Abstract:In order to explore the segregation behavior for mixed injection of pulverized coal and flux in blast furnace, the pulverized coal and flux were sampled and tested, and the industrial analysis results and elemental analysis results of pulverized coal were obtained, as well as the composition detection results of pulverized coal and flux. On this basis, Fluent software was used to numerically simulate and analyze the sedimentation law of different particles during the mixed injection and conveying process of pulverized coal and flux, and the effects of flux addition, carrier gas velocity and pipeline length on segregation were analyzed. The results show that the flux addition has little effect on the segregation. With the increase of carrier gas velocity, the degree of segregation gradually decreases. The longer the pipeline, the more pulverized coal is affected by segregation. Therefore, increasing the carrier gas velocity helps to suppress segregation. Excessive pipe length will not only increase the degree of particles sedimentation, but also increase the influence of segregation. The research results can provide guidance for the application of pulverized coal and flux mixed injection technology.
