Investigation of the Splashing Characteristics of Lead Slag in Side-Blown Bath Melting Process

Aiming at the melt splashing behavior in smelting process of an oxygen-enriched side-blowing furnace, volume fluid model and realizable k−ε turbulence are coupled simulated. The effects different operating parameters (injection velocity, immersion depth, liquid level) on splash height explored, simulation results verified by water experiments. show that bubbles with residual kinetic energy escape to slag surface cause splashing. gradually increases increase injection time-averaged reaches 1.01 m when speed is 160 m/s. Increasing depth lance, decreases. When 0.12 m, 0.85 m. level beneficial reduce height, 2.7 reduces 0.77 With level, decreases, initial
