🔥 Electric Arc Furnace: Heat Balance, Power-On Time and Specific Energy (2D)

Cross-section of a three-electrode steel arc furnace charged with scrap. Set the scrap mass, transformer voltage and current, power factor, oxygen and fuel assist, panel heat loss and tap temperature, and watch the bath heat, melt and superheat. The enthalpy needed, power-on time and kilowatt-hours per tonne come from an energy balance, with four in-page numerical checks. An energy companion to the 3D integrated steelworks.
