Abstract :
The calculation of metal circulations in a three-phase in-line electrode arc furnace to obtain the most likely locations of refractory wear as a function of the phasing of supply currents is discussed. The approach is analytic, and the result of calculations indicate the directions and the expected magnitudes of circulations (curl) in the furnace at various locations.
