Energy balance application for Erdemir Coke Plant with thermal camera measurements

In this study, an energy balance application has been done for the coke plant of Erdemir. An energy input and output model has been established in order to determine the lost energy in the process. According to the study, the sensible heat of the red-hot coke accounts for approximately 59.60% of the total heat output from the coke oven, a considerably large heat quantity. On the other hand, heat losses in the form of radiation were determined with the use of thermal camera measurements whereby the results are shown in Sankey diagrams along with other related data relevant to the Erdemir Coke Plant.
