Abstract

An alternative approach to investigate the fluid dynamics and thermal aspects of the drying behavior of refractory castables was proposed. As such, the method combines innovative permeametry and thermal analysis to provide fast, helpful information on the causes of several physical and chemical phenomena that occur during castable drying. The results obtained may help understand and prevent the occurrence of explosive spalling, thus optimizing industrial heating schedules.
