Funded Activity Summary

Blast furnace ironmaking: from fundamental simulation to process modelling. This project will investigate the fundamentals governing the complex gas-powder-liquid-solid flow and thermochemical processes in an ironmaking blast furnace by a combined theoretical and experimental program. It focuses on the cohesive zone and raceway phenomena in the furnace and aims to develop, based on the parallel fundamental numerical and experimental studies, a process model that can predict reliably the performance of a blast furnace under different conditions. It will provide a basis for developing better control strategies and extending furnace campaign life, leading to an improved competitiveness of the Australia's steel industry.
