ASME ( American Society of Mechanical Engineers )
Description: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is a professional association that, in its own words, "promotes the art, science, and practice of multidisciplinary engineering and allied sciences around the globe" via "continuing education, training and professional development, codes and standards, research, conferences and publications, government relations, and other forms of outreach." ASME is thus an engineering society, a standards organization, a research and development organization, a lobbying organization, a provider of training and education, and a nonprofit organization. Founded as an engineering society focused on mechanical engineering in North America, ASME is today multidisciplinary and global.

The Use of Visible Light Models for the Study of Radiant Heat Transfer in Furnaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Apparatus was developed for the study of radiant heat transfer in furnaces by means of models using visible light. Flame radiation was simulated by an array of miniature lamps. Strips coated ...
Discussion: “The Influence of Coal Rank on the Burning Times of Single Captive Particles” (Essenhigh, R. H., 1963, ASME J. Eng. Power, 85, pp. 183–188)

Design and Construction of a Thermal Radiation Probe
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A thermal radiation probe was constructed and tested in pulverized-coal-fired furnaces. A rotatable sensing head on the side of a water-cooled probe permitted measurement of radiant flux within ...
A Laboratory Study of High-Temperature Corrosion on Fireside Surfaces of Coal-Fired Steam Generators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Three experimental approaches gave significant information on high-temperature fireside corrosion: 1 Sodium and potassium chlorides, injected through a gas flame, were deposited as such and then ...
A Study of Sulfur Reactions in Furnace Deposits
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A study was made of absorption of sulfur from synthetic flue gas by coal ash. When fly ash was placed in a temperature gradient like that in a deposit on a boiler tube, maximum absorption ...
Discussion: “Further Development of the Burning Profile” (Wagoner, C. L., and Winegartner, C. E., 1973, ASME J. Eng. Power, 95, pp. 119–123)
