AI Technical Summary
In the process of magnesium tapping from the bottom of the vertical tank in the Pidgeon process, uneven distribution of furnace charge particles leads to segregation of gas flow and local overheating. The heat transfer effect is complex and difficult to precisely control by optimizing process parameters, which affects the efficiency of the reduction reaction and energy consumption.
By acquiring particle distribution data in real time, image recognition algorithms are used to calculate the distribution uniformity index, and the feed rate and angle are adjusted. Heat transfer and flow field coupling effects are predicted by combining heat conduction and fluid dynamics models to optimize the gas flow rate and temperature distribution. Process parameters are optimized based on multi-parameter correlation models and genetic algorithms, and machine learning prediction models are constructed to achieve parameter coordination and consistency.
It improves the uniformity of furnace charge distribution, optimizes heat transfer, enhances reduction reaction efficiency and product quality, and reduces energy consumption.
