Abstract:
An expert model has been developed for BOF steelmaking process. The model includes static model and dynamic model working together. The static model is based upon various balances including heat, slag, iron and oxygen balance. The model predicts the weight and end point temperature of steel, oxygen to be blown and fluxes to be added. The dynamic model focuses on Decarburisation reaction fundamentally also as well as in association with waste gas data. This model is validated with the help of industrial shop floor data in order to use it for correct predictions. The expert model can be effectively used for simulating the process and can be used as a guiding tool to operate the process in desired manner and help to produce steel with desired end point composition and temperature.
