A hydraulic model is used to study the flowing process within a bottom-blowing furnace designed by a company, and the VOF model is adopted to simulate its process. The VOF method can describe the formation, growing up and separation actions in theorizing process by comparing the simulation and experimental results, and this is a foundation of using a model to research the thermal process of the bottom-blowing furnace. It is indicated that a nozzle with disperse spouts can stir a larger zone, by comparing the influence on flowing process of four nozzles with different structures. The disperse spouts are benefit to increase the stirring and reaction efficiencies, but the pressure fluctuations near the nozzle export is more obvious, and it may affect the lifespan of the nozzle.
Roller quench is a rapid cooling technique used in strip continuous heat-treatment process, which is one of the most important processes in producing cold-rolled strip steel. Heat transports by contact heat transfer in roller quench, for the complex characteristics of contact heat transfer, roller quench is very difficulty to simulate. In this paper a roller quench heat transfer model is build based on Fourier-Kirchhoff differential equations. A new correlation function of contact conductance is developed from statistical mechanics model results by least square method. This correlation function solves the heat transfer boundary condition in contact region between strip and roller. In this model the contact radiation is also considered. The roller quench model predicts the heat transfer characteristics of roller quench. The model is useful for the designing and controlling of the roller quench system.
A three-dimensional mathematic model is developed for a 100kw single-end recuperative radiant tube and the simulation is performed with the CFD software FLUENT. Also it is used to investigate the effect of distance between combustion chamber exit and inner tube on heat transfer process. The results suggest that the peak value of combustion flame temperature drops along with the increasing of distance, which leads to low NOX discharging. Also radiant tube surface bulk temperature decreases, which causes radiant tube heating performance losses.
. A one-dimensional mathematical model was developed for describing heat and mass transfer process of lump coal falling in the freeboard zone of COREX melter-gasifier. The temperature distribution, law of moisture evaporation and removal of volatile of lump coal were obtained. Further more, the effects of operating parameters on heat and mass transfer phenomena of lump coal were studied.
On the basis of established mathematic model of regenerator heat transfer process, the process of heat transfer of ceramic honeycomb regenerator with the method of simulation is studied. The temperature distribution curve of regenerator and gas is obtained, the temperatures curve of regenerator and gas are closely related to time is investigated ,and the influence of operation and structure parameter to heat transfer of regenerator is discussed. All this work is to provide guides of rational design of single-ended regenerative burner.
