The Effect of Saturated Steam Vapor Temperature on Heat Consumption in the Process of Color Modification of Acacia Wood

摘要

This paper presents the heat consumption on the process of colour modification of acacia timber with measures 30 x 55 x 500 mm in pressure autoclaves AZ 240 using saturated water steam with temperatures from t=110 to 140 °C following the regimes of colour homogenisation of I., II. and III. degree. The dependance of the heat consumption normative Q_(TFS) on the temparature of saturated water steam in the process of colour homogenisation of acacia timber following these regimes describes the equation: Q_(TFS)= 1.1122t-13.903 kWh.m~(-3).
