With issues such as the greenhouse effect, pollution emissions, and rising energy prices weighing heavily on people's minds, technology that can reduce pollution and lower costs is most welcome. High Temperature Air Combustion is one of the first books to provide a comprehensive and illustrated introduction on recent developments in heat recovery systems used to preheat combustion air to achieve energy savings and reduce pollution. The authors supply specific examples and case histories to help practicing engineers and students easily understand and apply the mentioned technology for their specific interests. Written for practitioners, this text helps the reader gain an understanding of the phenomenon and apply the technology. Provides the first comprehensive treatment of this breakthrough technology Focuses on the practical application of HiTAC principles to achieve greater energy efficiency and lower environmental pollution Presents both combustion and heat transfer simulation models for HiTAC Includes reference data on high performance industrial furnaces Describes HiTAC's potential applications in other fields
