are most economically desirable by any comparison W h e n e v e r all the specifications and all the operating requirements are applied to direct-fired furnace design, y o u can be sure P E T R O C H E M - I S O F L O W F U R N A C E S will be f o u n d most economically desirable, by any comparison. I n making comparisons it is essential to take these factors into consideration:
1—Average radiant transfer rate. 2—Maximum deviation f r o m average radiant transfer rate. 3—Average and m a x i m u m transfer rate in convection section. 4—Maximum tube wall temperature, radiant or convection. 5—Maximum efficiency with specified excess air. 6—Controlled thermal recirculation of flue gases t o provide even heat distribution throughout full length of each tube and equalized heat distribution around each tube. 7—Overload and corresponding transfer load. 8—Design t o provide: structural column supports—LaddersPlatforms—Tube Removal facilities, etc. 9—Degree of assembly; of t h e furnace structure and of t h e heating surface. When you specify PETROCHEM-ISO FLOW FURNACES . . . you'll be in good company. More than 1500 are now in ser vice, performing to the complete satisfac tion of their operators and usually well beyond their rated capacities.
