Vapor explosion in steel mill industries: Chemical composition analysis on molten slag and coolant

Abstract

It is important to prevent vapor explosion for steel mill industries for the reason that explosions can produce overpressure which cause buildings and facilities to rupture.The spontaneous vapor explosion occurs when a molten slag contacts with coolant.In this research, the molten slag which includes more than 10 chemical compositions produced in actual steel mill industries is employed. Three types of coolant were
