By using the presented model, the effect of particle moisture content on particle temperature, sulfur oxidation, and combustion heat generation has been evaluated. The mineralogical composition of the commonly used concentrate at Khatoonabad flash smelting furnace has been used in this study. It was found that the particle moisture content is removed in the sub-second time range and thus the moisture has marginal impact on the variation of particle temperature and on the reaction rate when the gas temperature is assumed to be constant in the reaction shaft. When a concentrate with high moisture content is charged, the particle size enlargement due to the agglomeration of concentrate particles causes an abrupt fall in the particle reaction rate.展开更多

Then, the CFCS thermodynamic model was proposed by establishing the multi-phase equilibrium model of FMSP and the local-equilibrium model of CCCP, respectively, and by combining them through the smelting intermediates. Subsequently, the influences of the furnace structures were investigated using the model on the formation of blister copper, the Fe3O4 behavior, the copper loss in slag and the copper recovery rate. The results show that the type D furnace, with double flues and a slag partition wall, is an ideal CFCS reactor compared with the other three types furnaces. For CFCS, it is effective to design a partition wall in the furnace to make FMSP and CCCP perform in two relatively independent zones, respectively, and to make smelting gas and converting gas discharge from respective flues.展开更多

In the simulation, the equations governing the gas flow are solvednumerically by Eular method. The particle phase is introduced into the gas flow by theparti-cle-source-in-cell technique (PSIC). Predictions including the fluid flow field, temperaturefield, concentration field of gas phase and the tracks of particles have been obtained by thenumerical simulation. The visualized results show that the reaction of sulfide particles is almostcompleted in the upper zone of the shaft within 1.5 m far from the central jet distributor (CJD)type concentrate burner. The simulation results are in good agreement with data obtained from aseries of experiments and tests in the plant and the error is less than 2%.展开更多

The core of this virtual simulation system is anumerical simulation of CFD (computational fluid dynamics), and this system incorporates couplingmomentum transport, heat transport, mass transport, reaction kinetics between gas and particles andchemical reactions between gas and gas. A set of numerical predicted data were obtained. The CFDsimulation shows that there is a sensitive zone of the distributing blast speed, and the dustcontent ascends when the speed exceeds 180 m centre dot s^(-1). Increasing the oxygen concentrationof processing air benefits the efficient production of the flash smelting furnace.展开更多
