In this paper, by using the data of steel melting plant which contains major non-linear load i.e., induction furnace, we modeled such a system, which contains three 12-tons induction furnace in PSCAD software and simulated for three different operating conditions & studied harmonic pattern. Keywords—Induction Melting Furnace;Steel Melting Shop;Harmonics Analysis;Power Quality.

In the present study, we compare a new carbon dioxide (CO2) absorbent, Yabashi lime(®) with a conventional CO2 absorbent, Sodasorb(®) as a control CO2 absorbent for Compound A (CA) and Carbon monoxide (CO) productions. Four dogs were anesthetized with sevoflurane. Each dog was anesthetized with four preparations, Yabashi lime(®) with high or low-flow rate of oxygen and control CO2 absorbent wit...

In this work, we introduce a furnace-balancing scheme that generates an optimal furnace-side feed distribution that has the potential to improve the thermal efficiency of a reformer. The furnace-balancing scheme is composed of four major components: data generation, model identification, a model-based furnace-balancing optimizer and a termination checker. Initially, a computational fluid dynami...

In this paper, synthesis of geopolymer from fly ash with sodium hydroxide as activator was studied. Fly ash was replaced by Lime stone dust in various proportions (10% and 15%) where Fly ash was used as source material for synthesis of geopolymer. Sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solutions were mixed maintaining a silicate modulus (Na2O / SiO2) at 1. Scanning electron micro...

The European Lime Association (EuLA) have instigated a project to identify and quantify the benefits associated with the addition of hydrated lime to cement based mortars, and more importantly, filling the gaps that exist in the evidence in respect of the benefits of hydrated lime additions to workability, bond strength development, durability and in addition the modes of failure of mortars whn...

A non-linear model has been developed for a gas-fired furnace in which oil is heated. The model is applicable from minimum to maximum heat load of the furnace. The dynamics of the model have been compared to experimental results, which were obtained for a pilot-scale furnace. They are in good agreement. A cascade control with feed-forward action has been compared to single feed-back control. Pr...

The “less is more effect” (LIME) occurs when a recognition-dependent agent has a greater probability of choosing the better item than a more knowledgeable agent who recognizes more items. Goldstein and Gigerenzer (2002) define α as the probability that a correct choice is made on the basis of recognition alone and β the probability that a correct choice is made when both items are recognized (v...

The role of lime in the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), i.e., O2-., H2O2, and OH., from betel-quid components (extracts of areca nut and catechu) was investigated in vitro using a chemiluminescence technique and an assay for oxidative DNA damage involving analysis of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine. Of the various areca-nut extracts, the catechin fraction, at alkaline pH, was shown to b...

Combining the transformation project of certain strip steel rolling production line, the techniques process of walking beam heating furnace was elaborated in this paper. The practical application of LOS-T18-2ZC1 laser detector was elaborated. The network communication model of walking beam heating furnace control system was designed. The realization method of production process automation contr...
