Secondary Air Flow Measurement
(SAFM)
Accurate and Repeatable Measurement of Burner Air Flow Rate and Swirl Velocity |
||
| Balancing air flow
characteristics to individual burners can be a tedious task. But the
rewards in combustion efficiency improvement can be tremendous. Air
Flow Sciences Corporation's specialized Secondary Air Flow Measurement
(SAFM) System can provide you with the results you need. |
