Properties of Temperature Difference Self-power Adjusting Valve Used in Blast Furnace

Blast furnace campaign life has a great effect on technical and economical indexes of ironmaking production. Cooling condition and life-span of cooling apparatus have a great influence on campaign life of blast furnace. Owing to constant flux water supply used for blast furnace cooling at present, cooling intensity doesn't meet the demand of heat load in peak value, concurrently, cooling water supply lacks equilibrium and stability, which will cause burnout of cooling apparatus and diminution of blast furnace campaign life.

The flux in different temperature is measured.

Experiment of the Influence of Manganese Oxide on the Prosperities of High Alumina Content BF Slag

Alumina content in Nanjing Steel blast furnace slag is up to 19%, which results in worse slag fluidity, higher furnace operating temperature and higher silicon content of hot metal. Therefore blast furnace strengthening is reduced.
