Numerical Methods for Simulating the Reduction of Iron Ore in Blast Furnace Shaft
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The blast furnace process is a countercurrent moving bed chemical reactor to reduce iron oxides to iron, which involves complex transport phenomena and chemical reactions. The iron ore and coke are alternatively charged ...
Numerical Simulation and Optimization of the Thermodynamic Process of the Molten Salt Furnace
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a numerical model of the molten salt furnace process was developed, by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique and considering the gas flow, the combustion and the radiation heat transfer. The ...
Simulation of an Industrial Tangentially Fired Boiler Firing Metallurgical Gases
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In industrial environments, boiler units are widely used to supply heat and electrical power. At an integrated steel mill, industrial boilers combust a variable mixture of metallurgical gases combined with additional fuels ...
Numerical Model of Thermoelectric Topping Cycle of Coal Fired Power Plant
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Traditional fossil fuel power generation process typically has low efficiency. Large amount of the energy loss in Rankine cycle steam turbines (ST) is due to the temperature difference between the combustion flame temperature ...
Numerical Simulation of an Industrial Fluid Catalytic Cracking Regenerator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) is one of the most important conversion processes in petroleum refineries, and the FCC regenerator is a key part of an FCC unit utilized in the recovery of solid catalyst reactivity by burning ...
