Abstract

A new bell-less top was installed at Chiba No.6 blast furnace in 1998 for advanced burden distribution control. Reduced scale model experiments were used to develop the rotating chute with stabilizer and the reverse-forward tilting function. Furthermore, an accurate simulator for burden distribution was developed. The results obtained allowed to implement an operational trial of reverse tilting charging. Burden profile and gas distribution could be controlled satisfactorily with this method.
