The Arvedi Group approached the University of Trieste to find a solution to the uneven distribution of material inside the hopper of their blast furnace in Trieste, Italy.
The university’s Mechanical Engineering Department studied the problem and used modeFRONTIER to optimize the design of a new deflector ensuring better material distribution.
Leveraging ESTECO’s integration and process automation technology, they coupled modeFRONTIER with Rocky DEM software to accelerate the simulation process of the material distribution. Using the proprietary algorithms available in modeFRONTIER, they were also able to find the optimal design for a new deflector.
