What is the diameter of submerged arc furnace?

Submerged Arc Furnace is also called smelting furnace. The furnace is called submerged Arc because Soderberg(Carbon) Electrodes are , buried inside the charge mix. Though Arcing is there but can not be seen. This Furnace is used for producing Ferro Alloys,Pig iron,Silicon metal, Calcium Carbide, Ferro Silicon,Ferro Chrome, Silico Manganese


Who are suppliers of the submerged arc furnace?

Vaibhav Furnaces is the supplier.


What are tapping fumes in submerged arc furnace?

Tapping in the furnace means " Taking out the liquid metal/ferro alloy" . It is a cyclic event.


Why electrode is submerged in submerged arc furnace?

Electrodes are Submerged in the Submerged Arc Furnace, into the raw materials. Reason, for allowing the electrodes to reside inside the charge mix, is the high resistance of the ores. Three purposes are served : 1. The heat coming out from arcing is utilized for preheating the ore at the upper strata. 2. Ore/Coke dust from reaction gases is entrapped in the charge mix, this increases the efficiency. 3. In case of power failure, the heat is retained in the molten alloy, meaning very low heat loss to the atmosphere.


Type of weld for Lsaw pipes are double submerged arc welding?

No. Double Submerged Arc Welded is DSAW; LSAW stands for Longitudinal Submerged Arc Welded. As an aside, HSAW stands for Helically Submerged Arc Welded. All of these refer to various types of pipe manufacturing processes.


Will a furnace leak gas if a basement floods?

Probably not, but if the furnace or a part of it was submerged you should have it checked out.


Why is submerged arc welding referred as submerged?

Submerged arc welding is called "submerged" because the high voltage electrical current (called the "arc") that heats the metal and wire to weld together is submerged underneath layers of granular earth materials called "flux". About 50% to 90% of this flux can be re-used and fed back into the system with the proper equipment.

How do you calculate arc length between electrode and charge in arc furnace?

Arc Length depends on the secondary voltage of furnace transformer. Thumb rule is for 500V the Arc length would be 500mm(20"). The purpose of arc length is to give maximum power to the melt, without arc flare. -
