Through the water model experiment of oxygen-enriched top-blowing bath smelting, the effects of factors such as gas flow, lance position and liquid height on the bubble size distribution and liquid splash height during top blowing process of waste circuit boards were studied. The results showed that, the mixing effect worked best when the lance blew in the center of the molten pool. With a suitable increase of the gas flow, the impact of bubble refinement in the molten pool can be optimized. At the same time, the liquid splash, slag entrapment and liquid level fluctuation were aggravated. Appropriately increasing the liquid height can inhibit liquid splash to a certain extent. Considering the effect of bubble refinement and liquid splash height, the optimal experimental conditions of this experimental system were as follows. A straight barrel lance with a diameter of 15mm was installed in the center of the furnace body, the liquid height was 80mm, the lance submersion depth was 40mm, and the gas flow was 7.48Nm 3 /h.
