Abstract The current study aims at modeling of the very effective electric arc furnace (EAF) refining stage to understand the dynamics of the process which affects the consumptions of the EAF. The study uses 3D computational fluid dynamic models to analyze the melt flow and heat profiles inside the electric arc furnace. The model investigates the effect of changes in metallurgical thermo-physical parameters and operating conditions on steel velocity during waiting and arcing time. The investigated parameters include slag thickness, and thermo-physical properties of molten steel at different chemical compositions and temperature ranges |
