Finite Element Analysis and Computer Simulation of Temperature Field in Different Heat Resource Silicon Carbide Furnace

The heat-transfer process and temperature distribution of a single heat resource furnace (Acheson furnace) and a multi-heat resource furnace were studied by using the finite element method and ANSYS numerical simulation software. The simulated figures of heat transfer and temperature distribution were achieved. The regulations of heat transfer and temperature distribution in the two furnaces were contrasted and analysed and these influences on SiC yield rate and energy wear were analysed. The simulation and industrial application results show that the multi-heat resource furnace has many advantages such as saving energy, heightening quality, increasing yield and it is more safety than the single heat resource furnace. The multi-heat resource furnace is also easy to be magnified.
