Implication

Numerical analysis reveals heating and melting behaviors in direct current arc furnaces, highlighting Joule heat effects.

Key Points

  • Heating and melting dynamics in direct current electrical arc furnaces were analyzed through numerical modeling.
  • Key metrics included heat flux, Joule heat, and the solidus and liquidus temperature evaluation.
  • The study utilized the enthalpy and porosity approach to represent the mushy zone in melting processes.
  • Computed mass fraction distributions provided insights into the duration of heating and melting processes.
