Abstract:A novel raceway heat and material balance model is developed considering all physico-chemical phenomena surrounding the raceway of the blast furnace (BF). This model is unique, as it considers reactions based on thermodynamics and determines important parameters such as raceway adiabatic flame temperature (RAFT), bosh gas properties, raceway coke rate etc. Importantly, the model also predicts blowing parameters in case of known RAFT and permeability of the furnace. This paper focuses on the raceway regime only… Show more
