Glass Melting Furnace includes a melting chamber in which solid batch materials are heated to produce molten glass. The arch of this melting chamber is known as crown. To measure and control the temperature of furnace crown is important, because with the correct temperatures one can improve the service life of crown, as the overheating of the crown may cause of early erosion of crown refractory and on the other side if the temperatures are low, it can affect the melting efficiency and will increase the fuel consumption. The highest temperature in melting furnace is at crown.
