CONVERTER OXYGEN BLOWING METHOD AND UPWARD BLOWING LANCE FOR CONVERTER OXYGEN BLOWING

摘要

A method for blowing oxygen in a converter uses a top-blown lance having a Laval nozzle installed on its tip. The Laval nozzle has a back pressure of the nozzle Po(kPa) satisfying a formula, Po=Fhs/(0.00465.Dt2), with respect to a oxygen-flow-rate Fhs(Nm3/hr) per hole of the Laval nozzle determined from the oxygen-flow-rate Fs(Nm3/hr) in . a high carbon region in a peak of decarburization and a throat diameter Dt(mm) . An exit diameter De of the Laval nozzle satisfies the following formula with respect to the back pressure of the nozzle Po(kPa), an ambient pressure Pe(kPa), and the throat diameter Dt(mm).
