| Abstract Scope |
Electric arc furnace (EAF) is a furnace that utilizes electric energy and chemical energy to melt scraps. Coherent jet is used in EAF to help stir, melt and oxidizes the scraps. This study is focused on the numerical modeling of the jet heating phenomenon through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. The approach of this study is to inject mixture gas of fuel and oxygen into a scrap zone. The fuel will be combusted to provide heat and the scrap phase will be simulated as porous media in Eulerian multi-phase model. A CFD code has been developed to simulate the momentum and energy interaction between the gas phase and scrap phase. This model will be able to simulate the heat transfer phenomenon within gas and solid phases. |
