Abstract

For the development of a kinetic model of the reactions occurring during refining processes, the MPS method that can easily calculate the large deformations in free surfaces and interfaces was used as a simulation tool for a high temperature fluid flow. A two-dimensional simulation of the impingement of a liquid jet on a liquid bath was performed for a slag-metal system, and the interfacial area between a slag and a metal was estimated. The possibilities and problems encountered in the application of the MPS method to the simulation of practical steelmaking processes are discussed.
