Rotary Kilns—rotating business drying ovens—are used for a wide selection of functions together with processing uncooked minerals and feedstocks in addition to heat-treating detrimental wastes. they're fairly severe within the manufacture of Portland cement. Their layout and operation is necessary to their effective utilization, which if performed incorrectly may end up in improperly taken care of fabrics and over the top, excessive gas expenditures.

16 Profile showing the method of calculating various roughness parameters such as Rp, Rv, and Rt [3] moment m3 in normalized form gives the skewness. The fourth moment m4 in normalized form gives the kurtosis. It is expressed as follows: • • • • First moment (m1) ¼ Ra Second moment (m2) ¼ Rq Third moment (m3) ¼ Rsk Fourth moment (m4) ¼ Rku Maximum height of peaks (Rp): Rp is used to measure the maximum height of the profile above the mean line. It is the height difference between the mean line and the highest point over the evaluation length (see Fig.
