What is difference between Cupola furnace and blast furnace?
In essence nothing, a Cupola furnace is a type of blast furnace in that it is charged at the top and tapped at the bottom and air is blasted into the furnace via a wind belt and tuyres. A blast furnace in a steel works is a huge structure operated for long periods of time, it is charged with iron ore, coke and limestone and reduces the iron ore into pure iron. A Cupola furnace, as used in the foundry re melts pig iron, from the blast furnace, along with foundry scrap, steel scrap and scrap iron engine blocks and produced iron alloys of various specifications. A Cupola furnace is usually operated on a daily basis but some types can be continuously operated for several weeks
What construction and working of cupola furnace?
A cupola furnace is a tall, vertical furnace used to melt iron and other metals. It works by charging alternate layers of metal and coke (carbon fuel) through a charging door at the top of the furnace. The coke is ignited, creating intense heat that melts the metal charge, which is tapped periodically from the base of the furnace.
What is cupola furnace?
In steelmaking, it is a vertical cylindrical furnace used for melting iron either for casting or for charging in other furnaces. René-Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur built the first cupola furnace on record, in France, about 1720. Cupola melting is still recognized as the most economical melting process; most gray iron is melted by this method. Source: Britannica Online Encyclopedia
