Simulation on the Burden Distribution by DEM

Abstract:

In this paper, a numerical simulation model based on discrete element method (DEM) has been developed to analyze the burden distribution in the Melter gasifier of COREX process. The burden trajectory, the location and the burden surface profile are analyzed in the top charging of melter gasifier. The distribution of ore and coke and the porosity in the radial direction are given under the different charging mode. The results can be used to optimize the charging patterns in order to obtain the reasonable gas distribution.
