The Iron Blast Furnace: A Study in Chemical Thermodynamics.
Treptow, Richard S.; Jean, Luckner
Journal of Chemical Education, v75 n1 p43-47 Jan 1998
Discusses the furnace from a chemical thermodynamics perspective. Examines the enthalpy, entropy, and free energy change for each reaction of importance. These properties are interpreted on the molecular level then used to deduce the conditions necessary for each reaction to occur in its intended direction. Chemical kinetics is also discussed. (DKM)
