Title :
The electrical design and considerations for a ladle metallurgy facility-Granite City Division National Steel Corporation
Abstract :
A ladle metallurgy facility is a secondary liquid steel refining process. This process occurs after the steel is produced from iron in a basic oxygen furnace and before the hot liquid steel is cast into slabs for further processing. The discussion covers: primary feeder design, the features of the arc furnace transformer; heating controls; drive design and redundancy; control-system components and configuration; redundancy; remote input and output; and, the operator´s interface.<>
