Abstract
The invention relates to a process and a device for manufacturing molten glass comprising from upstream to downstream a furnace for melting and fining glass equipped with cross-fired overhead burners, then a conditioning basin supplied with glass by the furnace, the dimensions of this manufacturing device being such that K is higher than 3.5, the factor K being determined from the dimensions of the device. The invention makes it possible to dimension a device for melting glass so that it is smaller and consumes less energy while producing high quality glass.
