Abstract
A new physical model has been developed to represent the splashing behaviour in the BOF. By this technique, which is performed by a relatively simple experimental set‐up, determination of splashing distribution on the walls of the model is possible. The method enables quite fast definition of the effect of different blowing parameters on the location and quantity of liquid splashed. The main advantage of this novel method is the fact that splashes are collected from the whole model wall circumference which is very important when interaction between lance jet cavities and bottom blowing plumes results in irregular splashing distribution. Preliminary results show that the method is excellently suited for investigation of splashing in the BOF.
