Numerical modeling of the thermal performance of regenerative slab reheat furnaces

Journal Article Zhang, C ; Ishii, T ; Sugiyama, S - Numerical Heat Transfer. Part A, Applications

Fuel consumption in reheat furnaces represents a significant percentage of the total processing cost. The competitiveness of the steel industry demands more efficient use of available fuel resources. Thus it has become more important to have enhanced furnace design tools. Here, numerical simulations of reactive turbulent flows and heat transfer in regenerative slab reheat furnaces have been carried out. A moment closure method with the assumed {beta} probability density function for the mixture fraction is used to model the turbulent nonpremixed combustion process in the furnaces. The combustion model is based on the assumption of instantaneous full chemical equilibrium. Themore »« less

Temperature control of a continuous, push-type, five-zone, slab-reheating furnace for minimum-fuel usage. Volume I. Text and Appendix A

Technical Report Purdy, D J ; Williams, T J

Investigations are made of temperature control for a continuous, five zone, pusher type, reheat furnace used to heat slabs from the slabbing mill up to the rolling temperature needed for the hot strip mill. Minimum fuel rates needed to achieve required outlet temperature as a function of production rate are determined. A scheme is presented for carrying out the transition from one steady state operating level to another with a near minimium of fuel usage. A method for using this transition scheme on a process control computer is also presented. A specific objective of this thesis is to suggest amore »« less

Technical Report Purdy, D J ; Williams, T J

This report treats the reheat furnace used to heat slabs from the slabbing mill up to the rolling temperature for the hot strip mill. It determines the minimum fuel rates needed to achieve required outlet temperatures as a function of production rate. It also presents a scheme carrying out the transition from one steady state operating level to another with a near minimum of fuel usage. A method for using this transition scheme on a process control computer is also presented here.
