PRESS RELEASE
Morgan Advanced Materials (Morgan) announces the launch of Heat Flow, a completely enhanced online steady-state heat transfer calculator. The Heat Flow application allows users to simulate an unlimited number of heat transfer scenarios using Morgan's market leading insulation and refractory products, as well as other user-defined materials. Users can register to create and manage their own material databases and calculations, by visiting http://morganheatflow.com.
The Heat Flow application comes pre-loaded with nearly 400 products in ten categories offered by Morgan's Thermal Ceramics business, including Superwool® insulating fiber and Kaowool® fiber blankets, Pyro-Bloc® Modules, K® Insulating Fire Bricks, Kaocrete® and Kaolite® monolithics. Users will also have the ability to add other materials into a unique user-defined database to run calculations. The heat transfer calculations utilize the ASTM C680 formulas, with the latest 2010 revision, the international standard for estimating heat loss and surface temperatures, recognized by the mechanical and thermal engineering communities. In planned developments, the company will extend the service to other geographic regions over the coming months.
The new web-based Heat Flow application is compatible with most computer operating systems and web browsers. The material database will be regularly updated so users will always have immediate access to the latest information available.
The program allows users to save favorites and view or edit previous calculations; individual calculations can also be downloaded in PDF format. Mobile applications for smart phones and tablets are in development and are scheduled for launch in the near future.

Featured Product

Model TR1 Tru-Trac
The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
