Abstract

The growth of energy requirements, pollutant emissions and fossil fuel dependency at the global level require strategies to achieve higher efficiency and improvements in the energy transformation process. The brick burning process at Hoffman kiln was evaluated through CFD simulation, flow and thermal profiles were analyzed. Additionally, to the thermal phenomena inside the furnace, the results allowed to identify some topics that require a more profound study to improve the brick burning process from an energetic point of view and, therefore, higher efficiency.
