Calculate Heat Loss

Click on calc Calculated heat loss through wall is 6304 MBU/hr Notice that hotside temperature for B&W delta exceeds max workable temperature (1900 degF)

More Bricks
This is great but what if my bricks are not shown in the database ?
Then you have to add your bricks to the database. Ill show you how.

Adding Bricks
From Menu Select Edit Bricks Click on Name Type in your new Name

Adding New Bricks

Select type of brick Enter conductivity for at least one temperature Enter max working temperature

Add New Bricks

Click on add

Add new bricks

and there it is !
Thats all there is to it !

Sting Outs

Sting Outs Are Heat Losses Through Openings in the Wall

Sting Outs
Select sting outs from menu Enter opening size Enter hotside and coldside temperatures Click on calc
