Masuuni


Definition from Wikipedia:
Reaktiokierron alussa masuuniin lietsotaan kompressorilla alapäästä esikuumennettua ilmaa ja Cowper-uunista saatua kaasua (tästä englanninkielinen nimi blast furnace, lietsouuni). Kuumuus sytyttää koksin, koksi alkaa palaa ja kehittää hiilidioksidia.

Example sentence(s):
  • Blast Furnace, eli masuuni on tavallista ahjoa kehittyneempi malmien sulatuspaikka, koska se ottaa osan lämmöstä ilmasta, jolloin tarvitaan vain puolet normaalista hiilimäärästä. - RUNEWIKI  
  • Projektin tavoite on masuunin pesän ja hormitason toiminnan hallinta ja pesän keston pidentäminen. - Oulun yliopisto  
  • Fiskarsin masuunin pienoismalli on rakennettu mittakaavassa 1:20 ja materiaaleina on käytetty pääosin samoja materiaaleja joista alkuperäinenkin masuuni 1700-luvulla rakennettiin. - Fiskars Ruukki
