## Element calculations

### Element power

* This is determined by the power outlet, i.e `230Vac@16A` -> **3680W**

* Some [resources](https://knifedogs.com/threads/heat-treat-oven-how-to-design-and-calculate-the-heating-elements.21072/) indicate 0.6 - 1.3 W/cm2 of wall -> `Aw = (30.4 * 30.4 * 2) + (30.4 * 34.2 * 4) = 6,007.04 cm2` therefore Element should be between *3604W* and *7800W*.

* [KMT-614](https://skutt.com/products-page/ceramic-kilns/kmt-614/) and [Ecotop 20](https://www.rohde.eu/en/arts-and-crafts/products/toploaders/ecotop-series/ecotop-20) are both ~20L with 2300W element and rated to [Cone 6](https://www.ortonceramic.com/files/2676/File/orton-cone-chart-2016.pdf), aka ~1260°C

### Element size

Using Kanthal D - Other variants were hard to find, Kanthal D can be bought at [eveks.se](https://eveks.se/kategorier/461-kanthal-tr%C3%A5d-01-5mm-v%C3%A4rmekabel-14765-kanthal-d-motst%C3%A5ndstr%C3%A5d-1-100-meter-4066435006815.html)

* 1.6mm -> R = 0.67 Ohms/m
* L = ( 3680 / 16^2 ) / 0.67 = **~21.5m**

### Surface Load

* Accordingly to Kanthal [datasheet](./extras/Kanthal%20handbook.pdf), kiln application should have a Surface Load between 3-9 W/cm2:

`3680 / (2pi x 0.08 x 2150) = **3.4**W/cm2`

* [furnace handbook](./extras/file1359965681_U3423.pdf) page 7 indicates max 2.4W/cm2 @ 1100°C

### Coil Diameter

* In order to avoid deformation on horizontal coils, the coild diameter should stay below 10mm accordingly to:

* Therefore let's use a **M8** rod to coil the wire.

### Coil Length

* The internal element perimeter is ~1216mm, if 3x turns are planned, we end up with a **3648mm** coil;

### Coil Pitch

*Coil pitch is normally 2-4 times the wire diameter* [page_79](./extras/Kanthal20handbook.pdf) -> aka 2-4mm

`s = (11.2 - 8) x pi / sqrt((21500 / 3648) ^ 2 - 1) = ~**2mm**`

## Bricks

The kils was build with [JM23](https://www.morganthermalceramics.com/media/4120/ifb-insulation-range-1100-1315-english.pdf) bricks
