Analysis of the Effect of Ventilation Bars on the Packing Structure of Sinter Bed by DEM Simulation

The effect of ventilation bars on the porosity of a sinter bed charged on a sinter machine was investigated. The behavior of the sinter feed was calculated by discrete element method (DEM) simulation. By taking into account the adhesion force, the sinter feed in the wet state was represented and the...
