Abstract
The goal of the study is to establish the influence of temporal wearing of refractory lining on energy losses of the furnaces by conducting heat through the furnaces walls. Object of the study were sectional furnaces, type SELAS, situated in the seam tubes production line in Željezara Sisak, Croatia. In order to reduce production costs, it was attempted to define the timely replacement of refractory lining by the criteria of comparing the costs resulted by heat loss through the furnace lining with the costs of refractory lining replacement. Data for the calculation of heat losses was obtained by use of the infrared camera.
