A blast furnace with a blowpipe (12) opening through the furnace wall (11) has apparatus for analysis (20) in a raceway (18) adjacent the blowpipe opening in a bed of the blast furnace. The apparatus includes means (24) arranged in relation to the blast furnace to transmit an optical signal into the raceway and means (30) for monitoring a received signal derived from reflection or scattering of the transmitted optical signal in the raceway. Means (32) is provided to analyse the received signal in relation to the transmitter signal and to thereby obtain a measure of a parameter of the raceway. The method of analysis comprises transmitting an optical signal into the raceway, monitoring a received signal derived from reflection or scattering of the transmitted optical signal in the raceway, and analyzing the received signal in relation to the transmitted signal to obtain a measure of a parameter of the raceway.
摘要:
Apparatus for retrieving a sample of slag from the surface of molten steel contained in a ladle. A hoist positioned above the ladle lowers and raises an elongated metal rod which has cardboard and metal sleeves surrounding the lower portion of the elongated metal rod. A clean sample of molten slag tightly adheres to the metal sleeve as it is raised from the molten slag layer. The metal sleeve and slag sample are easily removed from the elongated metal rod for analysis.
摘要:
The device includes a radar antenna mounted at the inside end of an arm which can be horizontally inserted through the wall of the furnace above the loading surface, an electronic control and measuring unit placed outside the furnace, and one or two waveguides connecting the said antenna to the electronic unit through the arm. The waveguide or waveguides are duplicated by two reference waveguides of the same nature and of the same length but not connected to the said antenna systems in order to provide a forward and return path for a reference signal generated by the electronic unit and which remains correlated with the measurment signal to allow a better identification of the reflected signal.
摘要:
A radar probe including several individual scanning antennas is mounted in the wall of the furnace above the loading surface and performs a two-dimensional scanning of the entire loading surface.
摘要:
A method for operating a blast furnace by inferring the operating conditions in the blast furnace, on the basis of data supplied from sensors set in the blast furnace and also on the basis of the knowledge base formed by experience on the operation of the furnace by a small-scale computer and various processing units provided within the computer. Prior to the inference, the data from the sensors are processed by a large-scale computer and various processing units provided within the large-scale computer. The inference is performed by using certainty factor values, thereby making diagnosis of slip, hanging and channeling.
摘要:
Device for determining the charge profile in a shaft furnace. In order to be able to scan the entire burden surface at least over a right-angle graticule, a radar unit is arranged at the front end of a tubular lance, which latter can be radially introduced into the furnace, the beam direction of this radar unit being pivotable about the longitudinal axis of the tubular lance bilaterally over a predetermined angle, as well as about a transverse axis extending perpendicularly thereto, approximately by the same angle in the forward direction. The device is suitable for scanning the entire burden surface in a graticule mode as well as line-by-line, and the scanning results of the device can be made visible and can also be used as input data for the automatic control of the shaft furnace.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for directly observing the slag-foaming conditions in a vessel interior.A device for observing the vessel interior light is disposed in a throughhole extending through the side wall of a top-blowing or top- and bottom-blowing converter to reach the vessel interior. The converter operation can be carried out at a high accuracy on the basis of this observation.
摘要:
Apparatus for manipulating a probe which is to be coupled to a vertically movable probe lance, the lance having a longitudinal axis which is vertically oriented, which apparatus includes a supporting frame supported for pivotable movement about a stationary frame axis between a plurality of operating positions, an openable centering funnel supported by the frame, a lifting carriage supported by the frame for vertical movement relative to the frame, a probe holding clamp supported by the carriage at a location below the funnel, a probe separation device supported by the frame at a location below the probe holding clamp and pivotable relative to the frame about a separation device axis parallel to the frame axis, and a sample holding clamp supported by the frame at a location below the separation device, and in which the funnel is mounted to be vertically movable relative to the frame, and the apparatus further includes a support device connected between the sample holding clamp and the frame and supporting the sample holding clamp for pivotal movement relative to the frame about a sample holding clamp axis parallel to the frame axis.
摘要:
A burden distribution monitoring apparatus, according to the present invention, includes a hollow cylindrical sonde having an inner end radially movable within the internal space of a furnace, such as a shaft furnace. The sonde carries a burden layer depth sensor and/or a burden grain distribution sensor for radially shifting working ends of the sensors. With the foregoing construction, burden depth and/or grading of the burden can be monitored in a plurality of radial points in the furnace.
