The development of the thesis work will provide a tool to perform simulations of the oxidation of the alloying elements in a molten chromium steel bath during the oxidation stage in an electric arc furnace (EAF) by superior oxygen blowing. The effect of elements such as Si and Cr (optionally Mn) with respect to carbon oxidation can be predicted and explained when the model is tested under conditions of pure oxygen flow. It can be projected for air / oxygen mixture or air / argon mixture and the effect of molten bath temperature or less than atmospheric pressure can also be evaluated. The development of a simulation model for the present work is based on chemical oxidation reactions, their chemical equilibrium relations regulated by Gibbs free energy as a function of temperature and activity coefficients (in turn determined by the coefficients iteration and mass composition) It is also based on process parameters such as oxygen flow (or alternative mixtures), and oxygen balance. Using the techniques of numerical methods such as iteration, the process equations will be solved for the specified values of the process input variables such as: the flow of oxygen at equilibrium and simulating through time the oxidation of the elements that make up the liquid steel bath. The mathematical model has been elaborated in a pseudo logical language program of the Pseint program, the same one that through an analysis of plant data carried out in Excel, allowed to correct information, and finally develop the algorithms. The resulting simulations contrasted with Plant data and theoretical concepts, will allow predicting and explaining the oxidation process during the manufacture of chrome steels and projecting in processes such as Electric Furnace, LD, AOD, and in Secondary Metallurgy Processes.
