Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of blast furnace ironmaking technology, and in particular to a method for simulating and testing the combustion rate of pulverized coal at the tuyeres of a hydrogen-rich blast furnace. Background Technology

[0002] Pulverized coal injection in blast furnaces is currently one of the effective means to replace expensive metallurgical coke, reduce production costs, and improve production efficiency. High temperature, high pressure, and multi-component gas are typical characteristics of the three regions of the blast furnace: direct-blown pipe, tuyeres, and swirl zone. This is because the temperature of the hot blast blown into the blast furnace is approximately 1200℃, and the pressure is approximately 0.4MPa, resulting in a high-speed turbulent flow of hot blast at the direct-blown pipe. Therefore, once pulverized coal is injected into the direct-blown pipe, it is rapidly heated, with a heating rate as high as 10... 3 ~10 6 ℃·s -1 Furthermore, the residence time of pulverized coal in the direct-fired tube is very short, only about 10ms. Such a short residence time poses a challenge to whether the pulverized coal can be fully combusted. If the pulverized coal is not fully combusted, resulting in too much unburned pulverized coal remaining in the furnace, it may increase the viscosity of the slag, cause accumulation in the hearth, reduce the porosity of the burden, increase the resistance to the passage of gas in the furnace, and affect the stable operation of the blast furnace. Therefore, whether the injected pulverized coal can be fully combusted at the blast furnace tuyeres is crucial to the blast furnace ironmaking industry.

[0003] Invention patent (application number CN) Patent 202010136078.1 discloses a method for determining the test parameters of pulverized coal combustion rate in blast furnaces under different coal ratios. Based on the ratio of the horizontal cross-sectional area of ​​the blast furnace tuyeres to the cross-sectional area of ​​the crucible in the pulverized coal combustion rate test, the air flow rate in the pulverized coal combustion rate test is determined. Based on the ratio of the air flow rate to the blast furnace blast volume under a set coal ratio M, the weight of pulverized coal in the pulverized coal combustion test is determined, thus completing the determination of the test parameters of pulverized coal combustion rate under coal ratio M. Although this method references actual parameters such as the horizontal cross-sectional area of ​​the blast furnace tuyeres and the blast furnace blast volume, its pulverized coal combustibility test method is thermogravimetric analysis, which measures the combustion performance of pulverized coal based on different heating rates or temperatures. This test method differs significantly from the actual behavior of pulverized coal in a blast furnace. In actual production, after pulverized coal is injected into the blast furnace, it is rapidly heated and in a high-speed motion state, resulting in a short residence time in the tuyeres tuyeres. Therefore, the test error of the pulverized coal combustion rate in the above patent is relatively large, and the results still cannot accurately reflect the combustion situation of pulverized coal in the blast furnace.

[0004] In recent years, with the continuous maturation of blast furnace pulverized coal injection technology, in order to reduce energy consumption, a technology has emerged that uses hydrogen-rich gas to replace part of the pulverized coal injected into the blast furnace through the tuyeres. Furthermore, a simulation test device for simultaneously injecting pulverized coal and hydrogen-rich gas into the blast furnace (utility model patent application number CN 202220205492.8) has been invented to simulate this type of working condition. However, how to convert the actual working conditions of the blast furnace tuyeres swirling zone to laboratory experimental conditions, so that the experimental results are closer to the actual field conditions and can guide actual production, is a problem that blast furnace ironmaking workers are eager to solve.

[0100]

[0101] In the formula: X CO The values ​​are the mole fractions of CO2 and CO generated from the combustion of 0.1g of pulverized coal, as measured by a gas analyzer. Theoretically, this represents the mole fraction of CO2 generated from the complete combustion of carbon in pulverized coal and hydrogen-rich gas.

[0102] in, The calculation method is as follows: In the formula, N is the molar amount of N mol coal powder and carbon in hydrogen-rich gas that is completely converted into CO2; Q includes the molar amount of gas decomposed from coal powder and hydrogen-rich gas as measured by the gas analyzer; L is L mol of gas, including gas that enters the gas collecting bottle before contacting coal powder and gas that collides and mixes with coal powder during injection; it should be noted that the gas decomposed from coal powder and hydrogen-rich gas includes hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen decomposed from coal powder, and CO and hydrogen decomposed from hydrogen-rich gas.

[0103] Where N = n C +n CH4 n C n is the molar amount of carbon in pulverized coal.

[0106]

[0107] As shown in the table, the repeatability test of the pulverized coal combustion rate of the hydrogen-rich blast furnace using this simulation test method yielded results with little difference, indicating that the experimental data is relatively accurate. This data has certain reference value for the actual operation of the hydrogen-rich blast furnace and can be used to adjust the actual operating conditions of the hydrogen-rich blast furnace based on the combustion rate.

[0108] In summary, the method for simulating and testing the pulverized coal combustion rate at the tuyere of a hydrogen-rich blast furnace provided by this invention determines the amount of hydrogen-rich gas injected at a single tuyere, the amount of pulverized coal injected, the amount of oxygen injected, and the amount of carrier gas injected based on the actual blast furnace process parameters. This allows for the calculation of the molar amount of carbon atoms, the molar amount of oxygen atoms, the oxygen-carbon ratio, and the volume ratio of oxygen to hydrogen-rich gas at a single tuyere. Furthermore, by combining the pipeline of a novel blast furnace composite injection simulation experimental device, the experimental oxygen volume and experimental hot blast volume are obtained, thereby calculating the amount of pulverized coal injected, the amount of hydrogen-rich gas, the oxygen volume fraction in the carrier gas, and the nitrogen gas integral number under the experimental conditions. Finally, the experiment is conducted in the experimental device based on the obtained experimental parameters, and the combustion rate is calculated based on the results of the gas analyzer. This invention establishes the relationship between pulverized coal injection and the carbon-oxygen atomic ratio through mathematical derivation, and calculates the amount of pulverized coal injected in the experiment. Relying on a novel blast furnace composite injection simulation experimental device, it calculates the injection volume of hydrogen-rich gas and the volume fraction of oxygen and nitrogen in the carrier gas under experimental conditions through relevant blast furnace injection parameters. By simulating the behavior of pulverized coal injection into the furnace and its combustion process in an actual blast furnace in the experimental device, it accurately reflects the actual combustion rate of pulverized coal at the tuyeres of a hydrogen-rich blast furnace, which has important guiding significance for the actual production of hydrogen-rich blast furnaces.
