Abstract:
Reasonable iron ore reduction and melting prediction are critical issues for blast furnace modeling. The particle number required for full-scale blast furnace simulations exceeds the current capabilities of discrete element method (DEM) approaches. Continuum or Euler-based approaches can handle industry-scale equipment at reduced accuracy. This work explores the capabilities of a novel Eulerian-based reduction model based on a multi-fluid simulation framework. The reduction model uses a layer-like approach based on the representative particle assumption, and its performance is validated and evaluated against lab-scale experimental data.
