Abstract (en)

The invention relates to metallurgy, to designs of top combustion (shaftless) hot air heaters of blast furnaces. A shaftless air heater includes a cylindrical chamber (1) with a checkerwork (2) and a dome (3) located above the checkerwork (2) and having a cylindrical section (4) as well as a tapering section (5) located above the cylindrical section (4) and a cylindrical throat (6) located above the tapering section (5) and communicating with a pre-chamber (7) located above the dome. Channels (9, 10 and 11, 12) for supplying air and gas respectively into the pre-chamber (7) are located in lateral walls (8) of the pre-chamber (7). The shaftless air heater is implemented with a ratio of the diameter (D 1 ) of the cylindrical throat (6) to the diameter (D 2 ) of the cylindrical section (4) of the dome (3) ranging from 0.31 to 0.41. The technical result is elimination of conditions for combustion pulsations and increase in completeness of gas combustion.
