The use of a combined scheme of mathematical modeling for the continuous heating furnace of metallurgical production

Abstract

In this paper, it is proposed to put the finite volume method into the basis of a mathematical model of a heating furnace. The finite volume method is used in modern computer programs for calculating gas-dynamic flows. It is advisable to use a combined scheme when building a mathematical model in accordance with the results of data analysis of the continuous heating furnace of the metallurgical rolling production and its disadvantages. The novelty lies in the fact that for the first time it is proposed to use a finite volume method with a combined difference scheme for the heating zones of a continuous furnace of a metallurgical rolling manufacture for calculating a furnace. Such calculation algorithms make it possible to give recommendations on reducing heat losses in a furnace. Mathematical model building can lead to a significant reduction in fuel consumption and an increase in economic efficiency when using heating continuous furnaces of metallurgical rolling production.
