ABSTRACT:
The water rheostat has a main electrode unit including the main electrode shaped as a hollow cylinder and provided with an electrode water inlet port in the top of the hemispherical upper end portion of the electrode, electrode water outlet ports at equal intervals at the bottom of the electrode along the total circumference of the electrode. A sleeve resistant to arc discharge is fitted in the circular recess of the top portion of the support the main electrode unit so that the sleeve is in contact with the inside circumferential surface of the top portion and a circumferential gap is defined between the bottom of the main electrode and the inside circumferential surface of the top portion of the support. An electrode water circulation pump and a plurality of air and water cooling radiators are provided in an electrode water cooling and circulation passage line which is for feeding and draining a prescribed quantity of electrode water so that the temperature and amount of the electrode water in the water rheostat are kept constant. A safety circuit breaker is provided in the halfway portion of a power cable for connecting the main electrode unit to a power supply, so that the breaker is turned off when the flow rate of the electrode water through the electrode water cooling and circulation passage line is less than a prescribed value. A spray nozzle unit and a motor coupled with a fan are provided in the face of the rear of the body of each of the radiators so that the motor is located behind the spray nozzle unit. The front of the body of each of the radiators is covered with a hood having a steam release port in the top of the hood.
