Description
- The present invention generally relates to a shaft furnace charging installation, in particular to a discharge assembly arranged between a storage hopper and the shaft furnace.
- While not limited thereto, the present invention is particularly well suited for use in a shaft furnace charging installation of the Bell Less Top™ type as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,693,812. In this type of charging installation, the furnace is provided with at least two intermediate storage hoppers, which may be alternately opened to ambient atmosphere for loading material therefrom to the interior of the pressurized furnace via a discharge channel. Such furnace charging installations, as shown in U.S. Pat. No. 4,074,835, employ a pair of serially arranged valves between the storage hopper and the furnace. The first valve or material gate performs a material flow control or metering function, by increasing or reducing the area of the storage hopper discharge opening and thereby assists in the achievement of a desired distribution of material on the furnace hearth. The second valve or sealing valve functions to establish a hermetic seal required to permit the alternate pressurizing and depressurizing of the storage hopper.
- In the area of the material gate, dust build-up, due to condensation of blast furnace gas in combination with wet equalizing gas and dust particles from the charge material, may occur. Such dust build-up may accumulate on a protection ring and hinder the material gate from properly closing the hopper discharge opening. The limit switch, which indicates that the material gate is in its closed position, may not be activated. The charging sequence is thereby interrupted and is then necessary either to mechanically remove the build-up or to change the limit switch position. The latter can however cause further problems such as excessive wear on the seal on the sealing valve arranged downstream. This is caused by the fact that the material gate is not correctly closed and that a larger gap allows more charge material to leak through the closed material gate.
- Also, the dust build-up may be such that, in the closed position of the material gate, the latter rests on the dust build-up, thereby falsifying the weighing results of the charge material fed into the hopper.
- In order to avoid such dust build-up, it has been suggested to provide a steam heated panel behind the octagonal chute of the hopper. By heating such a heated panel to a temperature of about 120° C., condensation can be avoided, which means that dust-build-up and its consequences can also be avoided. Such a heated panel consists of a stainless steel casing formed into a shape matching the shape of the octagonal chute. Stainless steel pipes are arranged inside the steel casing and embedded in a heat conductive concrete.
- It has been found that the conditions of the blast furnace gas are such that the stainless steel casing and/or the stainless steel pipes quickly corrode and that the heated panel is thereby quickly destroyed and steam is allowed to escape from the stainless steel pipes into the blast furnace or hopper environment.
- The invention provides an improved blast furnace charging system, wherein the above drawbacks are avoided.
- More specifically, the present invention proposes a blast furnace charging system for feeding charge material into the hearth of a blast furnace, the system comprising at least two hoppers for temporarily storing charge material, each hopper comprising a discharge assembly for feeding the charge material from the respective hopper into the hearth of a blast furnace. The discharge assembly comprises an inclined discharge channel having, at its lower end, a material gate providing charge material flow control at the lower end of the discharge channel; and a protection ring arranged in the vicinity of the material gate for leading charge material from the discharge channel to a seal seat of the discharge assembly. The discharge assembly further comprises a heated panel arranged on the protection ring, the heated panel being formed by a panel-like copper body having fluid channels arranged therein so as to form a channel leading from a fluid inlet to a fluid outlet.
- The inventors have found that heated panels made of a panel-like copper body have good corrosion resistance against blast furnace gas, in particular against chlorides in the blast furnace gas. The heated panels according to the present invention therefore have longer lifetime and the risk of steam escaping from the fluid channels is reduced. This leads to a reduced number of maintenance interventions and hence fewer furnace stoppages.
- The copper heated panels also provide good heat transfer, enabling the heated plate to be heated to a higher temperature, when compared to the conventional stainless steel heated panels.
- The fluid channels in the panel-like copper body may be formed by casting. Alternatively, the fluid channels in the panel-like copper body may be formed by drilling. Plugs may be arranged in the end portions of the drilled fluid channels.
- Advantageously, the heated panel has a shape corresponding to the shape of the discharge channel, wherein the panel-like copper body is formed into the shaped heated panel after formation of the fluid channels therein.
- The heated panel preferably comprises a connection element for connecting the heated panel to the protection ring.
- A wear resistant copper alloy may further be arranged on a lower portion of a front face of the heated panel and on a front face of the connection element.
- Preferably, the fluid channels comprise a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, the fluid inlet and outlet being connected to a fluid circuit for delivering a hot fluid, e.g. steam, to the heated panel.
