| Abstract: | Influence of the enhancement of physical recuperation on fuel consumption in heating furnaces has been analysed. The multiplier of fuel energy and fuel exergy economy has been defined. The effects of chemical recuperation, increasing the chemical energy and exergy of fuel have been determined. The independent preheating of combustion reactants has been investigated. The possible increase of the lean fuel content in the gaseous fuel mixture has been determined. Numerical examples are included. |
