Application of SketchUp in Coke Oven Three-Dimensional Digital Modeling
Coke oven, which is a large industrial furnace, is complex in
structure. A two-dimensional structure diagram can hardly help
one observe the inner structure of a coke oven or master its
working principle comprehensively. In order to solve this
problem, a complete 3D digital model of a coke oven is
generated by assembling the three-dimensional models of coke
oven components created with SketchUp. It enables users to
section the various components of the cove oven. The outer
appearance and inner structure of the oven components also can
be displayed visually from several different orientations.
Moreover, it is convenient to storage and carry, operation easily
and fast. It can be displayed on an ordinary computer and
occupies no space at the laboratory. Meanwhile, a large sum of
money that used for purchasing a physical coke oven model can
be saved.
