Fired Heaters, Process Furnaces, and Reformer Radiant Boxes: API 560, Radiant Heat Flux, Burner Management, Creep-Rupture Life, and Tube Coking
In Episode three hundred seventy-nine, when we optimized heat integration across a chemical plant, we saw that above the pinch temperature, every heat-recovery exchanger has already done all it can—and the remaining high-temperature heat must be supplied by an external hot utility. When a refinery crude distillation unit needs to heat fifty thousand tonnes per day of crude oil to three hundred seventy degrees Celsius, or a catalytic reformer needs to heat naphtha and hydrogen to five hundred thirty degrees Celsius, or an ethylene steam cracker needs to crack ethane at eight hundredeight…
