3 phase electric arc furnace.
One example of a three phase load is the electric arc furnace used in steelmaking and in refining of ores.
In are presented models of electric arc from which the authors used in their simulations the model based on formulas that relate arc radius length the arc voltage and the current.

A 3 000 degree fahrenheit electric arc furnace prepares to receive a charge of scrap metal for conversion into steel saturday at severstal columbus photo by carmen k.
The electric arc furnace is a nonlinear and unbalanced high power three phase charge.
Latent heat of steel 37 25 kj kg specific heat of steel 0 444 kj kg c melting point of steel 1370 c initial temperature.
Each phase of the three phase electrical input supplies power to one of the three electrodes that is mounted above the furnace bath through the roof.
A 3 phase electric arc furnace has the following data.
Individual heating units are often connected between phase and neutral to allow for connection to a single phase circuit if three phase is not available.
The three phase electrical input serves as the main energy input in the electric arc furnace.
The electrical energy input needs to be controlled with the aim of achieving the lowest possible production cost.
The 3 phase system is transformed into three single phase systems that are much simpler to analyze.
