Results of the Application of the Mdn in the Improvement of the Design of an Electrical Furnace that produces Low Carbon Ferromanganese

摘要

Improvements developed in an electric furnace design for the production of refined ferromanganese (low carbon ferromanganese), using the Nodal Wear Model (NWM), are detailed in this paper.rnLikewise, the NWM can be used as an instrument which is able to simulate situations that have not yet been carried out on industrial scale and to predict, for example, the performance of the electric furnace lining, under operational conditions that could form a cold wall/bottom.rnFinally, the NWM has been applied to simulate and predict (refractory repair consumption) the operations of patching or hot repair during the furnace campaign.
