Summary of the lecture
Join us for an enlightening journey into the world of steelmaking simulators, led by Ph.D. Ronald O’Brien.
In this masterclass we will dive deep into the heart of steelmaking, focusing on the Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) and Secondary Steelmaking (SS) processes. Whether you’re an experienced professional looking to refine your skills or a newcomer to metallurgy, this session is designed to meet your learning needs.
We’ll start by laying a solid foundation to ensure you understand the basic concepts of EAF and SS processes. Our lecturer will then provide practical insights and insider knowledge of these critical steelmaking processes.
This masterclass aims to provide you with the skills and knowledge necessary to improve your performance and participation in steelChallenge-18.
Engage in dynamic discussions and ask questions to deepen your understanding. Ronald O’Brien will be with you every step of the way to ensure your questions are answered and concepts are clearly understood.
Learning Outcomes
At the end of this course the participants will be able to:
- Interpret the basic concepts of EAF and SS processes for steelmaking.
- Understand how these simulators work.
- Create the strategy to resolve correctly a complete run of the integrated simulator.
- Calculate the time and kilograms of additions necessary to solve correctly a good run.
