Abstract
The main objective of this work was to evaluate the behavior of an oval heated closed enclosure, when variable radiant panels were introduced. The experimental investigation showed that their efficiency was depending on their position. An experimental investigation, as well as numerical simulation was carried out. Totally, 24 test runs were performed from which the maximal heating temperature was measured. The experimental findings were also compared to the simulation results and a reasonable agreement was observed. Finally, based on the results of this study, a correlation was developed to predict the inner configuration for heat transfer enhancement of an oval furnace.
