Analysis of the static pressure difference of blast-furnace gases on the basis of the Clapeyron–Mendeleev equation

Abstract

The static pressure difference of the gas flux in the blast furnace is determined by varying three factors: the temperature difference, the number of molecules within the gas volume, and the gas velocity. The temperature difference is the dominant factor. The best gas-dynamic model of the blast-furnace process is based on the Clapeyron–Mendeleev equation.
