Mineralogy of Iron Ores of Different Alumina Levels from Singhbhum Belt and Their Implication on Sintering Process

To increase the life of the mines, ores of lower quality are blended with the higher quality ores. In general, the blending of ores at mines site is controlled by the chemical composition of the ores by controlling the Al2O3 and SiO2 levels on the lowest side possible. However, if there is a change in mineralogy, like an increase in hydrous phase the composition may still be the same, but this difference may affect the sinterability and sinter quality. The mineralogical investigation of iron ores and their chemistry are required to avoid the increase in deleterious elements during sintering. By the know-how of the behavior of individual iron ores in terms of their sinterability, in advance, the quality of the iron ores blend can be optimized to produce quality sinter and productivity. Characterisation studies conducted on iron ores of Singhbhum Orissa belt revealed that hematite, goethite, clay, gibbsite and quartz occur in all the iron ore samples but in variable proportions. Traces of alumina, present as solid solution in the iron oxide minerals, has also contributed Al2O3 to the ores.

微合金化和余热处理热轧带肋钢筋高低周疲劳性能对比研究

通过试验研究,对比分析了微合金化和余热处理带肋钢筋的高周疲劳和低周疲劳性能。研究表明,微合金化钢筋比余热处理钢筋具有更好的疲劳性能。在微合金化和余热处理带肋钢筋的高低周疲劳试验中,观察到在横肋根部裂纹萌生并沿该区域扩展。有限元模拟结果显示在横肋根部出现应力集中,应力三轴度变大。模拟过程中也发现在横肋根部拉应变累积。有限元模拟结果有助于解释试验观察结果,即疲劳裂纹沿热轧带肋钢筋的横肋根部萌生及扩展。
