Development of Multi-Functional Shipboard Incinerator.

Abstract

This report covers the second phase in the design and development program of a new multi-functional incinerator (MFI System). The incinerator is designed to fit into a compartment 12 ft x 12 ft x 8 ft. The system consists of seven modules which may be arranged to suit the compartment lay-out. The total system weight is 1400 lb. New features of the Phase II incinerator include the following: flat blade centrifugal induced draft fan in place of duct-type axial flow, heavy castable refractory throughout, larger firebox volume, heavier feeder construction, small diameter multi-tubular fly ash collector, semi-automatic feeder control, and diagnostic monitoring circuit on burner control. The MFI System was fabricated, assembled and tested. The report describes problems encountered, corrective action taken and recommendations for modifications on subsequent units. (Author)
