Based on historical documents and field survey, the wood bellow of No.3 iron smelting furnace in Liao Dynasty was reconstructed at Shuiquangou, Yanqing in Beijing. Its ultimate wind pressure and the speed were estimated. The ventilate ability for its portion was calculated respectively. Furthermore, the flow field in the furnace blasted with the wood bellow was simulated with software FLUENT. The effect on the iron smelting techniques for single-tuyere blast furnace with this blast ability of the bellow was discussed.
