From Orrick & Hudson equation:

𝑄 𝑄
1 (𝐴⁄𝐹 ) ∗ √ 𝑆 4200 + [ (𝐴⁄𝐹 ) ∗ √ 𝑆 ]
=1+ =
𝜇 4200 4200

4200
𝜇= (𝟏)
𝑄
4200 + [ (𝐴⁄𝐹 ) ∗ √ 𝑆 ]

Q: Net heat transfer rate (Kcal/hr).


A/F: Air to Fuel ratio.
S: Surface Area (𝑚2 ) = 𝜋 ∗ 𝐷 ∗ 𝐿
𝝁: Absorbed heat by furnace wall ratio.

From previous calculations:


𝑄𝑡𝑜𝑡 = 941.1765 KWatt = 809459.458 Kcal/hr
𝐴
= 17.4255
𝐹

Assuming L = 3*D (Furnace length equals three times the diameter)


S = 𝜋 ∗ 𝐷 ∗ 𝐿 = 3𝜋𝐷 2
𝜋 3𝜋 3
Furnace volume = 𝑉𝑓𝑢𝑟𝑛𝑎𝑐𝑒 = 𝐷 2 𝐿 = 𝐷
4 4
From (1):

𝜇= = (𝟐)
809459.458 5106.78102
4200 + [ 17.4255 ∗ √ ] 4200 +
3𝜋𝐷 2 𝐷

Assuming furnace HRR = 600 KWatt/𝑚3

𝑄𝑓𝑢𝑟𝑛𝑎𝑐𝑒 = 𝐻𝑅𝑅 ∗ 𝑉𝑓𝑢𝑟𝑛𝑎𝑐𝑒 = 450𝜋𝐷 3


𝑄𝑓𝑢𝑟𝑛𝑎𝑐𝑒 450𝜋𝐷 3
𝜇= = = 1.502 ∗ 𝐷 3 (𝟑)
𝑄𝑡𝑜𝑡 941.1765

From (2) & (3):


4200
1.502 ∗ 𝐷 3 = (𝟒)
5106.78102
4200 + 𝐷
By solving equation (4):

𝑫 = 𝟎. 𝟔𝟎𝟒 𝒎
𝑳 = 𝟏. 𝟖𝟏𝟒𝟏 𝒎
𝝁 = 𝟑𝟑. 𝟏%
