QUALITY OBJECTIVE OF WRM

1. Statement of Objective: Reduction in Specific heat Consumption at WRM to 0.377GCal/tcw

2. Parameters to be controlled/monitored: Billet temperature
a. Low Carbon Steel : 1100 deg.C
b. High Carbon Steel : 1050 deg.C
Objective/Control Unit Achievement for 2016-17 Target for 2017-18
Parameters
Reduction in specific GCal/tcw 0.392 0.377
Heat Consumption at
WRM
3. Frequency of Review: Every Month
4. Monitoring: Continuous
5. Action Plan for achieving the objective and target
Activities Responsibility Time Frame Remarks
Gas /Air Ratio to be Fce. In charge Continuous 1. Auto combustion system of Zone 2,
adjusted according to Zone 3 and Zone 4 in not operating due
C.V, Main gas line to
pressure i) CV and main gas pressure fluctuations
ii)Jamming of gas FCV (zone 3,4,5)
iii) Failure of positioner of air and gas
FCV of Zone 2(air), Zone 3 and Zone
4(gas).
2. Calorimeter needs to be calibrated
and the reading to be displayed in
furnace HMI.
Heat retention capacity Fce. In charge Major Repair 1. Bulging of north top soak zone wall
of furnace has to be has led to gas leakage from inside
improved. furnace. Billet heads are getting bent
because of the above reason.
2. Shell wall near discharge door has to
be replaced during major/minor repair
to remove hot spots and improve heat
retention capacity of furnace. Billet
head is getting cold due to the above
reason leading to lower rolling rate.
Analysis of flue to be Fce In Charge Continuous Calibration of Oxygen Analyzer needs to
checked for un-burn gas be done at regular intervals.
& its corrective action
suggested by EMD
All the above parameters are valid if C.V is between 2400-2500Kcal/NM3
