Abstract

Dora E Ledesma-Carrión

The aim of this work is to create a representative mathematical model of the process of steelmaking for the quantities of raw materials and energy consumption optimal for producing a ton of steel of the specific composition. The specific steel is grade 1010. The reaction enthalpies are critical in the conceptualization and the percentages of carbon and iron in the steelmaking process. There should be a maximum of FeO in slag and a bounded particle C. chemical reactions electric arc furnace enthalpies linear programming steel-making.
