Title: A Dynamical Simulation Model of a Cement Clinker Rotary Kiln
(Submitted on 6 May 2024)
Abstract: This study provides a systematic description and results of a dynamical simulation model of a rotary kiln for clinker, based on first engineering principles. The model is built upon thermophysical, chemical, and transportation models for both the formation of clinker phases and fuel combustion in the kiln. The model is presented as a 1D model with counter-flow between gas and clinker phases and is demonstrated by a simulation using industrially relevant input. An advantage of the proposed model is that it provides the evolution of the individual compounds for both the fuel and clinker. As such, the model comprises a stepping stone for evaluating the development of process control systems for existing cement plants.
