TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to metallurgical equipment technical field especially relates to a kind of electric arc furnace furnace nozzle heat preservation device. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the electric arc furnace smelting process, the furnace nozzle is the delivery channel of high-temperature molten material (such as clinker), and its performance directly affects the production efficiency and product quality. The upper half of the traditional furnace nozzle structure is exposed to the air for a long time. Because the furnace nozzle has a certain length, it will cause the following technical problems when discharging:
[0003] That is, when the high-temperature molten clinker flows through the furnace nozzle, the upper half exposed to the air continuously loses heat due to thermal radiation and convection, causing uneven axial temperature distribution of the furnace nozzle. The temperature difference between the high-temperature end close to the electric arc furnace and the outlet end away from the furnace body is significant, and the temperature of the molten material continuously decreases during the flow process. As the smelting time passes, the temperature at the outlet end of the furnace nozzle gradually decreases to near the solidification point of the material, the viscosity of the molten clinker increases, and the flowability deteriorates, which may eventually cause the material to cool and solidify inside the furnace nozzle, resulting in blockage. This phenomenon is particularly pronounced when smelting high-melting-point materials or in low ambient temperatures. Once blockage occurs, the production must be stopped for cleaning, which not only disrupts the continuity of production but also requires manpower and resources to perform the unblocking operation. Frequent temperature fluctuations also accelerate the thermal fatigue damage of the refractory material of the furnace nozzle, reducing its service life.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an electric arc furnace furnace nozzle heat preservation device that can insulate the furnace nozzle, reduce the probability of solidification of molten material during discharge, and ensure the continuous and stable operation of the electric arc furnace.
