Abstract

In order to clarify the function of softening-melting zone in a blast furnace, a mathematical model, by which the gas volume rate distribution through coke slits between softening-melting layers above “roots” can be calculated, is devised. Calculated results with Hirohata No. 1 blast furnace show that the greater part of bosh gas flow through the coke slits in lower softening-melting zone, and that the softening and melting-down volume of every softening-melting layer is proportional to the coke slit gas volume rate just under that layer.<BR>It is considered that the irregular shape of “root” softening-melting layers in Hirohata No. 1 blast furnace was mainly caused by the difference of blast volume rate at every tuyere.<BR>And also, from the relationship among the slit gas distribution, pressure drop and position of top softening-melting layer and inner or outer sides of softening-melting zone, which is calculated by the above mentioned mathematical model, a desirable profile of softening-melting zone is proposed.
