Recuperative burner

gasindirect firedfurnace

Product overview
Ceramic recuperative burners act as an integrated heat exchanger: their enlarged surface preheats combustion air using exhaust gases, reducing exhaust losses and improving process efficiency. Schunk Ceramics, a technology leader in full-ceramic systems, offers solutions in conventionally formed RBSiC and the market-leading 3D-printed grade IntrinSiC®, enabling complex internal geometries (e.g. internal fins) previously unachievable with conventional forming methods and eliminating pattern and mould costs.

Benefits

• Available variants: RBSiC (CarSIK-G, IntrinSiC®)
• Excellent oxidation and corrosion resistance
• Very good resistance to thermal shock
• High design flexibility allowing complex internal features with 3D-printed IntrinSiC®

Characteristics / Specifications

• Material: RBSiC (reaction-bonded silicon carbide)
• Available versions: conventionally formed RBSiC parts and 3D-printed IntrinSiC® parts
• Function: recuperative heat recovery via enlarged surface (integrated heat exchanger)
• Properties: high oxidation and corrosion resistance, strong thermal shock resistance
• Design & manufacturing: enables complex internal geometries (e.g. inner fins) via 3D printing; eliminates pattern and mould costs for 3D-printed variant
• Typical applications: full-ceramic systems and indirect heating of heat-treatment furnaces
