Abstract
For effective burden distribution in a blast furnace, correct prediction of material trajectory is very important. A mathematical model based on single particle approach has been developed to estimate the material trajectory in a blast furnace fitted with a compact bell-less top. The model has been validated with in-furnace measurements of Tata Steel's 'F' blast furnace. Results obtained regarding the applicability of the model are promising.
