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.

steel industry is one of the most consumption of energy in the world, which is related to melting furnace which result environmental pollution. we calculate the energy consumption and capital cost of dust collectors of venturi scrubber (vs) and electrostatic precipitator (esp) which are connected to melting furnace in respect to industrial ecology for selection of appropriate dust collection sy...

Introduction Fast, efficient batch melting using the modern induction furnace can improve operating flexibility and production yield, as well as reduce the cost of environmental protection. The compelling advantages of induction batch melting have encouraged foundries to change the way they handle their melting operations. Among the chief advantages is cost. The operational cost of a typical in...

This paper deals with a novel interactive approach of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) as an optimization tool for optimizing process parameters of rotary furnace. This approach solves a very challenging problem in the area of rotary furnace i. e. selection of optimal process parameters for producing homogenous quality castings. Rotary furnace involves several critical parameters like flame temp...

This paper presents a practical application of fuzzy logic to the temperature control of glass melting furnace for television picture tube. Because of the complexity and nonlinearity, temperature control of glass melting furnace is still delegated to human operators. Though the overall characteristics of glass melting furnace are complex and nonlinear, one part of the furnace characteristics ca...

laboratory and industrial scale experiments are made on the application of sponge iron pellets and briquettes for the production of cast iron and steel in different melting systems, such as electric induction furnace, electric resistance furnace and fuel-fired crucible furnace. effect of various variables such as specifications of sponge iron, temperature of the molten metal and the method of f...

In this paper neuro-fuzzy technique is used for the first time in modeling eco-friendly furnace parameters to predict the melting rate of the molten metal required to produce homogenous and quality castings. The relationship between the process variables (input) viz. flame temperature, preheat air temperature, rotational speed of the furnace dome, percentage of excess air, melting time, fuel co...

In this study, metal behavior in ash-melting and municipal solid waste (MSW) gasiWcation-melting facilities were investigated. Eight ash-melting and three MSW gasiWcation-melting facilities with a variety of melting processes and feedstocks were selected. From each facility, melting furnace Xy ash (MFA) and molten slag were sampled, and feedstock of the ash-melting processes was also taken. For...

In this study, metal behavior in ash-melting and municipal solid waste (MSW) gasification-melting facilities were investigated. Eight ash-melting and three MSW gasification-melting facilities with a variety of melting processes and feedstocks were selected. From each facility, melting furnace fly ash (MFA) and molten slag were sampled, and feedstock of the ash-melting processes was also taken. ...
