In this paper we proposed a modeling method of the electrode lift controlling plant of a n ultra high power electric furnace and verified the accuracy of the proposed model by simulation an d field test. Keyword: ultra high power (UHP) electric furnace, electric lift device, electric lift control

To evaluate the effects of industrial by-products materials on the performance of porous concrete for plant growth, this study investigated the physical, strength, and freeze/thaw resistances of porous concrete for plant growth, prepared by replacing cement with blast furnace slag powder at 60% by weight, and replacing natural stone aggregates with coarse blast furnace slag aggregates at rates ...

A mathematical model of a continuous reheating furnace has been developed to identify the design and operating parameters that significantly affect furnace performance. In this study, the furnace is modeled 3 dimensionally and theMonte Carlomethod is used to find the overall absorption factor. The overall absorption factor is then used to calculate the energy balance for furnace walls, the gas,...

The objective of this study was to develop an integrated simulation model of an automatic blast furnace in a full-scale steelmaking factory. The integrated simulation model introduces a set of optimizing alternatives through sensitivity analysis. The simulation model is built by considering all major and detailed operations and interacting systems of the blast furnace workshop. The workshop is ...

The walking beam furnace is one of the most prominent process plants often met in an alloy steel production factory and characterised by high non-linearity, strong coupling, time delay, large time-constant and time variation in its parameter set and structure. From another viewpoint, the walking beam furnace is a distributed-parameter process in which the distribution of temperature is not unif...

Two atomic absorption techniques, acid digestion followed by conventional flame analysis and directanalysisof solidsamples with the graphite furnace, were compared forthe determination of copper in fingernails. Nail samples, from 11 persons, containing between 5 and 50 1zg/gof copper, were analyzed by both methods. There was good correlationbetween resultsofthe two.The furnace requires less sam...

Abstract: Properly understanding heat flux characteristics is a crucial prerequisite to efficiently applying a regenerative burner in an aluminum reheating furnace. A series of experiments was conducted in this study in order to establish a database of the best available burners according to furnace temperature, excess air ratio, and flame combustion mode as they affect heat flux characteristic...
