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.}, number={2}, journal={International Journal of Online and Biomedical Engineering (iJOE)}, author={Ouyang, Shuguang and Xu, Jie and Su, Xiaoli and Wang, Zikan}, year={2013}, month={Apr.}, pages={pp. 13–16} }
