Therefore, the synergistic operation of the material flow and the energy flow at the interface is momentous to the effective production of the ironmaking-steelmaking section. However, there is a lack of solutions to realize the synergy. Here, we presented a coupling simulation model for the material flow and energy flow of the ironmaking-steelmaking interface, based on the mathematical description of their operation behaviors, the operation and technical model of the production equipment and the temperature-decreasing model of the ladle. Further, the coupling simulation model was applied to a concrete ironmakingsteelmaking interface using the One-Ladle Technique. The coupling simulation model proved its performance in providing comprehensive decisionmaking supports and optimized production management strategies by achieving a solution that results in a decline of 10 ? in the average temperature drop of the hot metal and a reduction in the cost per tonne of steel by CNY 1.02TEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverza v Mariboru, Fakulteta za strojništvo
