Heat transfer modeling during production of directly reduced iron (DRI) pellets by simulating tunnel kiln condition
2018
Recently CSIR-NML has developed a process for production of Directly Reduced Iron (DRI) utilizing lean grade raw material in Tunnel Kiln. It was observed that
the heat transfer across the bed of crucible plays a vital role to ensure the uniform
metallization throughout the bed of crucible. Therefore, an attempt has been made in the
present investigation to develop a mathematical model to predict the thermal profile
across the cross section of the bed of crucible using Finite Volume Method (FVM) during
production of DRI by simulating tunnel kiln conditions. The developed model was
validated with experimentally obtained results. The mathematical model so developed
can be extended to a commercial tunnel kiln process for prediction of thermal profile
across the bed of crucible as well as kiln during production of DRI.
