Comparison of a Dynamic Model of Electric Arc Furnace with Actual Operation Data for Voltage Flicker Analysis in Electrical Power Network
Tahsin KÖROĞLU
Abstract:Electric arc furnaces (EAFs) used in the iron and steel manufacturing industry for melting and refining scrap metals are one of the most disturbing loads that exhibit unbalanced and highly nonlinear characteristics. Serious voltage fluctuations occur in the power system as a result of the rapid change in the current drawn from the grid by the EAF. Voltage fluctuations lead to a power quality problem known as flicker, which is defined as observable changes in light sources that affect the production environment,… Show more
