Refractories for Various Parts of Lime Rotary Kiln. In front of the lime rotary kiln preheating zone is a preheater. The limestone is heated in a preheater with a particle size of 10-30mm, and the temperature of the preheating section is 1000°C. Refractories in this area should be high strength, wear-resistance, and thermal shock resistance.
5 Figure 3: Granular flow regimes and the Froude number associated with each bed movement [13] Yin et al. [14] stated that the flow into the active layer depends mainly on both the Froude number (Fr = ω2R/g, where ω is the angular velocity of rotation and g the acceleration of gravity) and size ratio ( O= ã/, where ã is the particle diameter and the radius of the kiln cylinder).
The model of calcination zone temperature in the lime rotary kiln based on SVM has good performance. The proposed predictive control method can make the output value of the calcination zone temperature of the lime rotary kiln fast and stable to track the change of the reference value.
