  1. 1. Growth and Removal of Inclusions During Ladle Stirring

    Author : Mats Söder; KTH; []
    Keywords : inclusions; ladle; gas-stirring; induction-stirring; secondary refining; bubble flotation;

    Abstract : The growth and removal of inclusions in stirred ladles hasbeen studied. First, the importance of different growthmechanisms suggested in the literature were studied. Simulationresults from a fundamental model of an induction-stirred ladlehave been used as input in the calculations. READ MORE

  2. 2. Formation of oxide-inclusions by ladle glaze and a preliminary examination on the possibility of inclusion seperation by bubble floatation

    Author : Nagendra Tripathi; KTH; []
    Keywords : oxide inclusions; ladle metallurgy; ladle glaze; inclusion population; ladle age;

    Abstract : The present work was to study the role of ladle glaze as apotential supplier of inclusions to the steel melt during theladle refining process. In this study, the total number ofinclusions at the beginning and at the end of the ladletreatment process was found to be increasing with ladle age,which is the number of heats, the ladle being used.

  3. 3. A Study on the Correlation between Ladle Glaze and Non-Metallic Inclusions in the Ladle Treatment

    Author : Minho Song; Du Sichen; Jerome P. Downey; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; non-metallic inclusions; ladle treatment; ladle glaze; tracer; tool steel; viscosity; activity; modelling; Al2O3-CaO-MgO-SiO2 system; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : In the present thesis, the correlation between ladle glaze and non-metallic inclusions in the ladle treatment was studied. A number of industrial trials with full scale ladle and laboratory works were performed to investigate the inclusions in the ladle treatment. READ MORE

  4. 4. Thermodynamic Studies of the Fe-Pt System and “FeO”-Containing Slags for Application Towards Ladle Refining

    Author : Patrik Fredriksson; KTH; []
    Keywords : Thermodynamics; Activity; Galvanic cell; Calorimetry; Gas equilibration technique; Iron-platinum alloys; FeO; Slags; Modelling; Ladle;

    Abstract : In the present work, the thermodynamic activites of ironoxide, denoted as "FeO" in the slag systems Al2O3-"FeO", CaO-"FeO", "FeO"-SiO2, Al2O3-"FeO"-SiO2, CaO-"FeO"-SiO2and "FeO"-MgO-SiO2were investigated by employing the gasequilibration technique at steelmaking temperatures. Thestrategy was to expose the molten slag mixtures kept inplatinum crucibles for an oxygen potential, determined by aCO/CO2-ratio. READ MORE

  5. 5. Growth and removal of inclusions during ladle refining

    Author : Mats Söder; Pär Jönsson; Hae-Geon Lee; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Meteorology; inclusions; steel; ladle; cluster growth; modelling; Meteorologi; Meteorology; Meteorologi;

    Abstract : The overall purpose of this thesis work has been to further our understanding of the growth and removal of inclusions in gas- and induction-stirred ladles. The primary focus has been on alumina inclusions.Growth mechanisms were studied using data from fundamental mathematical models of gas- and induction-stirred ladles. READ MORE
