    RECAP

    We have discussed
    • Basic circuit for electric arc furnace

    EE502.18 2
    OBJECTIVES

    On the completion of this topic you would be able to


    know

    • Application of Direct and Indirect Arc Furnaces.

    EE502.18 3
    DIRECT ARC FURNACE

    • The most common application of Direct Arc furnace is to


    produce steel.

    • It is very simple and easy to control the composition of the


    final product during refining process.

    • This furnace is more advantageous as compared to


    Cupola furnace.

    • The Arc furnace are costlier as compared to other furnaces.

    EE502.18 4
    INDIRECT ARC FURNACE

    • Indirect Arc furnace is used for melting of non-ferrous


    metals.

    • It can be used in iron foundries where small quantities of


    Iron is required frequently.

    • It is more suitable when the charge is to be varied


    frequently or heating is intermittent.
