Abstract
A review of works on rotary furnace was handled and this provokes ingenuity in this paper to consider all
parameters necessary to design and developed an energy efficient rotary furnace. High insulation bricks ,low speed of
rotation, fuel type and its calorific value, flame stability and flame length, burner type , geometry of the rotary drum ,
recuperation and absence of pulsating flow nature from blower due to power fluctuation are all considered for the design
of an energy efficient rotary furnace.
