Experiments in a pilot-scale impulse unit - heat transfer and water removal rates
This is the first paper out of two dealing with heat transfer, water removal and energy efficiencies in an impulse unit in the pilot-scale research paper machine EuroFEX, located at the Swedish Pulp and Paper Research Institute (STFI) in Stockholm, Sweden. The paper produced was made of kraft pulp and with basis weights of 60-120 g/m(2). The roll surface temperature ranged from ambient temperature
