Abstract

A general model based on the Urbain formalism has been developed, which enables the viscosities of liquid slags to be predicted for all compositions in the Al2O3-CaO-‘FeO’-SiO2 system in equilibrium with metallic iron. Available experimental viscosity data have been analyzed and critically reviewed. The Urbain formalism has been modified to include compositional dependent model parameters. Experimental data in unaries, binaries, ternaries, and the quaternary system have been described by the model over the whole compositional and temperature ranges using one set of model parameters. This viscosity model can now be applied to various industrial slag systems.
