Description
Summary:Based on the expertise gained in the use of a 350-ton converter at the WSIWS Joint-Stock Co., blowing facilities and regimes have been modified. Low-temperature slag splashing is numerically simulated for a top-blown tuyere using tips with single and double-row nozzle arrangement. A slag-splashing tuyere fitted with a steel tip with a double-row arrangement of nozzles has been designed. Ways to improve the melting technology using modified tuyeres combining slag splashing and flame gunning operations and to improve repair of the lining using a vertical tuyere are proposed.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
