ABSTRACT:
The method relates to the operation of a D.C. electric-arc furnace provided with at least one bottom electrode including an elongated metal current-supply body passing through the hearth of the furnace and surrounded by a casing made of dense refractory substance, comprising at least one shell ring whose upper end comes into contact with the molten metal in the furnace. During restarting of the furnace after shut-downs, a free expendable annular part made of refractory material, of flattened general shape, is placed on the upper end of the shell ring, which part extends it upwards and is intended to come into contact with the molten metal instead of said shell ring. The method applies in particular to D.C. electric-arc furnaces for the manufacture of steel, and is intended to reduce wear on the refractory parts surrounding the bottom electrode.
