The rheological behavior of powdered charge materials during cold uniaxial pressing

The kinetics of compaction of two widespread charge mixtures, namely, Ti-B and Ti-C-Ni, is investigated. These mixtures are used in definite ratios to obtain synthetic hard-alloy tool materials. Based on the experimental results, the rheological properties of the mentioned powdered systems are determined.     

Effect of the charge composition on the nitrogen content in a metal during steelmaking in an ASF using a solid charge

The behavior of nitrogen is studied during steelmaking in a 120-t arc furnace using a solid metal charge. The nitrogen content in steel is shown to be decreased when the fraction of a light metal scrap in a charge increases and the fraction of a heavy metal scrap decreases.

Problems of dephosphorization during steelmaking

The thermodynamics of tapping, dephosphorization, and out-of-furnace treatment of steel in a ladle and the related phosphorus balance are considered, and the main technological and thermodynamic parameters for decreasing the metal dephosphorization are found.

Evaporation of iron during steelmaking in arc furnaces

The problems of iron evaporation during steelmaking in an arc steel-melting furnace are considered. A procedure is developed for the calculation of the specific iron evaporation rate and the heat losses during evaporation. More complete absorption of the heat of condensation by a charge and the oxidation of iron vapors are shown to be promoted by the following factors: the presence of a slag coating, a decrease in the well diameter, an increase in the well depth, an increase in the electrode failure diameter, and directional supply of an oxidizer to the near-electrode zone.
