Abstract: A method for controlled operation of a heated industrial furnace having a furnace chamber is provided. Fuel is conducted into the furnace chamber virtually without combustion air and a gaseous oxygen carrier is also conducted. The supply of fuel and the gaseous oxygen carrier is controlled by a control loop. A first adjustable manipulated variable in the form of a flow of fuel and/or a second adjustable manipulated variable in the form of a flow of the gaseous oxygen carrier is set by a final controlling element. In the control loop, an energy requirement is determined and fed to a quantitative control and to a quantitative fuel control for the fuel. The flow of the gaseous oxygen carrier is determined as a process value of a flow of the gaseous oxygen carrier and the flow of fuel is determined as a process value of a volumetric flow of fuel.

Abstract: A method for controlling a process of cooling a number of glass molds with a cooling medium in a process of producing glass bodies, wherein a production section of the section machine is respectively assigned at least one of the glass molds, and, for cooling the number of glass molds, the cooling medium is supplied on a jointly shared basis, wherein the supplying of the shared cooling medium for the number of glass molds is jointly controlled and the shared cooling medium is assigned a number of absolute cooling medium parameters and the absolute cooling medium parameters are determined as cooling medium parameters that are shared by the number of glass molds.
