For the problem of inaccurate prediction due to the large variation range of oxygen absorption rate under different process conditions, we statistically analyzed the main factors affecting the oxygen absorption rate. The backpropagation neural network was used to train and predict the oxygen absorption rate and was used to calculate the RH decarburization reaction zone model. We designed and developed a mathematical modeling software with process control of decarburization in RH degasser, which can realize the change of operating process parameters in the dynamic prediction process. The optimized mathematical model has more than 95% of the furnaces whose absolute error in calculation of carbon content is within ± 5 × 10^(−6), more than 90% of the heats whose relative error in calculation of oxygen content is within ± 15%, and the average absolute error of calculation of oxygen content is 26.4 × 10^(−6). Finally, we studied the influence of oxygen blowing timing, oxygen blowing volume and initial oxygen content on the forced decarburization process.展开更多
