• COMPREHENSIVE MODEL FOR BLAST FURNACE USING OPENFOAM® 

      ABHALE, P. B.; NAG, S.; BAPAT, Y.; KULKARNI, A.; VISWANATHAN, N. N. (SINTEF Proceedings;6, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Blast furnace is a complex, multi-phase and high temperature reactor involving multiple reactions between phases, heat transfer and phase change. Limited options are available to know internal state of the furnace through ...
    • Modelling combustion of pulverized coal and alternative carbon materials in the blast furnace raceway 

      Ölund, Martin; Ökvist, Lena S.; From, Lars-Erik; Sandström, Dan; Alatalo, Johanna (SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      The impact of injection lance design and injection materials on the combustion conditions inside the raceway of the blast furnace has been investigated. Operational injection tests in LKAB’s Experimental blast furnace have ...
    • Numerical predictions of the shape and size of the raceway zone in a blast furnace 

      Safronov, Dmitry; Richter, Andreas; Meyer, Bernd (SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      A 3D transient numerical model has been developed to predict the shape and size of the raceway zone created by the force of the blast air injected through the tuyeres in the coke bed of a blast furnace. The model is based ...
