Mathematical Modelling for Blast Furnace Charging
We provide effective charging is crucial for achieving optimum operation of blast furnaces.
To assist the development of good charging practice, RD&T has developed a model to show charge build up in blast furnaces.
Customer Benefits include knowledge about:
- Stockline geometry.
- Layer formation.
- Material falling curves.
- Material size distribution on stockline.
- Ore to coke ratios and size distribution across the furnace.
- Off-line prediction of the effects of changes to burden distribution.
- An essential tool for understanding the characteristics of the installed burden distribution system (MTA or PWT).
