This invention provides a method for determining the optimal key furnace parameters of a gas-based vertical
shaft furnace based on CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics), relating to the field of metallurgical equipment design and numerical
simulation technology. The method includes: S1, constructing a geometric model of the gas-based vertical
shaft furnace and dividing it into meshes; S2, constructing a mechanistic model of gas-
solid phase energy and
mass flow and gas-
solid interphase mass and
heat transfer in the gas-based vertical
shaft furnace based on Eulerian two-phase flow; S3, determining the input operating parameters of the vertical shaft furnace; S4, performing numerical
simulation using the mechanistic model to solve for the
chemical reaction field, temperature field, and concentration field until iterative convergence; S5, extracting key production indicators from the
simulation results; and S6, determining the
optimal combination of key furnace parameters for the gas-based vertical shaft furnace based on the key production indicators. This invention achieves rapid prediction of the optimal key furnace parameters for a gas-based vertical shaft furnace by establishing CFD models of gas-
solid phase energy and
mass flow and gas-solid
interphase mass and
heat transfer in a gas-based vertical shaft furnace with different key furnace parameters, performing numerical simulations, and extracting key data for comparison.
