Mathematical Model of Melting of Solid Sulfur Particles when Loaded into a Melting Bath

Article Preview

Abstract:

The study solved the problem of determining the technological mode of operation of the device for loading solid lumpy and granulated sulfur into a melting bath with molten liquid sulfur. For this it is necessary to solve two main problems: to determine the method of loading solid sulfur into the melt, to calculate the main design and technological parameters to ensure the required performance of the smelting bath. As a result of experimental studies, the mode of operation of the loading device was obtained, during which the partial melting of the surface of sulfur particles in the surface layer of the melt occurred. This led to the adhesion of particles to each other, the formation of conglomerates having a size that is much larger compared with that of particles of the initial particle size distribution. As a result of this phenomenon, the melting rate and the melting bath were significantly reduced, filled with a solid phase. As a result of the study, a model was developed and the problem of calculating the limiting modes of the loading device operation was solved for preventing solid particles from sticking together.
