Abstract:In top blowing steelmaking, the impact behavior of the supersonic oxygen jet significantly affects the emulsification of slag–metal and the reaction rate in the molten bath. To enhance the mass transfer rate, a swirl-type oxygen lance is proposed. The mass transfer processes between slag and molten steel in the converter during the swirl-type oxygen lance blowing process are investigated. A mixing index Im is proposed to assess the slag–metal mixing degree, and the effects of operating parameters on mass trans… Show more
