Blast Furnace Hot Air Flow Control

The present invention is to distribute the flow rate blown from the blower (Blower) to each hot stove uniformly when blowing a high temperature hot air produced in a hot stove (Hot Stove) installed in parallel to a plurality of hot stoves (Blast Furnace) A blast furnace hot air flow rate control method.

In general, in the blast furnace, the hot heat produced in the hot blast furnace is blown into the blast furnace by the cold wind from the blower to produce molten iron by the reduction of coke inside the blast furnace.

Referring to FIG. 1, a conventional hot air blowing method is as follows.

First, in the combustion chamber 30c of the hot stove 30, a mixed gas (Bix Furnace Gas) and coke gas (Cokes Oven Gas) generated from the blast furnace 31 are sucked from the air inhaler 34b. Combustion by mixing with atmospheric air.

The high temperature heat generated by the combustion is accumulated in the heat storage chamber 30b of the hot stove 30, and the heat storage chamber 30b is composed of a lead 30o which is a material capable of accumulating high temperature heat.

When the high temperature heat is stored in the order of blowing according to the hot stove blowing method, the blowing flow rate control valve 30a is opened, and the heat storage chamber 30b, the combustion chamber 30c, the mixed cooling chamber 30d, the hot wind valve 36, and the air vent It blows into the blast furnace 31 through 37 in order.

At this time, when the temperature does not match the control target temperature, the cold air mixing control valve 35 is opened and closed to perform temperature control.

On the other hand, iron ore and coke, which are raw materials and subsidiary materials, are charged into the blast furnace 31 through the upper part of the blast furnace 31, and the molten iron is produced by the reduction action of the coke in the blast furnace 31 and is outboard.

On the other hand, the gas generated in the process is used to remove the dust in the clean facility (Dust Catcher) through the top of the blast furnace 31 is used as a heat source for combustion.

Typically, the blast furnace 31 is equipped with four hot blast furnaces (30, 40, 50, 60), the working method is composed of two combustion, two blowing, one burner is required for combustion and blowing It takes about 50 minutes.

Since the two hot blast blowing method is adopted as described above, the total blown air flow rate is distributed to the two hot blast furnaces at the front end of the hot blast furnace, and the blowing is performed.

However, the blowing flow rate is controlled by two hot stoves due to the difference in distance between the blowing line, which is the distance from the blowing flow control valves 30a, 40a, 50a, 60a to the blast furnace 31, and the decompression due to the blockage in the hot stove. The difference in the flow rate is generated.

Therefore, the hot air flows in which two of the hot air flows have a large flow rate, so that the accumulated heat is consumed, so that the heat is lowered below the transformation point temperature (573 ° C.) of the smoke in the hot air furnace and cracks and deformation of the high heat accumulation lead in the heat storage chamber are eliminated. There was a problem of causing local redness of the bark due to the loss of mortar of the lead and gap.

In addition, there is no countermeasure even if the above-mentioned problems occur because the operator cannot sense the flow rate of air passing through each hot blast furnace at the time of blowing operation.

Therefore, in the related art, it is not possible to measure and detect the blowing flow rate flowing through each of the hot blast furnaces. Thus, the blowing operation was performed by manually setting the opening degree of the blast flow control valve on the basis of the residual heat state in the heat blast storage chamber after the blowing.

However, this method cannot directly measure the blowing flow rate during blowing, so that it is impossible to evenly distribute the blowing flow rate, which leads to wear of the lead due to the temperature decrease in the heat storage chamber and unnecessary energy due to the deterioration of combustion efficiency of the hot blast furnace. Problems such as waste have occurred.

The present invention has been invented to solve the above problems, the blast furnace hot air blast furnace to protect the facility by improving the heat storage management of the hot blast furnace by detecting and controlling the flow rate of the air flowing in each hot blast furnace at the time of blowing operation It is an object of the present invention to provide a flow control method.

The present invention for achieving the above object is a blast furnace blower is provided in parallel with a plurality of hot blast furnace for supplying hot air as a heat source in the blast furnace, hot air blown by measuring the total blown air flow blown from the blower The blowing flow rate is set for each hot blast furnace by dividing the number of furnaces, and the inlet pressure and the differential pressure of each hot blast furnace are measured and converted into the blowing flows of the respective hot blast furnaces. If there is, it is characterized by changing the opening and closing degree of the air flow rate control valve to equalize the air flow rate to each hot blast furnace.

The present invention relates to a blast furnace blower having a plurality of hot blast furnaces for supplying hot blast as a heat source in a blast furnace, wherein the total blast flow rate from the blower is detected by using a total blast flow rate detector, By dividing the total blowing flow rate by the number, the blowing flow rate setting value is set for each hot stove, and the actual blowing flow rate is obtained by using the inlet pressure and the differential pressure detected using the inlet pressure detector and the differential pressure detector of each hot stove. In the case where a deviation occurs by comparing the airflow flow rate setting value with the actual airflow flow rate, the airflow flow control valve is opened and closed to control the airflow flow rate constantly.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a hot blast blow flow rate control apparatus used in the present invention, Figure 4 is an explanatory view showing an embodiment of a hot blast blow flow rate control method according to the present invention, Figure 5 is a hot blast blower of the present invention This is a flow chart of the flow control method.

First, as shown in FIG. 3, only two hot stoves 30 and 40 are blown in the hot stove blower in which four hot stoves 30, 40, 50, and 60 are arranged in parallel, and the remaining two hot stoves 50, 60 assumes that the combustion operation is carried out.

The total blown air flow rate blown by the blower 23 is distributed and blown to the blast furnace 31 via the respective hot air paths 30 and 40.

The blowing air flows flowing into each of the hot air paths 30 and 40 are set to half of the flow rate detected by the total blowing air flow rate detector 23a, and the inlet pressure detectors 30e and 40e and the differential pressure detectors 30f and 40f. When the detected value is calculated by the calculator and the deviation is compared with the blown flow rate setting value, the blown flow rate control valves 30a and 40a are opened and closed to control constantly.

Hereinafter, the control method will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 4.

First, the total air flow rate from the blower 23 is detected by using the total air flow rate detector 23a, and divided into the number of hot air paths (two in the present embodiment) for blowing the air flow through the set meter 23b. The blower flow rate is set for each hot stove 30 and 40 and input to each of the control apparatuses 30j and 40j.

Next, the inlet pressures are detected by the respective inlet pressure detectors 30e and 40e and input to the pressure gauges 30g and 40g of the control system, and the input pressure data is converted into digital signals, and again the arithmetic instruments 30i and 40i. Type in

In addition, the differential pressure detectors 30f and 40f detect the difference between the inlet pressure and the outlet pressure, input the differential pressure gauges 30h and 40h, convert the digital signals into digital signals, and then transfer them to the operational counters 30i and 40i.

In the operation meter, the two signals thus input are performed to subtract the differential pressure signal from the inlet pressure signal, and then transmitted to the control instruments 30j and 40j, and the control signals 30j and 40j transmit the input signals to the inlet pressure. By dividing by and multiplying the total blowing flow rate, the actual blowing flow rate in each of the hot air paths 30 and 40 is calculated.

In the case where a deviation occurs by comparing the set value of the blowing flow rate and the actual blowing flow rate value obtained through the above process, the output value is sent to the blowing flow control valves 30a and 40a to increase or decrease the blowing flow rate. It is possible to control the flow rate of air at 30 and 40 constantly.

As described above, when the present invention is used, the actual air flow rate and the air flow rate set value in each hot air path are compared, and the air flow rate of each hot air path is controlled by controlling the opening and closing degree of the air flow control valve according to the deviation of both. By evenly distributing, it is possible to prevent premature wear and redness of the bark installed in the heat storage heat storage chamber.
