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

Viscosity of glass-forming melt at the bottom of high-level waste melter feed cold caps: Effects of temperature and incorporation of solid components

Journal Article Lee, Seung Min ; McCarthy, Benjamin P. ; Hrma, Pavel R. ; ... - Journal of American Ceramic Society

At the final stages of conversion of melter feed (glass batch) to molten glass, the transient glass-forming melt becomes a continuous liquid phase encapsulating dissolving solid particles and gas bubbles that produce primary foam at the bottom of the cold cap (the reacting melter feed in an electric glass melting furnace). The glass-forming melt viscosity plays a dominant role in primary foam formation, stability, and eventual collapse, thus affecting the rate of melting (the glass production rate per cold cap area). For several melter feeds designed for nuclear waste vitrification, we have traced the glass-forming melt viscosity during the finalmore »« less

Mathematical modeling of cold cap: Effect of bubbling on melting rate

Journal Article Pokorny, Richard ; Kruger, Albert A. ; Hrma, Pavel R. - Ceramics--Silikaty, 58(4):296-302

The rate of melting is a primary concern in the vitrification of radioactive wastes because it directly influences the life cycle of nuclear waste cleanup efforts. To increase glass melting performance, experimental and industrial all-electric waste glass melters employ various melt-rate enhancement techniques, the most prominent being the application of bubblers submerged into molten glass. This study investigates various ways in which bubbling affects melting rate in a waste glass melter. Using the recently developed cold cap model, we suggest that forced convection of molten glass, which increases the cold cap bottom temperature, is the main factor. Other effects, suchmore »« less
