glass Melt to Cold Cap: Gas Evolution and Foaming

Journal Article Hrma, Pavel R. ; Klouzek, Jaroslav ; Klouzek, Jaroslav ; ... - Journal of the American Ceramic Society

In electric melters, the conversion heat is transferred through the foam layer at the cold cap bottom. Understanding cold cap foaming is thus important for enhancing the efficiency of both commercial and waste glass melters as well as for the development of advanced batch-to-glass conversion models. Observing foam behavior “in-situ” is still impossible, i.e., viewing directly in glass melters. To investigate the feed foaming behavior in laboratory conditions, we employed the feed volume expansion test, evolved gas analysis, and thermogravimetry. Combining these techniques helps assess the cold cap bottom temperature that directly influences the temperature gradient at the melt/cold capmore »« less

Heat transfer from glass melt to cold cap: Computational fluid dynamics study of cavities beneath cold cap

Journal Article Abboud, Alexander W. ; Guillen, Donna P. ; Hrma, Pavel ; ... - International Journal of Applied Glass Science

Efficient glass production depends on the continuous supply of heat from the glass melt to the floating layer of batch, or cold cap. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) are employed to investigate the formation and behavior of gas cavities that form beneath the batch by gases released from the collapsing primary foam bubbles, ascending secondary bubbles, and in the case of forced bubbling, from the rising bubbling gas. The gas phase fraction, temperature, and velocity distributions below the cold cap are used to calculate local and average heat transfer rates as a function of the bubbling rate. It is shown thatmore »« less

Heat Transfer Model of a Small-Scale Waste Glass Melter with Cold Cap Layer

Conference Abboud, Alexander ; Guillen, Donna Post ; Pokorny, Richard

At the Hanford site in the state of Washington, more than 56 million gallons of radioactive waste is stored in underground tanks. The cleanup plan for this waste is vitrification at the Waste Treatment Plant (WTP), currently under construction. At the WTP, the waste will be blended with glass-forming materials and heated to 1423K, then poured into stainless steel canisters to cool and solidify. A fundamental understanding of the glass batch melting process is needed to optimize the process to reduce cost and decrease the life cycle of the cleanup effort. The cold cap layer that floats on the surfacemore »« less
