Monitoring and Optimum Alignment of Kiln Axis

The rotating center of kiln cross-section can be measured exactly by displacement measurement along zero-deformation direction of shell cross-section, whose measuring principle is studied. In order to distribute kiln loads evenly and minimize axis deflections, the fuzzy optimization model of kiln axis alignment is set up. The results show that fuzzy optimum alignment of kiln axis can improve kiln performance greatly by making kiln axis as straight as possible and distributing kiln loads equally.
