Abstract
In view of the influence of tuyere layout change on velocity field in oxy-coal combustor-melter-separator furnace, three-dimensional numerical simulation method was used to compare the distribution of velocity field in the furnace under different tuyere layout. The purpose is to explore the influence of the velocity distribution on the molten pool flow in the process of multi-tuyere injection. It is shown that the maximum velocity of the upper and lower tuyeres is 60 m/s and 50 m/s. And the change of tuyere has a significant effect on the velocity distribution in the molten pool, and the sudden change of velocity near the tuyere will trigger a certain scale of gyratory zone. In addition, the change of tuyere arrangement will result in the concentration of velocity distribution in the molten pool and the increase of flow dead zone, while the change of tuyere spacing will not only promote the increase of flow dead zone, but also reduce the velocity distribution area.
期刊介绍:
Metallurgical Research and Technology (MRT) is a peer-reviewed bi-monthly journal publishing original high-quality research papers in areas ranging from process metallurgy to metal product properties and applications of ferrous and non-ferrous metals and alloys, including light-metals. It covers also the materials involved in the metal processing as ores, refractories and slags.
The journal is listed in the citation index Web of Science and has an Impact Factor.
It is highly concerned by the technological innovation as a support of the metallurgical industry at a time when it has to tackle severe challenges like energy, raw materials, sustainability, environment... Strengthening and enhancing the dialogue between science and industry is at the heart of the scope of MRT. This is why it welcomes manuscripts focusing on industrial practice, as well as basic metallurgical knowledge or review articles.
