What is Cupola Furnace: Principles and Applications about?
The cupola furnace is a cylindrical furnace used to melt iron and other metals through the combustion of coke fuel. It consists of a preheating zone, melting zone, and reducing zone. In the working principle, coke is ignited to generate heat and melt the metal charges introduced through the charging door. The hot gases produced reduce and melt the iron into cast iron. Cupola furnaces are used to produce cast iron, malleable iron, and copper alloys through an economical melting process.
