Typically 1000 cubic feet per minute (per linear running foot of the perimeter at the glass line) of air at a static pressure of 4 inches of water column if the requirement is only for the sidewalls. so for a 6 meter by 14 meter furnace the perimeter would be slightly less than 40 meters (131 feet) so the installed cooling would be 131000 CFM (2 blowers of 65000 CFM)

If the crown too is to be cooled a safer calculation would be 1950 cubic feet per minute. It is a trade off. More cooling will give a better life but a lower energy efficiency.

Are refrigerant temperatures and pressures in the cooling mode of a heat pump about the same in both the suction side and the discharge side of the system?

Yes refrigerant temperatures and pressures in the cooling mode of a heat pump is the same. They are both in the suction side and the discharge side of the system.


Can a window glass be installed backwards?

If the glass has a coating or film, that coating may be intended to be on one side or the other, so, yes, it WOULD be possible to install the glass improperly.


What controls the heat pump to determine whether it in the heating cycle or cooling cycle?

The refrigerant is pumped round the system, one way or the other. The warm side is the high-pressure side on one side of the nozzle.

What is twin hearth furnace?

Russian Designed, Twin Hearth Furnaces are the modernized version of the Older Open Hearth Furnaces which now comprise two adjoining furnaces side by side to alternately use up the sensible heat of the gases generated due to the steel making process being carried out in one furnace to heat up the scrap and other materials in the other furnace till the first one is tapped and then the entire process is repeated for the next heat that is to be carried out in the first furnace utilizing the sensible heat of the second furnace. This cycle is alternated and the result is to cut on time of production and minimizing heating up costs. In India these types of furnaces are still being used at State Owned Steel Authority Of India Limited's Bhilai Steel Plant and IISCO Steel Plant. They are followed by Ingot casting route and the Blooming and Billet milling plant.

What would cause the side window to shatter in a dodge caravan?

The glass used building vehicles to US specifications must be (by law) tempered. A process that hardens the glass. Should the glass be hit by some object, a person's head or another hard object with enough force the glass shatters into small pieces or chunks of small pieces that easily separate along the cracks in the chucks. This is so there are no shards or long pieces of broken glass that could cut or penetrate a person nearby or during an accident. Glass is tempered by sudden but controlled cooling. The glass is formed; it's edges dressed or smoothed out rolled out of the furnace, cooled using usually 1 of three techniques. The glass does not flex very much; it will flex to a point and then shatter just like it was hit with a hard object. I suspect your side glass in your dodge was impacted on it's edge, flexed or stressed to a point to far from it's original shape.


How does the thermostat in your house operate?

Traditional thermostats use a sealed glass tube with a bubble of mercury as the low-voltage switch to activate the furnace relay switch. Two wires sealed into the glass are covered or uncoverd by the mercury as it sloshes from side to side in the tube. The tube is moved by a wound bi-metallic strip that coils or uncoils as the temperature changes.

Are crystallization and cooling the same thing?

Crystalization is more of a side effect of cooling. So no.


How Is Glass Made what are the steps?

Commercially produced glass can be classified as soda-lime, lead, fused silica, borosilicate, or 96 percent silica. Soda-lime glass consists of sand, limestone, soda ash, and cullet (broken glass). The manufacture of such glass is in four phases: (1) preparation of raw material (2) melting in a furnace, (3) forming and (4) finishing. The procedures for manufacturing glass are the same for all products except forming and finishing. Container glass and pressed and blown glass, 51 and 25 percent respectively of total soda-lime glass production, use pressing, blowing or pressing and blowing to form the desired product. Flat glass, which is the remainder, is formed by float, drawing, or rolling processes. As the sand, limestone, and soda ash raw materials are received, they are crushed and stored in separate elevated bins. These materials are then transferred through a gravity feed system to a weigher and mixer, where the material is mixed with cullet to ensure homogeneous melting. The mixture is conveyed to a batch storage bin where it is held until dropped into the feeder to the melting furnace. All equipment used in handling and preparing the raw material is housed separately from the furnace and is usually referred to as the batch plant. A furnace may have either side or end ports that connect brick checkers to the inside of the melter. As material enters the melting furnace through the feeder, it floats on the top of the molten glass already in the furnace. As it melts, it passes to the front of the melter and eventually flows through a throat leading to the refiner. In the refiner, the molten glass is heat conditioned for delivery to the forming process. After refining, the molten glass leaves the furnace through forehearths (except in the float process, with molten glass moving directly to the tin bath) and goes to be shaped by pressing, blowing, pressing and blowing, drawing, rolling, or floating to produce the desired product. Pressing and blowing are performed mechanically, using blank molds and glass cut into sections (gobs) by a set of shears. In the drawing process, molten glass is drawn upward in a sheet through rollers, with thickness of the sheet determined by the speed of the draw and the configuration of the draw bar. The rolling process is similar to the drawing process except that the glass is drawn horizontally on plain or patterned rollers and, for plate glass, requires grinding and polishing. The end product undergoes finishing (decorating or coating) and annealing (removing unwanted stress areas in the glass) as required, and is then inspected and prepared for shipment to market.


What is happening if while running your central air conditioner there is water or moisture running down the side of the furnace and out the bottom on the floor It runs down side wall of furnace?

check to see if drain to unit outside in draining may be clogged


Why cant you find your filter on your gas furnace?

Usually the filter is right on the inside of where the return air duct meets with the furnace. You usually have to take off the side or front panels of the furnace to gain access to where the filter is. Usually these involve sliding them up and out but it can vary. Check an online owners manual for the make and model of your furnace. Usually there will be a plate of information somewhere on the casing of the furnace with this information.


Can a down draft furnace be mounted on its side or back?

I'm assuming that by "down draft furnace" you mean a counterflow or downflow furnace. This furnace takes its "cold air return" at the top, and blows the warm air out the bottom (typically, into ductwork that runs under the floor).Older downflow furnaces were dedicated to that configuration, and could not be mounted in other positions.Nowadays, most furnace manufacturers make "multi-poise" furnaces. They can be mounted in downflow, upflow, or side-flow positions, when they are installed according to the manufacturer's certified instructions.The HVAC Veteran
