TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of blast furnace ironmaking, and in particular to a method for evaluating the activity of a blast furnace hearth by using a slag-iron retention index of the blast furnace hearth. BACKGROUND
[0002] As an important part of the steel industry, blast furnace ironmaking shoulders the heavy responsibility of rational utilization of resources and reduction of CO2 emissions for the entire industry. It is the trend of modern blast furnace technology development to achieve high yield, high quality, low consumption, long service life and safe production of blast furnaces, and the key lies in how to maintain a good working state of the blast furnace hearth. The working state of the hearth is closely related to the thermal state, gas and liquid permeability state, blast and slag-iron discharge state of the blast furnace, and is the basis for stable operation and long service life of the blast furnace.
[0003] Currently, the activity of the blast furnace hearth is mainly judged based on actual production experience in blast furnace production, and the activity of the blast furnace hearth is indirectly reflected by using characterization indicators. This method has certain hysteresis and theoretical limitations. In addition, an invention patent (application number CN201910694721.X) discloses a method for quantifying the activity of a blast furnace hearth, which is based on the slag-iron flow resistance coefficient f L , a new hearth activity index NHA is constructed, and the quantification of the activity of the blast furnace hearth is realized. However, this method mainly considers the influence of slag-iron parameters, and does not consider the influence of other factors (such as blast parameters) on the activity of the blast furnace hearth, resulting in low accuracy of the quantification result. Moreover, the parameters required for characterization are quite complex and cannot be directly obtained in blast furnace production, making it difficult to be directly applied to blast furnace production.
[0004] An invention patent (application number CN201810596710.3) discloses a system, method and device for detecting the activity of a blast furnace hearth. By simulating the process of slag-iron molten liquid passing through coke particles in the blast furnace hearth, the slag-iron retention rate is calculated, and the activity of the blast furnace hearth is reflected to provide theoretical guidance for actual production. This invention proposes to use the slag-iron retention rate to characterize the activity of the blast furnace hearth, which can characterize the potential activity of the blast furnace hearth. However, it does not consider the influence of the lower part of the blast furnace on the degree of activity of the blast furnace hearth and the state of the dead material column in the blast furnace hearth. Under the condition of change of the operation system of the blast furnace, the accuracy of predicting the activity of the blast furnace hearth needs to be improved.
[0005] From the prior art, it can be known that the existing evaluation and calculation models for the activity of the blast furnace hearth are not comprehensive enough, and the actual production conditions of the blast furnace, the shape and state of the dead material column, and the influence of various production parameters on the activity of the blast furnace hearth are not fully considered in the calculation process. Therefore, there is currently no method that can accurately and timely reflect the activity of the blast furnace hearth in accordance with the actual production of the blast furnace.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown in the drawings, the present application provides a method for evaluating the activity of the hearth of a blast furnace by using the slag iron retention index of the hearth, which comprises the following steps:
[0046] S1, constructing a slag iron retention amount model based on the calculation model of the slag iron retention rate and the dead man column volume;
[0047] S2, obtaining a slag iron retention index model by combining the slag iron retention amount model in step S1 with different specifications of the hearth of the blast furnace: In the formula, V L is the volume of the hearth of the blast furnace;
[0048] S3, obtaining the change trend of the slag iron retention index in the actual production of the blast furnace according to the slag iron retention index model obtained in step S2, so as to evaluate the activity of the hearth of different blast furnaces.
[0049] Specifically, in step S1, the slag iron retention amount model is: In the formula, h is the slag iron retention rate of the hearth (%), V d is the dead man column volume (m 3 );
[0050] The calculation model of the slag-iron retention rate of the hearth: In the formula, C pm is the capillary number, dimensionless; a is the viscosity correction coefficient, dimensionless; and b is the temperature correction coefficient, dimensionless. The viscosity correction coefficient a is calculated according to the slag viscosity μ and the standard viscosity μ0 of the slag at 1500°C; and the temperature correction coefficient b is calculated according to the slag melting temperature T r and the hot metal temperature T.
[0051] The calculation model of the dead material column volume: the length of the blast furnace tuyere rotation zone is calculated according to the blast parameters, and the size parameters required for calculating the dead material column volume are obtained according to the similar triangle principle in combination with the tapping parameters, and finally the calculation model of the dead material column volume is obtained.
[0052] Specifically, the calculation formula of the slag viscosity is: In the formula, μ is the slag viscosity (Pa·s), t is the slag temperature (°C), E is the blast kinetic energy (kg·m / s), A w is the bond correlation coefficient, dimensionless. In some specific embodiments, μ is the viscosity of the CaO-SiO2-Al2O3-MgO quaternary slag system, and for the CaO-SiO2-Al2O3-MgO quaternary slag system, In the formula, A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, and A7 are the correlation coefficients of Si-O-Si, Si-O-Al, Si-O-Ca, Al-O-Ca, Si-O-Mg, Al-O-Mg, and Al-O-Al, respectively.
[0053] The calculation formula of the slag melting temperature is: T r = 1204.6 + 5.902·m(Al2O3) - 2.961·m(MgO) + 90.286R, in which T r is the slag melting temperature (°C), m(Al2O3) is the mass content of Al2O3 in the blast furnace slag (wt%), m(MgO) is the mass content of MgO in the blast furnace slag (wt%), and R is the basicity (dimensionless), which is the mass ratio of CaO to SiO2.
[0054] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the influencing factors of the slag-iron retention rate mainly include the slag parameters, the coke parameters, the hot metal temperature (T), the dead material column porosity (ε), and the like. The specific parameters include the slag basicity, the slag magnesium-aluminum ratio, the coke particle size, the coke CRI, the coke CSR, the hot metal temperature, the slag titanium content, and the permeability index. By combining the actual data of the blast furnace production, the relationship between the slag-iron retention rate and the above factors is studied, the contribution degree of the above factors to the slag-iron retention rate is quantitatively determined, and the calculation model of the slag-iron retention rate is obtained. Figure 1The result graph of the contribution degree of each factor to the slag iron retention rate shows that the contribution degree of the above factors is in the following order: the contribution degree of the molten iron temperature is 35%, the contribution degree of the CSR is 26%, the contribution degree of the coke particle size is 13%, the contribution degree of the CRI is 12%, the contribution degree of the slag basicity is 8%, the contribution degree of the slag magnesium-aluminum ratio is 5%, and the contribution degree of the slag titanium content is 1%.
[0055] Therefore, in the establishment of the calculation model of the slag iron retention rate, the retention rate is corrected from two aspects of the chemical stability and the thermal stability of the slag, the flowability correction factor (i.e. the viscosity correction coefficient a) and the temperature correction factor (i.e. the temperature correction coefficient β) are introduced, so that the model is more in line with the actual production of the blast furnace; in the calculation of the capillary number representing the actual slag iron coke penetration process of the blast furnace, due to the complex environment of the blast furnace, the coke particle size, the CSR and the CRI are all changed from the charging to the tuyere, the accuracy of the charging coke particle size is poor in the traditional method; therefore, the charging coke particle size is replaced by the hearth coke particle size in the present application, so that the influence of the charging coke particle size on the actual production process of the blast furnace is eliminated, and the accuracy of the slag iron retention rate model is greatly improved.
[0056] Specifically, the flowability of the slag is affected by the slag composition, the slag density, the slag surface tension, the slag viscosity and the slag melting temperature, so the calculation formula of the capillary number representing the actual slag iron coke penetration process of the blast furnace is wherein, ρ L is the blast furnace slag density (kg / m 3 ), 2 , is the coke shape factor (dimensionless), d p is the hearth coke diameter (m), σ L is the slag surface tension (N / m), θ is the contact angle between the slag and the coke (generally 120°), and ε is the dead material column void fraction;
[0057] wherein, the hearth coke diameter d p is determined by: based on the blast furnace hearth damage investigation and the tuyere coke taking results, introducing the CSR, the CRI and the charging coke particle size parameters, constructing the relationship between the hearth coke diameter and the charging coke, and obtaining the hearth coke diameter.
[0058] The calculation formula of the blast furnace slag density is: ρ t =∑X MO ·ρ MO , wherein, ρ LBlast furnace slag density (kg / m³) 3 ), X MO ρ represents the molar percentage (%) of each component. MO Density of each component (kg / m³) 3 );
[0059] Formula for calculating the surface tension of slag: σ l =∑X MO ·σ MO In the formula σ L X represents the surface tension of the slag (N / m). MO σ represents the molar percentage (%) of each component. MO The surface tension of each component is (N / m).
[0060] Please see Figure 3 As shown, by evaluating the contribution of factors affecting the slag and iron retention in the blast furnace hearth (blast volume, oxygen content, blast temperature, blast pressure, and pulverized coal injection), and combining actual blast furnace production data, the contribution of each factor was assigned according to statistical principles. The results are as follows: blast volume contribution is 31%, taphole depth is 26%, blast temperature contribution is 18%, blast pressure contribution is 16%, pulverized coal injection contribution is 6%, and oxygen content contribution is 3%. The correlation ranking with the slag and iron retention model is: blast volume > taphole depth > blast temperature > blast pressure > pulverized coal injection > oxygen content. Therefore, this invention introduces blast parameters and tapping parameters into the calculation model of the dead material column volume, and then into the slag and iron retention model, to improve the quantitative accuracy of the slag and iron retention index model for the activity of the blast furnace hearth.
[0061] Specifically, the determination of the calculation model for the dead material column volume includes the following steps:

Specifically, approximate the irregular shape of the upper deadweight column in the blast furnace as an ideal "right circular cone," and the irregular shape of the lower deadweight column as an ideal "inverted frustum," with the deadweight column corners ranging from 30° to 40°. Figure 4 As shown;
[0063] SS2. Based on the relationship between the radius of the blast furnace hearth and the length of the blast furnace tuyeres, the radius of the dead material column tuyeres platform is calculated, and the diameter of the conical section of the dead material column on the same plane as the tuyeres platform is calculated based on the radius of the dead material column tuyeres platform.
[0064] SS3, such as Figure 4As shown, the positive conical dead man column has two groups of similar triangles, i.e. above the tuyere plane, above the taphole plane and above the dead man column conical angle; according to the principle of similar triangles, the dead man column conical angle cross section radius is obtained, and then the distance from the dead man column corner to the lower surface of the dead man column circular table is calculated;

[0068] The calculation formula of the distance from the dead man column corner to the dead man column circular table lower surface is h dd = (r d -r dd ) tan θ. In the formula, h dd is the distance from the dead man column corner to the dead man column circular table lower surface (m), r d is the dead man column conical angle cross section radius (m); θ is the dead man column corner; in some specific embodiments, the dead man column corner θ is 35°.

[0090] As can be seen from Table 2, this embodiment starts from the essence of slag iron clogging (porous medium model / slag iron flow resistance), uses mathematical theory derivation, introduces slag viscosity and molten iron temperature correction coefficient, and quantitatively calculates the slag iron retention rate. The derivation calculation process shows the scientificity of the present application; for the same blast furnace, the slag iron retention index and the slag iron retention amount trend are consistent, and the slag iron retention amount and the slag iron retention rate trend are consistent. In addition, combined with Table 1 and Table 2, when the blast furnace utilization factor is higher, the coal gas utilization rate is higher, and the fuel ratio is lower, the corresponding slag iron retention index is lower, which conforms to the influence law of hearth activity on the smooth production of blast furnace, further illustrating the scientificity and rationality of the present application. In addition, from Table 2, it can be obtained that the dead material column volume changes relatively small, which is consistent with the actual blast furnace production trend. In the process of blast furnace production, in order to ensure the stable production of blast furnace, the blast parameters and the tapping parameters will not be changed greatly, but due to the fluctuation of the furnace condition at individual moments, the blast / tapping system is forced to be changed, and the dead material column volume will change, which will affect the hearth activity of the blast furnace. The slag iron retention index model of the present application is used to evaluate the hearth activity, which comprehensively considers the influence of the change of the dead material column volume of the blast furnace on the hearth activity of the blast furnace. For different blast furnaces, the slag iron retention index considers the relative relationship between the dead material column volume and the hearth volume, and can directly compare the activity degree of blast furnaces with different furnace capacities, which shows the rationality and comprehensiveness of the slag iron retention index, and the evaluation results of the hearth activity of the blast furnace are more accurate and scientific.
[0091] In actual production of a blast furnace, if the volume of a dead material column of a blast furnace is too large, but the slag-iron temperature is relatively high and the slag-iron retention rate is low; if a traditional slag-iron retention rate evaluation method of furnace hearth activity is used, the low slag-iron retention rate indicates that the blast furnace hearth activity is good; but the blast furnace experts believe that the dead material column is excessively hypertrophic, and the blast furnace hearth is certainly not active, so the evaluation result of the method is obviously unreasonable. It can be seen that the slag-iron retention rate evaluation method of blast furnace hearth activity does not consider the influence of the volume of the dead material column on the activity of the blast furnace hearth, and the accuracy of the evaluation of the activity of the blast furnace hearth is not as good as that of the slag-iron retention index model; the method of evaluating the activity of the blast furnace hearth by the slag-iron retention index model is accurate, reasonable and scientific.
[0092] In summary, the application provides a method for evaluating the activity of a blast furnace hearth by a slag-iron retention index of the blast furnace hearth, which is based on a calculation model of the slag-iron retention rate and the volume of the dead material column, a slag-iron retention amount model is constructed, the slag-iron retention index model is obtained by combining the slag-iron retention amount model with different parameters of the blast furnace hearth, and the activity of the blast furnace hearth of different blast furnaces is evaluated according to the change trend of the slag-iron retention index in actual production of the blast furnace. The slag-iron retention amount of the blast furnace hearth is calculated in the slag-iron retention index model for evaluating the activity of the blast furnace hearth, the contribution degrees of factors influencing the slag-iron retention amount are evaluated by using a multi-factor coupling analysis method, the factors with high correlation are introduced into the slag-iron retention amount model, and then introduced into the slag-iron retention index model, thereby improving the accuracy of the model in evaluating the activity of the blast furnace hearth. The slag-iron retention index model is a relatively comprehensive model integrating the slag-iron composition, the slag-iron temperature, the blast parameter and the tapping parameter, and realizes the rapid and accurate evaluation of the activity of the blast furnace hearth in actual production. The application starts from the actual smelting of the blast furnace, comprehensively considers the influence of various production parameters of the blast furnace on the activity of the blast furnace hearth in actual production, and establishes a scientific and systematic method for evaluating the activity of the blast furnace hearth. When the application is applied to actual production of the blast furnace, the activity of the blast furnace hearth can be timely and accurately reflected, and the significance of guiding the actual production of the blast furnace is achieved.
