Optimization of Tunnel Kilns

Optimization of brick burning in tunnel kilns by means of organizing the zones of heat carrier recirculation with the use of flame blower of a new type is proposed. Overheating of the ventilator shaft and motor is provided by the simple and reliable clutch. The design of clutch has spokes made in the form of blades which rotate in surrounding air and are cooled by it. Introduction of this method can increase the productivity of the kiln by up to 10% or improve the quality of ready-made products.
