A ladle furnace operates with a highly reducing slag provided the slag carry over is properly controlled; however, this seldom occurs. In addition, argon injection is also employed to increase mass transfer and thus, the removal of impurities from the molten steel.
The temperature control of molten steel is crucial in ladle furnace (LF) refining. In this paper, the factors influencing endpoint temperature were obtained by analyzing the LF refining process, and high-quality data sets were obtained by combining data cleaning and processing. Then, a black box model based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) and long …

A general construction of a typical ladle of 3.2 m height and 3.5 m diameter is shown in Fig.2.1 [8] Fig.2.1. Constructional details of a typical ladle [8] The ladle structure is multilayered because of the fact that a ladle should be strong and heat insulated. The inner face of the ladle is built from specialized refractory bricks.
The ladle furnace (LF) is widely used in the secondary steelmaking process in particular for the de-sulfurization, alloying, and reheating of liquid steel prior to the casting process.
