Modelling of Coke Layer Collapse during Ore Charging in Ironmaking Blast Furnace by DEM

A technical issue in an ironmaking blast furnace operation is to realize the optimum layer thickness and the radial distribution of burden (ore and coke) to enhance its efficiency and productivity. When ore particles are charged onto the already-embedded coke layer, the coke layer-collapse phenomeno...
