Modelling and control of an electrode system for a three-phase Electric Arc Furnace

Modelling and control of an electrode system for a three-phase Electric Arc Furnace

This dissertation investigates the control of the electrical energy input to a three-phase electric arc furnace (EAF). Graphite electrodes are used to convert electrical energy into heat via three-phase electric arcs. Constant arc length is desirable as it implies steady energy transfer from the gra...
