“…and shaft furnace including falling trajectory, [7][8][9][10][11][12] burden profile, [13][14][15] burden pile structure [16][17][18][19] and the descent of burden layer, 20,21) only a few studies were dedicated to the burden distribution in the MG to achieve reasonable gas flow, mainly due to the short history of the process and limited experimental techniques. [22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29] Several numerical studies on the COREX MG were conducted.…”
