In this work, the computational particle fluid dynamics (CPFD) method is used to simulate the high-pressure visual fluidized bed experimental equipment independently designed and developed by the experimentation of the fluidized reduction process of iron ore powder. A numerical model for reducing iron ore fines in a three-dimensional fluidized bed is established, and the model is verified by combining numerical simulation and experimental testing. Moreover, the influences of different reducing factors on the reduction effect in the process of the fluidized reduction of iron ore fines are simulated in detail. Via the CPFD simulation of the fluidized reduction of iron ore fines, the optimal reduction pressure is found to be 0.2 MPa, and the optimal reducing gas is found to be H2. Moreover, the optimal gas velocity is 0.6 m/s, and the optimal reduction temperature is 923 K. This conclusion is consistent with the experimental measurements, so the simulation results can be used to verify the reliability of the optimal operating conditions. |
