Kinetics of scrap melting in liquid steel
Abstract
The melting rate of steel bars with various sizes, shapes, and initial temperatures in a 70 kg liquid steel bath (1650 °C) was measured to investigate the kinetics involved in steel scrap melting. Our measurements revealed that a solidified shell was formed around the original bar immediately after it was immersed into the liquid steel. This shell and an associated interfacial gap generated between it and the original bar were found to be …
