Abstract
A simple model melting space of 1 m³ has been proposed to demonstrate the influence of internal melting factors such as temperature, pressure, glass composition, size distribution in batch and glass flow distribution, on the specific energy consumption of the glass melting process. The laboratory data have been applied to evaluate the constants in proposed relations expressing this influence. The numerical results are graphically presented and show the main tendencies in the energy consumption development; the upper limits of the high-temperature application are obvious as well as the promising role of glass stirring, glass flow distribution and the physical way of refining.
