Electroslag melting furnace

Japanese: エレクトロスラグ溶解炉 - えれくとろすらぐようかいろ
Electroslag melting furnace

…In contrast, in furnaces that use consumable electrodes, the electrodes themselves are melted using the Joule heat or arc heat generated between the electrodes and consumed to participate in the smelting process. Examples of this type of furnace include vacuum consumable electrode arc melting furnaces and electroslag melting furnaces. The electrodes are melted successively from the tip by the Joule heat caused by the arc heat or the electrical resistance of the molten slag, and impurities are removed as they drip through the vacuum or molten slag, producing a high-quality ingot in a water-cooled mold. …

…これに対して消耗電極を用いる炉では,電極間に発生するジュール熱またはアーク熱を利用して電極自体が溶解され,製錬に関与するために消費される。この型の炉には真空消耗電極アーク溶解炉やエレクトロスラグ溶解炉などがある。電極はアーク熱または溶融スラグの電気抵抗によるジュール熱によって先端から逐次溶解され,真空内または溶融スラグ中を滴下していく間に不純物が除去されて,水冷鋳型には高品質な鋳塊が製造される。…
