Using Thermodynamics and Microstructure to Mitigate Overfitting in Pellet Reduction Models

steel research international, EarlyView.
A in time and space discretized, thermodynamically sound model for direct reduction of iron oxide pellets is described. The number of fitting parameters is drastically reduced compared to existing models. Nevertheless, fitting kinetic parameters based on conversion degree data alone leads to overfitting, which can be mitigated by correlating the ...

Oxide Scale Morphology of Carbon Steels Under Novel Reheating Conditions

steel research international, EarlyView.
This study focuses on the changes in oxide scale morphology formed under simulated hydrogen and oxy‐fuel reheating gas atmospheres in comparison to natural gas‐air reheating. Several different properties were analyzed, such as pore structure, ratios of iron oxides, adhesion, and distribution of alloying elements.
