The main objective of the second part is the elucidation of key factors influencing the process efficiency, particularly the sintering completeness, velocity of the heat wave propagation and maximum temperature achievable in the pellet during the wave propagation. Numerical results reveal that the mass fraction of coal, diameter of coal particles and air inlet velocity are of prime importance in determining efficiency of the MEBIOS sintering process.展开更多

The MEBIOS process, the concept of which has been proposed ear- lier by the authors, allows using both coarse and fine particles of iron ores in the same sinter bed. The study includes two parts. The first part describes the model content and the results of its experimental verification. The model ac- counts for coal combustion, limestone decomposition, moisture evaporation/condensation, and melting/solidifying of solid phases. The model predictions are in good agreement with the experimental data. Typical numerical results of the sintering process and the key parameters influencing the process efficiency are discussed in the second part of the study.展开更多
