Heat transfer in steelmaking ladle refractories and steel temperature

Abstract

The process of heat transfer in the steelmaking ladle refractories was investigated. Several techniques of modeling the heat loss were also discussed. Processes from continuous casting to optics were scheduled in the design of physical models. The thermal condition of the system was evaluated by thoroughly analyzing the experimental observations. Heat and mass transfer of the ladle system clearly projected the thermal stability along with the stratification parameters. Computation parameters of the on-line simulated system were also reported.
