Hell, man, drop the charge already, we got steel to make!

is this lieapaja?
-
@gkorakali mate u need 3MW :)
no point of making furnaces which can recieve less than 60tons
-
What mill is this?
-
@chemech OK, most of the low level fume after bore-down got dragged over there by the crane, then started to cool off and drop...
-
@steelboss337 - I've not been getting so many calls from clients this last year - most shops aren't pushing their production limits these days. Still, I notice that you have some residual charging fume on the far side of the EAF as you start to bore down...
Man, I do miss observing charging, and checking the canopy evacuation...
-
@gkorakali - Rule of thumb is 1 MVA per metric ton. That's about 1 MW, depending on your power factor.
A5 US ton DC furnace would be set up with about a 4 MW DC transformer, for example.
That's a tiny furnace by modern standards - for a foundry?
-
@homebrainbox - Just what I was thinking. The bucket should be almost pushing the roof of of the EAF...
-
Why is the basket on a lifting beam when the crane has what I can only assume to be a ladle hoist behind it? Do you charge and tap in the same bay?
-
Why so slow? Man if i charged our furnace that slow i would be very unpopular on our crew. Besides a good booming charge is half the fun of working in a melt shop. In our plant the Furnace Utility would have to sweep it up.... the Second helper only cleans the back porch.

This furnace runs around 110MW at peak power.
At 1,100 volts, it will pull anywhere from 60,000 - 80,000 amps.
About the same amount of power consumed by 5,000 average homes.
The noise and fire and explosions are perfectly normal.
It does not smell really bad, smells like money.
