nagrzewanie kratownicy regeneratora
Explanation:
A regenerator consists of a regenerator chamber in which a
checkerwork (or just checkers) of refractory bricks has been
stacked.

In one cycle the checker is heated up by flue gases, subsequently in
the following stage (20-30 minutes) the heat is transferred to
combustion air
http://www.lehigh.edu/imi/teched/GlassProcess/Lectures/Lectu...

- Regenerator (checker) burning every 6 months
The regenerator’s key function is to capture heat from
the exhaust stream and use it to preheat combustion air
before it is used in the process. It achieves this
through a honeycomb of refractory bricks with a large
amount of surface area called checkers. Over the course
of months, material from the exhaust stream condenses and
solidifies on the bricks, which cause the flues to choke
off and become inefficient at transferring heat. This
causes the checker pack to cool down, which limits the
effectiveness of the 3R process and causes opacity to
increase until the pack heats back up.
Burning the checkers will consist of reheating the built
up materials to the point that they liquefy and run out of
the flue. This will allow the checker pack flues to open
back up and become more efficient in transferring and
retaining heat. This process takes 1 week to complete.

- Regenerator bottom clean out every 6 months
During the process of checker burning, a large amount of
debris collects in the base of the generators and needs to
be cleaned out. There is also an accumulation of batch
particulate from furnace carryover that collects in the
base of the regenerators and needs to be cleaned out.
This process can take up to two weeks depending on the
amount of buildup.
