SIMULATION ANALYSIS OF PREHEATER CHARGE TO THE ROTARY FURNACE
Mathematical modeling of heat aggregates is one of the fundamental methods of the mathematical modelling research. A mathematical model based on the method of elementary balances was created for the thermal treatment of granular and lumpy materials. The adaptation of the selected aggregate model is based on prior knowledge and experiments. The paper presents an adaptation of the mathematical model for the magnesite processing rotary furnace using the mode of caustic and clinker production. A simulation of the charge preheater impact based on the thin layer principle is implemented into the model. The main advantages of using this type of preheater of rotary furnace are smaller dimensions for a large exchange surface and low pressure losses

The calibration process and setting of image brightness to achieve optimum strain measurement accuracy using stereo-camera digital image correlation
Combining the drilling method with the digital image correlation (DIC) method is becoming
more common to speed up the measurement and evaluate the strains relieved at several locations.
However, to obtain the most accurate results, it is necessary to be aware of the influence of possible
aspects that could adversely affect the results of the strain/stress analysis carried out using DIC. The
paper describes several analyses to assess the influence of the 3D DIC system’s calibration procedure
for strain/stress analysis of the specimen with a hole loaded with four different levels of tensile force.
In addition, the paper also deals with the analysis of the influence of the image brightness, which was
modified by changing the exposure time of the cameras. Based on the results of strain/stress analyses
performed on small areas (approx. 25 × 25 mm) of a specimen with a hole by a stereo-camera DIC
system, it can be concluded that both analysed factors can negatively influence the results. The most
accurate results are ensured using the calibration target of very high manufacturing precision sized
similarly to the field of view observed in correlation mode. The optimal image brightness is adjusted
when the mean grey value of the image is from the range of 56 up to 171 with as evenly distributed
image point intensities as possible.Web of Science1317art. no. 951
