upper belly area and <strong>the</strong> installation <strong>of</strong> so called hot <strong>gas</strong> generators (HGG) for <strong>the</strong><br />

production and <strong>injection</strong> <strong>of</strong> hot reducing <strong>gas</strong>.<br />

2. BF-Process with <strong>injection</strong> <strong>of</strong> hot reducing <strong>gas</strong><br />

Several <strong>the</strong>oretical and operational stages were carried out for <strong>the</strong> modification <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> BF-process. The procedure <strong>of</strong> investigation is listed as follows.<br />

� definition <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> required consumption <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> reducing <strong>gas</strong> (equilibrium<br />

calculations)<br />

� CFD calculation for determination <strong>of</strong> expectable penetration depth <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

reducing <strong>gas</strong> <strong>into</strong> <strong>the</strong> BF-shaft<br />

� energy and mass balance calculations for BF operation with <strong>injection</strong> <strong>of</strong> hot<br />

reducing <strong>gas</strong><br />

� technical development <strong>of</strong> HGG<br />

� implementation and commissioning <strong>of</strong> HGG at BF 1<br />

� operational trials at BF 1 with <strong>injection</strong> <strong>of</strong> hot reducing <strong>gas</strong><br />

� optimisation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>injection</strong> <strong>of</strong> hot reducing <strong>gas</strong> <strong>into</strong> <strong>the</strong> BF shaft<br />

The <strong>injection</strong> <strong>of</strong> hot reducing <strong>gas</strong> was carried out at BF 1 (Arcelor<br />

Eisenhüttenstadt) (figure 1) with a av. production <strong>of</strong> about 1,600 tHM/d.<br />
