Generally, rate-parameters of an agglomerate is used for several BF analysis. But, sinter has a different porosity in a different particle size. In radius direction of a blast furnace top, sinter particle size is different by burden distribution control. And also, sinter particle size changes by reduction degradation in a low temperature region of BF. In the high temperature region over 1100○C, porosity of sinter decreases by melt formation inside of sinter. It is needed to consider the change of particle size and porosity by above phenomena in the BF analysis <br />Here, Multi-Stage Zone Reaction model (MSZR) is used for analyzing the reduction of agglomerates. How to evaluate the rate-parameters is considered and the influence of agglomerate quality is analyzed.
