ABSTRACT:
This disclosure relates to an electric arc furnace control system for positionally displacing the consumable furnace electrodes. Each electrode is coupled to an electric motor and arranged for vertical height displacement in relation to the material in the furnace. An arc current control signal is derived by comparing the actual arc current with a reference electrode arc current. In addition, a reactive power control signal is also derived by comparison of the (actual reactive power/actual real power) with a desired ratio of (reactive power/real power). The arc current control and the reactive power control signals are algebraically summed to provide an output error signal which is sent to the respective electric motors to provide rectilinear displacement of the electrodes.
