A simplified model of plastic layer and internal gas pressure In a coke oven is presented. We calculate internal gas pressure using presented model. And results are compared with calculated results using experimental data. Results show the difference of internal gas pressure by coal composition. The model is used to show that the permeability at the resolidification end of the plastic layer is a key determinant of the magnitude of the internal gas pressure.

This paper proposes a swarm-based fuzzy system modeling technique for coke oven combustion control diagnosis. The coke plant produces coke for the blast furnace plant in steel making process by charging coal into oven and supplying gas to carbonize it. A conventional mathematical model for coke oven combustion control has been used to control the amount of gas input, but it does not work well because of highly nonlinear feature of coke plant. To solve this problem, swarm-based fuzzy system modeling technique is suggested to construct a diagnosis model of coke oven combustion control. Based on the measured input-output data pairs, the fuzzy rules are generated and the parameters are tuned by the PSO(Particle Swarm Optimizer) to increase the accuracy of the fuzzy system is operated. This system computes the proper amount of gas input taking the operation conditions of coke oven into account, and compares the computed result with the supplied gas input.

The steel industry accounts for about 5% of the total annual global energy consumption and more than 6% of the total anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions. Therefore, there is a need to increase energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions in these industries. The utilization of coke oven gas, a byproduct of the coke plant, is one of the main ways to achieve this goal. Coke oven gas used as a fuel in many steelmaking process is a hydrogen-rich gas with high energy potential, but it is commonly used as a heat source and is even released directly into the air after combustion reactions. In order to solve such resource waste and energy inefficiency, several alternatives have recently been proposed, such as separating and refining hydrogen directly from coke oven gas or converting it to syngas. Therefore, in this study, recent research trends on the separation and purification of hydrogen from coke oven gas and the production of syngas were introduced.

In this study, we examined through experimental study of the combustion conditions in order to optimize the 20,000kcal/hr class combustor being used in the commercial large gas oven. Through a consideration of the shape and the heat transfer area of the heat exchanger that is suitable for supplying heat quantity is designed and manufactured two heat exchangers were examined cooking chamber temperature change of the oven by the convection fan control method through advanced research.

Changes in moisture content and degrees of gelatinization during cooking of sweet potatoes by different cooking methods were studied. The samples were cooked by boiling, steaming, gas oven or microwave oven baking. Changes in the moisture content of sweet potato during cooking were +30.0% by boiling, +4.4% by steaming, -5.8% by gas oven baking, and -46.6% by microwave oven baking. The degrees of gelatinization of sweet potatoes were 83.8%, 75.7%, 73.0% and 67.7%, respectively.

Greenhouse gas emissions have a profound effect on global warming. Various environmental regulations have been introduced to reduce the emissions. The largest amount of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide, is produced in the steel industry. To decrease carbon dioxide emission, hydrogen-based iron oxide reduction, which can replace carbon-based reduction has received a great attention. Iron production generates various by-product gases, such as cokes oven gas (COG), blast furnace gas (BFG), and Linz-Donawitz gas (LDG). In particular, COG, due to its high concentrations of hydrogen and methane, can be reformed to become a major source of hydrogen for reducing iron oxide. Nevertheless, continuous COG cannot be supplied under actual operation condition of steel industry. To solve this problem, this study proposed to use two alternative COG-based fuel mixtures; one with natural gas and the other with biogas. Reforming study on two types of mixed gas were carried out to evaluate catalyst performance under a variety of operating conditions. In addition, methane conversion and product composition were investigated both theoretically and experimentally.

The changes in weight, reducing sugar content, sugar composition and enzyme activities (${\beta}$-amylase and invertase) of sweet potato were studied with three kinds of cooking methods, microwave oven, gas oven, and steaming. The weights of sweet potato cooked by microwave oven and gas oven were decreased with increasing cooking time, whereas that of steaming was increased with cooking time. Reducing sugar content of sweet potato cooked by microwave oven was increased till 40 seconds, but decreased thereafter. In the cooking methods using gas oven and steaming, reducing sugar content were increased with cooking time. And reducing sugar content were 334.60 mg/g and 381.29 mg/g, respectively at 100$^{\circ}C$ of cold point in sweet potato cooked by gas oven and steaming. Raw sweet potato consisted of fructose (1.56 mg/g), glucose (1.79 mg/g), sucrose (5.58 mg/g), and maltose (2.22 mg/g). The contents of fructose, glucose, and sucrose were decreased during cooking process. But maltose content was increased with cooking time. Especially, maltose contents were 24.81 mg/g and 28.10 mg/g at 100$^{\circ}C$ of cold point in sweet potato cooked by gas oven and steaming. The activities of ${\beta}$-amylase and invertase were decreased with cooking time. Microwave oven-cooked sweet potato did not show on invertase activity.

Coking process is the thermal decomposition of bituminous coal with final temperature of about $900^{\circ}C$ Because coke plays important roles in ironmaking process in a blast furnace it's essential for developing modeling of coke oven. In this study, An unsteady 2-dimesional model is proposed to simulate coking process in a coke oven. In this model, gas and solid phase are assumed homogeneous continnum and solid bed is assumed as porous media . The model contains governing equations for the solid phase and the gas phase. Complicated phenomena such as swelling, softening, resolidification and shrinkage are neglected and mass loss by drying and devolatilization is reflected by generation of internal pores. Drying, devolatilization, heat transfer and generation of internal pores are also reflected in source terms. Calulated results are compared with experimental data

The assembly line is one of the typical process hard to analyze with mathematical methods including even stochastic approaches, because it includes many manual operations varying drastically depending on operators' skills. In this paper, we suggest the simulation optimization method to design the optimal assembly line of a gas oven. To achieve the optimal design, firstly, we modeled the real gas oven assembly line with actual data, such as assembly procedures, operation rules, and other input parameters and so on. Secondly, we build some alternatives to enhance the line performance based on business rules and other parameters. The DOE(Design Of Experiment) techniques were used for testing alternatives under various situations. Each alternatives performed optimization process with evolution strategy; one of the GA(Genetic Algorithm) techniques. As a result, we can make about 7% of throughputs up with the same time and cost. By this process, we expect the assembly line can obtain the solution compatible with their own problems.

This research was conducted for the optimal design of large commercial gas oven system. Equivalent ratio was determined through a numerical analysis and experiments on the combustion condition of the combustor. After reviewing the supply capacity of burner(20,000 kcal) and control method of convection fan, two types of heat exchangers designed. In order to maintain a uniform temperature inside the oven is required convection fan braking system. The center temperature in the oven rises more rapidly when the convectional fan is rotated in the counterclockwise direction than the counter-clockwise direction. And The efficiency of the system by installing a large heat transfer area was higher.
