MATERIAL BALANCE MODEL FOR STEEL PRODUCTION IN ELECTRIC ARC FURNACE - OXIDATION PERIOD

Abstract

The oxidation period represents the middle stage of the calculation model concerning the production of bearing steel. The creation of this steel can take place in a high temperature furnace. This modelling is done using the knowledge that metallurgical practice gives us and the formulated dependences in the melting period model, published earlier in the journal. The data for slag, metal and gas phases, as well as the material balance of the period, at the end of the development, were calculated using the dependencies in this model.
