    Determining the Thermally-Stressed State of Motor-Driven Bowls for Transporting Liquid Slag
    (РС ТЕСHNOLOGY СЕNTЕR, Kharkiv, 2024) Povorotnii, Viktor V.; Shcherbyna, Iryna V.; Zdanevych, Serhiі V.; Diachenko, Nina K.; Kimstach, Tetiana V.; Solonenko, Lyudmila I.; Usenko, Ruslan V.
    ENG: Slag bowls were chosen as the object of research, as important components of blast furnace, steelmaking, and ferroalloy shops of metallurgical enterprises. The main problem of operation of any slag trucks is their limited durability and frequent destruction of slag bowls. The reason for these problems is changes in the shape of the bowls during operation, manifested in the formation of narrowing places in the area of the support ring – for rail-mounted bowls, destruction of supporting pins – for rail-mounted slag trucks, or cracks in the walls. Those defects appear as a result of cyclic thermal effects of liquid slag on the bowl. Based on the results of computer simulation, it was established that the main role in the destruction of the support pins of motor-driven slag bowls belongs to temperature changes. The temperature stresses arising in the bowl are localized in the area of the slag mirror (200–250 MPa for 25L steel, 280–350 MPa for 30HML steel). The results provide grounds for improving the presented slag bowl to reduce temperature stresses in its walls and structures of the supporting trunnions. The results reported here are explained by the fact that with uneven heating of elastic bodies, temperature stresses appear, which, under certain configurations of temperature loads, lead to the destruction of structures. The findings from these studies are recommended to be used at enterprises for the design and manufacture of slag bowls, as information on the localization of dangerous places of the structure. In addition, the data presented here could be useful for metallurgical enterprises for detailed technical diagnosis of bowls in their dangerous places.

    Kinetics of Quartz Sand and Its Mixtures Drying by Microwave Radiation
    (Dnipro University of Technology, 2021) Solonenko, Lyudmila I.; Repiakh, Serhii I.; Uzlov, Kostiantyn I.; Mamuzich, I.; Kimstach, Tetiana V.; Bilyi, Oleksandr P.
    ENG: Purpose. Kinetics research and description of drying by microwave radiation mechanism development of quartz sand and its mixes with sodium silicate in limited quantity of water steam medium. Methodology. Distilled water, sodium silicate solute and quartz sand have been used in this research. Study has been performed on sand samples weighing 200 g. Mixtures drying and structuring have been performed by microwave radiation with power of 700W with frequency of 2.45 GHz in air and in saturated water weighing 1 g steam medium. Accuracy of temperature measurement is 1, mass is 0.02 g. Realized in this investigation drying kinetics has been specified as specimen weight change dependence and moisture evaporation from this mixture rate vs. drying duration. Dependencies have been built on the results of video recording and corresponding chrono-gravimetric measurements data digitalization. Mixtures during heating by microwave radiation temperature changes registration has been performed with an interval of 1560 s. Samples average heating rate has been estimated by calculation based on results in their temperature change determination during first 2 minutes of heating with microwave radiation. Findings. For the first time, microwave drying kinetics of quartz sand and its mixtures with sodium silicate in limited water medium (structured by SMS-process) has been studied. For the first time, based on SMS-process material balance, analytical dependence has been developed. This dependence application allows sand-sodium-silicate mixture structured by SMS-process maximum mass to calculate when using sodium silicate solute (silicate module 2.83.0) for quartz sand cladding and 1 g of saturated water steam for mixture structuring. It has been established that when mixtures structuring according to SMS-process water extraction from them takes place in three stages at ~100, 100108 and at 125138. Maximum appropriate heating temperature of sand-sodium-silicate mixture during structuring by SMS-process has been recommended as ~125. Exceeding of specified temperature leads to hydrated water from mixture releasing in steam form and its condensation on colder working surface of model-rod rigging. Resulting condensate leads to mixture restructuring in contact with equipment places and, accordingly, sharp quality deterioration in prepared molds and rods. For manufactured molds and rods quality stabilization, it has been recommended to pre-dry the quartz sand cladded with sodium silicate solute in microwave field for at least 3 minutes before structuring according to SMS-process. Originality. For the first time, data on drying kinetics has been obtained and quartz sand and its mixtures with sodium silicate in limited water steam medium microwave drying mechanism description has been developed. Influence of number of SMS-process basic parameters on structured quartz sand weight regularities has been established. Practical value. Research results will be useful in terms of ideas expanding about the processes that accompany granular materials drying, as well as in technologies and equipment for drying and structuring fine-grained dielectric materials and their mixtures development, creating new capillary-porous media, etc. under microwave radiation influence.

    Technogenic Hazards Coefficient of Sand-Resin Mixtures in Foundry Manufacturing
    (Dnipro University of Technology, Dnipro, Ukraine, 2024) Solonenko, Lyudmila I.; Uzlov, Kostiantyn I.; Repiakh, Serhii I.; Prokopovich, I. V.; Bilyi, Oleksandr P.
    ENG: Purpose. To carry out a comparative quantitative assessment of environmental and sanitary-hygienic hazards of utilizing synthetic resins for manufacturing molds and rods in foundry production. Methodology. Quarry quartz sand brand 1K2O202, furan resin brand Permaset 839 and catalyst Permacat 128, aluminum alloy AL2, gray cast iron SCh200, carbon steel 30L, bronze BrА9Zh3L were used in the work. Chromel-alumel thermocouples completed with electronic potentiometer were used for thermography. Molds were made from quartz sand, furan resin and catalyst mixture. Casting mold heating depth determination from casting to temperatures above 400 °C was carried out by its thermogram graphical processing, which was obtained after casting mold pouring with aluminum alloy, bronze, gray cast iron and carbon steel. Findings. Among those studied, the most dangerous are urea-phenol-formaldehyde, urea-formaldehyde and urea-furan resins, and the least dangerous are phenol-formaldehyde and phenol-formaldehyde-furan resins. Ecological and sanitary-hygienic hazard level when using resin mixtures increases with increasing resin amount in mixture, castings walls thickness, their surface area, as well as with increasing temperature of melt poured into the mold. Originality. For the first time, in relation to foundry molds and rods in foundry production manufacturing, technogenic hazard coefficient (THC) has been developed and its value has been calculated. This, in fact, is air volume (m3) containing maximum permissible concentration of carcinogenic or poisonous substances released as a result of mold organic binder material destruction when pouring aluminum alloy, bronze, cast iron or steel. Practical value. The use of the research results makes it possible to increase the level of predicting accuracy of technogenic (sanitary, hygienic and environmental) hazards, accuracy level of calculating ventilation systems capacities in foundries, taking into account the serial castings production, castings structural features, as well as binding materials nature for foundry molds and rods for such castings.
