3 Test Apparatus
The test apparatus of this method mainly include the combustion vertical furnace and test equipments.
3.1 Combustion vertical furnace
The combustion vertical furnace mainly comprises the combustion chamber, burner, test-piece support, air steady-state flow layer, gas flue and other parts. The overall dimension is 1020mm×1020mm×3930mm (see Figure 1 and Figure 2).
3.1.1 Combustion chamber
The combustion chamber consists of the furnace wall and furnace door, and the internal spatial dimension is 800mm×800mm×2000mm. The furnace wall is a thermal insulation sandwich structure and the structure form is detailed in Figure 2.
The furnace doors are divided into the upper door and lower door, which are connected with hinge and furnace body respectively, and the structure is similar to that of the furnace wall. The two doors are closed with the furnace body by means of hand wheels and fixed screw rods.
There are observation windows set in the upper furnace door and the back wall of the combustion chamber.
