Abstract: In order to study the different states of lance height in the converter during the blowing process, a water model experiment for the blowing process was designed and the corresponding calculations were analyzed. It was found that the change of lance height had some effect on the liquid level fluctuation, splash height, impact diameter and impact depth in the converter, and the liquid level fluctuation and splash received minimum effect when the lance height was 1.3 m. The change of lance height during the blowing process produced various fluctuations and highly oxidative slag in the converter, which acted on the erosion of the converter lining. From the experiment we found that there were two types of fluctuations in the converter. One was the "snowfall" movement of the steel slag in the low lance height area, and the other was the "waterfall" movement of the steel slag in the middle and high lance height area. In order to improve the metallurgical effect, the converter lance height control process was optimized according to the experimental conclusions. The process lance height was reduced from 1.6~1.5 m to 1.5~1.4 m and the end lance height was reduced from 1.4 m to 1.3 m. After the process optimization, the blowing effect improved significantly showcased in such facts: the blowing time was shortened by 26 s; the percentage content of FeO in the slag was reduced by 7.48; the percentage of residual manganese in the molten steel at the end of the blowing process was increased by 0.052; the converter lining erosion was greatly reduced.
