Do you know what an electric arc furnace is? If we don't contact this thing, we must be confused. We don't know what the hell it is. Today, youngde Electric will tell you what an electric arc furnace is!

Electric arc furnace is actually a tool for steelmaking. There are many kinds of electric arc furnaces. According to their different types, their smelting methods are also different. Today, we focus on DC electric arc furnace.

DC electric arc furnace, like AC electric arc furnace, uses the arc generated between electrode and charge to heat, so as to achieve the purpose of smelting. It is usually used for steelmaking or alloy, etc.

Unlike ordinary electric arc furnaces, DC electric arc furnaces have many advantages:

1. The arc is stable and relatively concentrated, and the mixing performance of the molten pool is good. The temperature distribution in the furnace is relatively uniform, and the erosion of the furnace lining is small, which has outstanding advantages.

2. The fluctuation of current and voltage of DC electric arc furnace is relatively small, so the impact on the power grid is relatively small in all aspects. In this way, the service life of the cable can be reasonably and effectively extended, with outstanding advantages.

3. The electrode loss of DC electric arc furnace is much less. Compared with AC electric arc furnace, the electrode consumption per ton of steel can be reduced by more than half. Therefore, the performance of DC electric arc furnace is much better than that of AC electric arc furnace, but it has a great obstacle to its development because it can not obtain high-power DC power supply.
