Abstract

Previous scientific research has not focused on downdraught beehive kilns, which are the most used in the Colombian brick (ceramic) industry. Hence, in the present paper, an analytical mathematical model is developed in order to simulate the exhaust gas behavior. To do so, gas combustion and heat and mass transfer to the products and the walls are modelled within the kiln. The obtained model is validated by experimental data. Finally, with the experimental data acquired in the discharge duct and chimney, a heat recovery system is proposed to make use of the residual energy.
