Corex is a smelting-reduction process developed by Siemens , for the cost-efficient and environmentally friendly production of hot metal from iron ore and coal. The process differs from the conventional blast furnace route in that non-coking coal can be directly used for ore reduction and melting work, eliminating the need for coking plants. The use of lump ore or pellets also dispenses with the need for sinter plants. All metallurgical work is carried out in two separate process reactors - the reduction shaft and the melter gasifier. Lump ore, sinter, pellets or a mixture are charged into a reduction shaft where they are reduced to direct-reduced iron (DRI) by a reduction gas. Discharge screws convey the DRI from the reduction shaft into the melter gasifier where final reduction and melting takes place in addition to all other metallurgical and slag reactions.

simply by measuring the coil voltage, coil current & power factor.
Refractory consumption per ton in an induction furnace refers to the amount of refractory material used during the melting process, typically measured in kilograms per ton of metal produced. This consumption can vary based on factors such as the type of refractory used, the operational practices, and the specific characteristics of the charge materials. Generally, the refractory consumption ranges from 5 to 20 kg per ton of metal, depending on the furnace design and operational conditions. Minimizing refractory consumption is essential for cost efficiency and operational effectiveness.

There is hardly 1.5 to 2.0% loss in induction melting of steel but even it can be also avoided with the help of covering of crucibles. just open it at the time of charging only is the best practise to avoid oxidation & heat losses for Induction melting for steel.
A cupola furnace is not the same as a crucible furnace. A cupola furnace is a type of melting furnace used mainly for iron melting, while a crucible furnace is a type of melting furnace that uses a ceramic or graphite crucible to contain the molten metal. The names reflect the different structures and functions of the two types of furnaces.
An induction furnace is an electrical furnace in which the heat is applied by induction heating of a conductive medium (usually a metal) in a crucible placed in a water-cooled alternating current solenoid coil.
To calculate the power required for an induction furnace, you need to consider factors such as the material being melted, desired melting rate, and system efficiency. The formula for calculating power is Power (kW) = (Mass in kg) x (Specific heat of material) x (Temperature rise in °C) x (Melting time in hours) / 860. This calculation gives you an estimate of the power needed to melt a specific amount of material in a given time frame.
Vacuum induction melting (VIM) is a metal process to use electromagnetic induction heating principle to melt the metal under vacuum conditions. In the electromagnetic induction heating process, the induction coil of induction heater will produce eddy current in order to melt the metal. This induction melting process can be used to refine high purity metals and alloys. If you want to learn more, please Visit gslipai. com or sent an email to lipaiheating@gmail.com.
