Funded Activity Summary

Development and application of a virtue experimental blast furnace. This project aims to develop a virtual experimental blast furnace based on advanced discrete particle simulation technique. It is intended that the model furnace will be used to study the flow and thermochemical behaviour in iron making, quantify the effects of key variables related to raw material and operational conditions, and formulate strategies for optimum process design and control under different conditions. The findings aim to be very useful to comprehensively assess the performance of Australian minerals in iron making, improve the energy efficiency and reduce carbon dioxide emission in the steel industry, and enhance the competitiveness of the Australian economy.
