去年,美国锻造工业学会在芝加哥召开了热工设备和节能专题座谈会。美国《工业热工》杂志连载了这个座谈会的一些材料。这些材料的特点是资料具体,方法易行,虽然所述的节能方法已为国内热工工作者所熟知,但也有不少新的改进和启发。我们将座谈会的资料(并参照其它资料)加以汇集和整理,一方面是为了向大家介绍美国节能的现状和水平,另一方面是为了再次强调这些节能措施、方法,以引起各方面的重视。 Last year, the American Forge Industry Society held a symposium on thermal equipment and energy saving in Chicago. The United States “Industrial Thermal” magazine serialized some materials of this forum. These materials are characterized by specific data and easy-to-use methods. Although the energy-saving methods described are familiar to domestic thermal workers, there are many new improvements and enlightenments. On the one hand, we will introduce the current situation and level of energy conservation in the United States on the one hand and stress the importance of these energy-saving measures and methods on the other hand. .
