Ladle furnace with DC heating 钢包精炼炉直流加 A metallurgical ladle furnace has a ladle for containing the melt, an arcing electrode positioned on the ladles axis, and a melt electrode in the ladles lower portion and substantially symmetric with respect to the arcing electrode. DC power applied to the electrodes results in an arc between the arcing electrode and the melt for heating the melt and incidentally causing the melt to stir in vertical directions, the melt moving downwardly in the middle below the arc, upwardly along the walls of the melt and inwardly towards the arc. A DC powered coil surrounds the ladle horizontally at half the ladles height or higher, around the upper portions of the melt. The field of this coil in cooperation with a DC flow in the melt caused by the current flow between the electrodes, provides a substantially tangential stirring force on the melt which is in addition to the stirring force of the electrode current in the melt. This additional force results in the surface of the melt acquiring a concave shape surrounding the arc and protecting the ladles wall from the arc flare while increasing the melts energy absorption from the arc. 一种冶金炉钢包包含有一个融化包，一电弧电极定位在钢包的轴，一包融电极在较低的部分，就大大的电弧电极对称。?直流电源的结果应用到电极之间的电弧在电极电弧和熔融加热熔化和熔体意外发生在垂直方向搅拌，熔体移动下方的弧形中间向下向上沿着墙壁，融化暗暗地对弧。?一个直流电源线圈包围水平的一半瓢瓢的高度或更高，围绕融上部。?这种合作与直流流在熔体电极之间的电流流动造成的，线圈领域提供了大量切向力对熔体搅拌里面除了电极的电流在熔体搅拌力。?这在表面附加力的结果融化收购凹形状和保护周围的弧弧耀斑从钢包的墙壁，同时增加熔体的电弧能量的吸收。 Claims: What is claimed is:1. A ladle furnace comprising a ladle containing a melt of molten metal up to a level at or above half the ladles height, an arcing electrode positioned substantially on the ladles vertical axis so as to form a heating arc with said melt in the ladle, a melt electrode positioned in the ladles lower portion substantially symmetrically with respect to the arcing electrode, means for supplying the arcing and melt electrodes with DC power so as to cause a symmetrical flow of current vertically through said melt and between the a
