Worst tap I've seen in a long time, stream was all over the place.
Tap temperature would be around 1600degC.
This is a submerged tap hole EAF for slag free tapping.

Wow...does this go to an LMF? If so I'd hate to have to get the customer's chemistry specs on that one...definatly a high si!

@verona887 yes, this is the melting stage of the scrap steel.
The LMF will do the final blending stages of the steel.

I hope that's not a bottom tap. If it were I would be cussing. That looks kind cold (less than 2900 degrees)

It's a spout tap, bear in mind that I work as a contractor on the electrical side here and am not an expert in steel making.
Also the colour on a camera may not always be exact as the brightness may overdrive the automatic camera adjustments.

That is correct.
