Page 14: Report

2b. FURNACE EQUIPMENTS The burning of gas, oil, coal, or other combustible material requires air. Insufficient air volume will result in wasted fuel. Too much air increases the amount of heat carried up the stack by the excess draft. Either extreme increases the cost and difficulty of controlling exhaust emissions.

NATURAL AND MECHANICAL DRAFT:

Air can be supplied to the combustion process by Natural or Mechanical draft Natural draft simply refers to the use of a chimney or stack to induce an upward flow of air. The stack effect pulls air into the combustion chamber. The amount of air flow depends on the stack’s height and diameter, the prevailing wind velocity, and the resistance of the burner mechanism or fuel bed itself. The demand for air-cleaning apparatus on combustion systems, particularly oil and coal, has increased the overall system resistance to such an extent that natural draft alone is seldom sufficient. Mechanical draft is accomplished in one of two ways: when air is blown or forced into the combustion chamber it is known as forced draft. When the air is drawn through the combustion chamber it is called induced draft. Balanced-draft is when both forced and induced drafts are used; the system is termed a balanced-draft system. The fans or blowers used for induced-draft applications are larger and more expensive than those used for similar forced-draft applications. The combustion process itself creates gases and elevated temperatures that expand the exhaust airstream, requiring fans with greater volumetric capacity than would be required on the supply side of the combustion process to supply clean, ambient air. Also, the hot exhaust serves to lower the density of the airstream, so density corrections must be applied to the fan static pressure (SP) to overcome the actual system resistance. The fact that the exhaust or flue gases are hot often requires induced-draft fans to be of a construction suitable for higher temperatures.

COMBUSTION BLOWER:

Air Flow = 17000 m3/hr Air Temperature = 30 ‘C Motor = 90KW, 2 poles USED FOR: Supply Fumes & Vapors

WORKING:

As the rotor rotates; the air entrapped between the rotor blades is radially and

circumferentially accelerated and pushed in to the side cavity. Here it is pressurized and

pushed back to the rotor blades where it is again radially and circumferentially

Page 15: Report

accelerated. It will then push along a special path through the Impeller and side channel till

it is discharged into the discharge port. Thus leaving the blade tip, the air flow around the

housing contours back down to the root of the succeeding the blade where the flow pattern

is repeated. The Impeller rotates with absolutely no contact between it and the casing. This

means that no lubrication is required; guaranteeing 100% oil free operation. Since there is

only one moving part it has got maximum operating reliability and totally maintenance free.

INDUCED DRAFT FANS (I.D FAN):

Air Flow = 7700 m3/hr Air Temperature = 30 ‘C Motor = 30KW, 2 poles USED FOR: Remove Flues Gasses from Furnace and Discharges it to Outside

WORKING:

Induced Draft (ID) fans are used to create a vacuum or negative air pressure in a system or stack. Our centrifugal blowers are used to maintain elevated ventilation, resulting in increased system efficiency. In the boiler industry ID Fans are often used in conjunction with FD fans to maintain system pressure which is slightly lower than ambient.

HYDRAULIC PUSHERS AND EJECTORS:

These pushers are generally used to push raw ingot into furnace, while the ejectors are used to eject heated billets out of the furnace. These kinds of products are generally installed in the backside of the furnace in rolling mills.

PUSHERS/EJECTORS DETAIL:

Hydraulic Cylinders = 2 Push Force = 100 tons -150 tons Working pressure: 31.5MPa Oil = Hydrol VG 32

CHARGING GRIT:

It is use to transfer stock billets to recuperative chamber of furnace. Working principle involves the movement of counter weights, counter weight moves by the force of 2 hydraulic cylinders. Magnetic crane charge billets from stock pile to charging grit

3. MILLING ZONE

INTRODUCTION:

Milling zone consists of rollers that define the size of the bars. In Amreli steel, there are total

18 rollers in milling zone.

3a. MILLING AREAS: Milling zone is divided into three different areas:

Roughing area

Intermediate area

Finishing area

Thermo Mechanical Treatment Area

ROUGHING AREA:

Roughing area is characterized by RM-28. It consists of three rollers. It has a lifting table for lifting the billets. It also contains drop wall for dropping the billet. It has five passes, each pass removes (22-25) % area of billet.

INTERMEDIATE AREA:

It is designated by I-1, I-2 and I-3. Each of these contains two rollers which reduce the area of billet and increases the

length. After I-3, the billet`s both ends are cut by shearing machine.

FINISHING AREA:

It is designated as C-1, C-2….C-10. Number of rollers can be adjusted according to the size of resulting bar. The both ends of the bar are cut down after C-4 roller.

THERMO MECHANICAL TREATMENT AREA:

It is rapid cooling of a work piece to obtain certain mechanical properties. It consists of five different inlet and outlet passages for different sizes of bar. It has five normal pressure nozzles and three back pressure nozzles.

4. THERMO MECHANICAL TREATMENT

In TMT chamber, the hot deformed billet introduced through roller guide. It has five lines for

passing of billet. The selection of lines depends on the final size of the product.

4a. MECHANISM: Five nozzles continuously supply water to get the martensitic structure on the case by

quenching process, While the inner core remain soft because of the formation of pearlitic

structure by self-tempering phenomenon. 3 nozzles are supplying water in counter flow to

remove water from the bar at the end. Time of the travel of the bar should be fast to avoid

the formation of martensite to large depth.

Water used in quenching is recycled and transferred back to cooling tower; some amount of

water is evaporated during quenching which is fed using overhead tank to maintain the

desired level of water.

4b. ADVANTAGES: Major purpose of thermomechanical treatment of steel

Higher yield strength Improved toughness Improved weldability Higher resistance to brittle cleavage Higher resistance to low-energy ductile fractures Good cold forming, particularly by bending Lower costs which are possible by using hot-rolled rather than heat treated sections.

Achieving desired properties with fewer amounts of alloying elements thereby reducing the production cost.
