Abstract

Because of the complexity, dynamicity and uncertainty of the steelmaking process, it is difficult to establish the simulation model to express most characteristics of the mixed production system for mathematical method. This paper researches the steelmaking logistics model which includes production equipment and production process, and establishes the simulation system for logistics in steelmaking process based on Flexsim which includes the process simulation, human-computer interaction and decision-making. The simulation results have shown the efficiency of the simulation system by practical production data. The simulation system supplies the object experimental platform for the study of steelmaking scheduling methods which are suitable for practice.
