Popis: Interaction of the upper oxygen jets with the BOF bath considerably effects the hot metal refining flow. To optimize the lances designs and methods of BOF bath blowing, information is needed on the actual physical and technical phenomena taking place during top blowing of BOF bath by groups of ultrasonic and sonic oxygen jets. It was shown that obtaining the information is possible at high temperature simulation of the BOF bath blowing by application oxygen lances of various designs and video registration. Results of previous studies by filming of the blowing in a BOF and OHF presented. Description of modern facilities of high temperature simulation within a multi-purpose 160 and 60‒80 kg BOFs, equipped by special manholes for observation and registration by video camera the physicochemical processes taking place on the surface of the bath presented. In particular the manholes made it possible to observe the processes taking place at various methods of top and combined blowing of the BOF bath by application regular, two-circuit and double-flow oxygen lances. A methodology of test heats carrying out presented, which ensured obtaining important practical information on forming and variation of dimensions of the reaction zone. In particular, information was obtained about the interaction of ultrasonic and sonic oxygen jets with the metal melt, development of afterburning, emission out of reaction zone C to CO2 in the subsonic and sonic oxygen jets with forming high temperature flares directed on the BOF bath surface or penetrated in the foamed slag, emissions of slag-metal suspension out the BOF, forming of metal-slag sculls on the lance tube during the blowing with various level of foamed slag-metal emulsion.
