EAF Simulator: an EAF process digital twin for training steelmakers on rigorous thermodynamic equilibrium

Practice off-grade heats, overruns and emergencies in the twin: a mentor cannot stage them on a running furnace
Go live on your furnace in weeks, adapting the model on a handful of heats instead of hundreds
Compare regimes and charge mixes on cost in the shop's own kWh/t, Nm³/t and kg/t before anything changes at the furnace
Grade every heat 0-100 on its metallurgical result, tracked per group and per trainee in the LMS
Reuse one calculation core across BOF, ladle furnace, vacuum degassers, AOD and casting
Close mass balance to the kilogram and energy balance to 0.025% of heat input
01
Full Equilibrium Core
Metal-slag-gas equilibrium with no element recovery coefficients: oxygen split, slag oxidation, nitrogen and phosphorus all fall out of a single calculation
02
Reaction-Zone Kinetics
Each step draws metal and slag into the zone in proportion to stirring intensity, leaving one unit-specific parameter and letting an hour-long heat compute in seconds
03
Configurable Device Model
Transformer, burners, buckets, tapping and invisible losses hand standard mass and energy values to one core, and the same configuration drives the 3D scene and control panel
04
Shop-Grade Energy Balance
Itemized the way production accounts for it, with scrap tracked as batches that melt faster under stirring and freeze a shell below the liquidus
05
Built-In Training Loop
Assignments are generated from a steel grade, with goals, ranges and weights in an editable config, and the finished heat is graded automatically
