Being a literature study on the raceway phenomena, this report summarizes some research achievements which have been published. First, the dynamic condition forming raceway and the dynamics of raceway are presented, when the blast air velocity exceeds the terminal velocity of coke particle, a raceway zone will be formed in front of the tuyere. After the blast air enters the raceway, its dynamics parameters (i.e., velocity, pressure, temperature, density) change greatly along the central line of tuyere. Then, the factors influencing the formation of raceway are described, it shows that the shape and size of raceway were dependent on the blast air conditions and structure of coke burden. The dynamics characteristics of gas under injection of auxilary fuel are also described. Based on observation and measurement results on the raceway, dynamic phenomena of coke in raceway, conditions near raceway and chemical reactions taking place in raceway are presented. The last, two kinds of mathematical models simulating the raceway phenomena are introduced, one type is based on radiation strength, the other is based on chemical reaction kinetics and fluid flow.

In blast furnaces, such regions formed by the blast of hot air at velocities of 100-300 m/s are called raceway. Coke and auxiliary fuel injected into blast furnace through tuyere pyrolysis, bum and form gases in the raceway. The ascending gases transfer heat to the the descending burden, drops of molten iron and slag, and provide reducing agent for the reduction of iron oxides. Therefore, the formation of raceway in front of the tuyere will greatly affect the distribution of reducing gases, evenly descent of burden and the transfer processes of heat and mass. It is very important for blast furnace operators to have the knowledge about the phenomena in the raceway. In particularly, at present, the analysis of the combustion of supplementary fuels injected into blast furnaces requires a more detailed study of the flow in the raceway as well as the distribution of the gas flow through the raceway boundary as these determine the time available for combustion. On the above points, the raceway has long been investigated by many research works. The studies on mechanism of the raceway formation, size and shape of the raceway have been carried out by use of cold and hot models and experimental and commercial blast furnaces. With the aid of high-speed camera and endoscope, the dynamic behavior of coke in the raceway have been studied, for example, it investigated the movement of coke, size distribution and quantity of coke particle into the raceway, speed of coke and the depth of raceway. The probes having a gas sampling hole have been used to measure the composition distribution of gases, according to the measuring results, the combustion behavior and chemical reactions taking place in the raceway have also been studied. Through dissecting the quenched blast furnace, the condition near the raceway have been analysed. All these research were based on observation and measurement. Since 1950, with the development of computational technology, mathematical model method has been widely used to investigate the raceway phenomena and many mathematical models on raceway phenomena have been published. This report summarizes briefly the studing achievements on raceway phenomena from the following parts: First, the dynamic condition forming raceway and raceway dynamics will be described. Secondly, the factors affecting the raceway dynamics and the condition near the raceway are represented. Last, two kinds of mathematical models simulating the raceway phenomena are summaried. 1. Dynamic Condition of Raceway Formation The raceway is a cavity in front of the tuyere, coke particles move in a form of recirculation in it, the dynamic condition for the formation of the raceway is that the velocity of blast air (ub) must exceed the terminal velocity of coke particle (ut). i.e: III Ub>Ut l The terminal velocity of coke particle can be calculated through the following force balance equation: III ndl n ■(Pc ~Pg)~ Q>t^<2 —p (1.1) cmax 2 where p is density, d is diameter of coke particle, Co is resistance coefficient. Subscripts: g stands for gas, c is coke. Co is based on the motion of coke particle, therefore, Co —f(Re). The terminal velocity of coke particle under different conditions has been calculated through equation(l.l). Fig. 1.1 shows that the maximum terminal velocity of coke particle does not exceed 36 m/s (ut < 36 m/s) under modem blast furnace operation. In fact, the hot blast enters the furnace through the tuyere at a velocity (tit,) of 200-300 m/s. i.e: /!/ Ub»Ut Therefore, the dynamic condition for the formation of the raceway cavity is fully attained. 0.02 0.04 0.06 0.08 de »® pg - density of fluid Fig. 1.1 Relationship between the terminal velocity ut and particle diameter dc /!/. 2 2. Dynamics of Raceway Formation The blast jet entering the raceway has the characteristics of a limited jet besides the common characterics of free jet, momentum decreases gradually and pressure increases in the direction of proceeding of blast jet. The change of pressure and the effects of resistance and inertia make the blast flow move entraining coke lumps in form of recirculation. Fig. 2.1 shows the distribution of static pressure at theboundary of raceway. Inside the raceway, due to the hurtle of blast with coke, an intensive turbulency is generated, a part of momentum of blast air is transfered to static pressure, thus the static pressure coefficent increases from 130 to 160 at the boundary of the raceway 111. P- static pressure, p- density of gas Fig. 2.1 Distribution of static pressure at the boundary of raceway /2/. Viewing the axis of tuyere as the circulating axis of raceway, 0 is the initial circulatlating angle. A relationship between distribution coefficent of static pressure and 9 can be seen from Fig. 2.2, a static pressure peak occurs near the position of 0=160 °C. At the same time, some relationships between the peak and depth of raceway exist, the velocity of gas decreases as the increase of depth of the raceway at the hurlting position of the blast, and, the peak decreases also. Considering the position of peak, the axis of the raceway is above the horizontal line of the raceway. Ill C,=(P-P0)/(x>o 2/2) Fig. 2.2 Distribution coefficent of static pressure venus angle Z2Z 3 According to momentum law, decrease of momentum per unit time should be equal to thesum of pressure and resistances.

  • Blast Furnace
    Blast furnace From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Blast furnace in Sestao, Spain. The actual furnace itself is inside the centre girderwork. A blast furnace is a type of metallurgical furnace used for smelting to produce metals, generally iron. In a blast furnace, fuel and ore are continuously supplied through the top of the furnace, while air (sometimes with oxygen enrichment) is blown into the bottom of the chamber, so that the chemical reactions take place throughout the furnace as the material moves downward. The end products are usually molten metal and slag phases tapped from the bottom, and flue gases exiting from the top of the furnace. Blast furnaces are to be contrasted with air furnaces (such as reverberatory furnaces), which were naturally aspirated, usually by the convection of hot gases in a chimney flue. According to this broad definition, bloomeries for iron, blowing houses for tin, and smelt mills for lead, would be classified as blast furnaces. However, the term has usually been limited to those used for smelting iron ore to produce pig iron, an intermediate material used in the production of commercial iron and steel.

ABSTRACT This project is designed to improve Electrical versus Thermal efficiency. Nowadays electrical heating system converts 65% of the electrical power into thermal power. We have introduced infrared penetration heating system to improve efficiency up to 95% thermal efficiency and 100% electrical efficiency. We are going to construct a furnace model to improve our system. A real fabrication model is to analyze IR heating system. The capacity of infrared lamps used inside the furnace will be about 500watts. IR lamps will be used to provide heat. From the furnace, the temperature is sensed by the thermocouple, which is based on the principle of Seeback effect. The function of a thermocouple is to convert heat energy to mill voltage and it is fed to a signal conditioner to improve the sensitivity and also to improve the non-linear Property of thermocouple. Temperature acquired from the thermocouple is indicated on the screen of the computer. The computer will also compare the temperature acquired with the set temperature and control action if any will be done by the solid-state relay that avoids instantaneous heating.

    Polish J. of Environ. Stud. Vol. 20, No. 1 (2011), 101-105 Original Research Selected Aspects of Metallurgical and Foundry Furnace Dust Utilization Jan Jezierski*, Krzysztof Janerka** Department of Foundry, Silesian University of Technology, Towarowa 7, 44-100 Gliwice, Poland Received: 26 March 2010 Accepted: 9 June 2010 Abstract One of the biggest problems in the metallurgical and foundry industries is the large quantity of dust gen- erated during production processes. The most important is furnace dust created when the molten metal is pre- pared and subsequently sucked out by the dust removal system. At the Department of Foundry, experiments using the pneumatic injection method were carried out to utilize these kinds of materials and some results were successfully introduced into industrial applications. The results of dust injection into cupola and metallurgical EAFs (for slag foaming) were presented in this paper. The ideas behind the industrial set-ups, the process para- meters, and the results obtained are described. The paper proves that pneumatic the injection technique could and should be continuously considered as an effective method for waste dust utilization.

The foundry industry uses different types of furnac- es, and metallurgical slags are products of the pyrometallurgical processes defecting in these furnaces. Furnace slag is a non-metallic by-product that consists primarily of silicates, alumina silicates, and calcium-alumina-silicates. As a by-prod- uct of the melting process, furnace slags vary considerably in form depending on the melted metal furnace types, and slag cooling method used. Most quantity of slags from the foundry processes are created in a cupola furnace that is used for cast iron production. An electric arc furnace is usually used for steel production, but it can be used for cast iron production as well. Universal use features an electric induction furnace. Slags from the melting processes in a foundry can be in the form of gravel, or the slag from a cupola furnace can be granulated. The utilization of slags from foundry processes is very delimited in Slovakia because of their quantity. This article deals with the possibility of using foundry slag as a binder in civil engi- neering.

Irons NUMBER OF PAGES: xix, 131 Final Report- Steelmaking Course ii Master Thesis- J. Pérez McMaster University- Materials Science and Engineering ABSTRACT In Secondary Steelmaking Processes, one of the most used technologies is the Ladle Metallurgy Furnace (LMF). This unit operation enables the adjustment of the chemical composition by ferroalloy addition, electrical reheating to the aim temperature, desulphurization and float out of the inclusions produced during steel deoxidation. The inclusions are harmful to the steel cleanliness. Process parameters such as stirring and steel and slag oxidation must be controlled to obtain a final number of inclusions in the steel whose size is smaller than the critical size for each steel product. This thesis concerns the development of a mathematical model to predict inclusion control during the ladle metallurgy process. Three parameters are evaluated, the initial steel oxidation level, the impact of the slag oxidation level on the reoxidation, and the stirring power with a double effect: to float out inclusions and produce reoxidation.
