Through visualization experiments, the macroinstability behaviour in the molten pool of the oxygen coal combustion melting and separation furnace was analysed by a physical simulation. In the experiment, images were acquired using a high-speed camera and an image processing system was used to track the gas-phase change in the local area of the molten pool and regular fluctuation of the molten pool in real time. Among them, bubble as the carrier of jet energy transfer and liquid level fluctuation. A close connection was observed between the local area bubble motion, jet behaviour, and macroinstability characteristics of the liquid level. The effects of different variables on the local stirring of the molten pool and overall macroinstability were compared. The developed ironmaking process parameters were optimized. The optimal immersion depth of the oxygen lance was 15 mm, while the optimal diameter of the oxygen lance was 4 mm.
In view of the influence of tuyere layout change on velocity field in oxy-coal combustor-melter-separator furnace, three-dimensional numerical simulation method was used to compare the distribution of velocity field in the furnace under different tuyere layout. The purpose is to explore the influence of the velocity distribution on the molten pool flow in the process of multi-tuyere injection. It is shown that the maximum velocity of the upper and lower tuyeres is 60 m/s and 50 m/s. And the change of tuyere has a significant effect on the velocity distribution in the molten pool, and the sudden change of velocity near the tuyere will trigger a certain scale of gyratory zone. In addition, the change of tuyere arrangement will result in the concentration of velocity distribution in the molten pool and the increase of flow dead zone, while the change of tuyere spacing will not only promote the increase of flow dead zone, but also reduce the velocity distribution area.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
