Simulation optimization of logistics for iron-making plant based on plant simulation
The number and circle frequency of online iron ladles have significant influence on logistics for iron-making plant.Starting with the iron-ladle preparation regulation,the original data of iron ladle turnover in Chongqing Iron and Steel Company (CISC)were analyzed.Afterwards,a simulation model of logistics for the iron-making plant on the pattern of three blast furnaces-three converters was established with Plant Simulation software.The proper online number and the logistical parameters of iron ladles in CISC were studied under the iron-ladle "3 + 1 + X" system and the dynamic system optimized.The simulation results showed that the dynamic system could decrease online iron ladle number by one and the empty ladle time by average 20 minutes comparing with "3 + 1 + X" system,which was a significant guide for iron-making plants to make their logistics more integrated,efficient and economical.
