Description

Physical simulation method for slag foaming in converter
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of ferrous metallurgy, and particularly relates to a physical simulation method for foaming of molten slag in a converter.
Background
Slag foaming is a common phenomenon throughout the metallurgical process and plays an extremely important role in the steel making process. The proper foaming is beneficial to increasing the reaction interfacial area between slag-gold-gas and improving the smelting efficiency and the energy utilization efficiency. Insufficient or excessive foaming can not only affect smelting efficiency, but also cause splashing accidents in severe cases, and cause personal injuries and equipment damages. Therefore, the accurate control of slag foaming is of great significance to the high-efficiency production and safety guarantee of the metallurgical process.
At present, three research means of high-temperature experimental simulation, cold-state physical simulation and numerical simulation are mainly used for researching slag foaming. However, since the slag foaming is difficult to observe and sample under high temperature conditions, the high temperature experimental simulation of the slag foaming is greatly restricted, and the complicated slag-gold-gas multiphase reaction in the molten bath also causes great difficulty in mathematical simulation, the research on the forming mechanism and the control method of the converter splashing is still deficient. In comparison, the cold physical simulation has many advantages such as safety, reality and simple operation. The physical simulation method must follow a similar theory, firstly, the geometric similarity of a model and a prototype must be satisfied, secondly, the dynamic similarity is also an important similar condition, and molten steel, oil simulation molten steel and molten slag are usually selected according to the physical property similarity in an experiment.
In the converter smelting process, the foaming of the molten slag is mainly caused by a large amount of CO and CO generated by decarburization reaction2Caused by gas (internal gas generation source). At present, compressed air is usually used for simulating high-speed oxygen lance jet flow in a converter physical simulation experiment, but the simulation of slag-gold-gas multiphase reaction (such as decarburization reaction on a slag-gold interface) is rarely reported, and the simulation of a slag foaming process in the converter is still blank. The patent CN205517664U relates to a device for simulating the interaction of the gas products of chemical reactions in converter steelmaking with the molten bath, which simulates the gas generated by chemical reactions by introducing compressed air at different heights inside the converter model molten bath, and in fact this gas is still an external source of introduced gas and not chemically reactive. There is a substantial difference in the foamed slag produced by the internal and external bleed air sources. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a physical simulation method for slag foaming in a converter, which provides reference for the theoretical research on slag foaming.

Secondly, adding sodium carbonate particles from the upper part of a converter mouth of the physical model of the converter; the particle size of the sodium carbonate particles is 1000 mu m, and the amount of substances added into the sodium carbonate particles is 1/2 times of H+The amount of the substance.
The third stepOpening the top-blowing oxygen lance to supply gas, and precipitating sodium carbonate particles to an acid-oil interface through an oil layer by means of jet flow of the oxygen lance to react with a dilute sulfuric acid solution to generate a large amount of CO2Gas, thereby foaming the oil layer, and recording the change in the height of the foam level.
The evolution process of slag foaming during converter smelting simulated in this example is shown in FIG. 1. Impacting Na in the pit area under the impact action of top-blown jet flow after gas supply is started2CO3The particles react first with the underlying dilute sulfuric acid solution. Subsequently, Na in other regions2CO3The particles are all gradually settled to the interface of the dimethyl silicone oil-dilute sulfuric acid solution, and the interface of the dimethyl silicone oil-dilute sulfuric acid solution is Na2CO3The main site of chemical reaction with dilute sulfuric acid solution. As the chemical reaction proceeds, tiny CO is continuously generated on the interface of the dimethyl silicon oil-dilute sulfuric acid solution2Air bubbles. Under the action of buoyancy, these CO2The bubbles slowly float upwards in the simethicone layer, and finally accumulate on the simethicone liquid level to form a stable foam layer, and the thickness of the simethicone foam layer is continuously increased along with the time. When the gas generation speed on the dimethylsilicone oil-dilute sulfuric acid solution interface is equal to the bubble rupture speed on the liquid surface, the thickness of the foam layer reaches the maximum and does not change any more. The average diameter of the bubbles increases from 0.50mm to 5.46mm as the height increases within the foam layer, and the shape of the bubbles changes from spherical to irregular. As the reactants are consumed, the rate of gas generation decreases and the foam layer begins to decay, the rate of decay becoming less as the height decreases.
