Abstract In order to study the effect of oxygen-enriched combustion technology on the temperature field and NO emission in the continuous heating furnace, this paper studies the oxygen-enriched combustion of a pushing steel continuous heating furnace in a domestic company. This study utilizes numerical simulation method, establishes the mathematical models of flow, combustion and NO generation combustion process in the furnace and analyzes the heat transfer process and NO generation in the furnace under different air oxygen content and different wind ratio. The research results show that with the increase of oxygen content in the air, More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract A simulation of reheating furnace in a steel production line where the steel billets are heated from room temperature up to 1200 ˚C, is carried out using a novel meshless solution procedure. The reheating of the steel billets before the continuous hot-rolling process should be employed to dissolve alloying elements as much as possible and redistribute the carbon. In this work, governing equations are solved by the local radial basis function collocation method (LRBFCM) in a strong form with explicit time-stepping. The solution of the diffusion equations for the temperature and carbon concentration fields is… More >

Abstract Traditional methods of enhancing the thermal efficiency of heating furnaces in continuously producing oilfields, such as replacing existing units with more efficient units or renovating old furnaces, are highly inconvenient. This paper studied on the characteristics of nanofluids, a novel heat transfer medium with excellent heat transfer characteristics to enhance the thermal efficiency of heating furnaces. The stable nanofluids (Al₂O₃-H₂O, SiO₂- H₂O, and TiO₂-H₂O) were prepared by a two-step method and various chemical and physical treatments were carried out. Thermal conductivities of the nanofluids were measured using the transient hot-wire method. Based on the analysis, the most More >

Abstract The heating technological requirement of the conventional PID control is difficult to guarantee which based on the precise mathematical model, because the heating furnace for heating treatment with the big inertia, the pure time delay and nonlinear time-varying. Proposed one kind optimized variable method of PID controller based on the genetic algorithm with improved BP network that better realized the completely automatic intelligent control of the entire thermal process than the classics critical purporting (Z-N) method. A heating furnace for the object was simulated with MATLAB, simulation results show that the control system has the More >
