Abstract

In the light of a great amount of heat produced in the sintering process for smelting steel and iron, established was a mathematical model for sintering waste heat dual pressure power generation systems and developed was a waste heat recovery and optimization system. In the meantime, based on the particle swarm optimization algorithm, with the maximum power output serving as the objective, the main parameters of a waste heat recovery system was designed and optimized. The optimization results show that when the HP steam at the outlet of the boiler is in its superheating state and the LP steam is in its saturation state, the power output of the system will attain its maximum value. When the optimum parameters are adopted for the system, it can realize an annual value of RMB 117785000 yuan.
