Abstract
On the basis of blast furnace operation data of PJSC "MK "Azovstal", an information system has been developed, which is based on mathematical models of material and heat balances of blast furnace smelting developed at the Institute of Ferrous Metallurgy of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The calculation of the material balance is carried out according to the "accounting system" of V. P. Izhevskii. The thermal energy model of I. D. Semikin is used to calculate the heat balance, which was developed for use in blast furnace production by O. V. Borodulin. The article describes the information system of calculating mathematical models. The information system allows you to calculate balances in automatic mode (collection of data from automatic control system of technological process (ACS TP) and calculation of material and heat balances for the selected period) and in manual mode (calculation of forecast periods to determine reserves for increasing the energy efficiency of blast furnace smelting). The models were adapted by calculating the material and heat balances of blast furnace melting and determining the inconsistencies. Monthly calculations of the material and heat balances of the blast furnaces were performed to adapt the models installed in the ACS TP of the blast furnace workshop of PJSC "MK "Azovstal". Inconsistencies in the overall material balances of the furnaces (the difference between the total input of materials into the furnace and smelting products) and by components (iron, carbon, etc.) were determined. It was established that when using the estimated amount of blast furnace dust at all blast furnaces of PJSC "MK "Azovstal", the amount of discrepancy between the arrival and consumption of materials lies within the credible range of error (<1,5%). Using the results of the calculation of heat balances, a comparison of the Inconsistencies of the blast furnaces was made (the ratio of the calculated indicators to the actual ones). Mathematical models of balances were implemented as part of the ACS TP of the blast furnace workshop of PJSC "MK "Azovstal" and were used to assess deviations from production norms, consumption of coke and conventional fuel, as well as forecast the possibility of improving the technical and economic indicators of smelting.
