A mathematical model was developed and validated for the operation of a thermal lance, focusing on heat transfer and kinetics behavior. The combustion rate window for the thermal lance operation is mainly determined by the oxygen partial pressure, which can be adjusted by manipulating the oxygen supply flow rate. An open issue is the lack of experimental kinetics data for thermal lance combustion.
A mathematical model for the operation of a thermal lance is developed and validated, with the focus on its heat transfer and kinetics behavior. It has been found that there is a window of combustion rates in which the thermal lance can operate, which is mainly dictated by the oxygen partial pressure. The particular value of the combustion rate can be set by adjusting the flow rate of the oxygen supply, which is practically done by manipulating the oxygen supply pressure. An open issue is the lack of experimental kinetics data for thermal lance combustion.
