Research on Key Energy-saving Techniques for A Novel Full Air Cooling UV-curing Oven via CFD Approach

摘要

The optimum design of a novel full air cooling UV-curing oven is proposed, to overcome the disadvantage of traditional drying ovens on the high energy consumption and inefficiency, at al. The optimum curing oven is simulated and analyzed by Fluent applied to the CFD technology. Comparison between the simulation and real data indicates that the CFD model has an accurate prediction. The optimum wind velocity of the inlet is 1 m/s. A general optimum design method of the curing oven is put forward as well. The specific energy analysis shows that, energy consumption of the glazing machine with the optimum curing oven have decreased by approximately 14% compared to the conventional ones.
