A New Electric Arc Furnace Model Based on Current Waveform Synthesis from Distributions of DFT Amplitudes and Power System Frequency

Özgül SALOR-DURNA

The research work presented in this paper proposes a field-data based method for modeling the behavior of the Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) currents for a tap-to-tap period. EAF current DFT distributions and fundamental frequency histograms obtained out of previously collected EAF currents are used to develop the proposed model, which offers a model for each phase of the EAF operation: boring, melting and refining. The model is verified by comparing the THD histograms and the flicker measurements of the original and the modeled EAF current waveforms. The aim of the proposed method is to provide a ...Более
