Typically there are several water cooled systems.
Water cooled furnace roof.
Between rebuilds a typical roof requires about two repairs.
Commercial electric arc furnace flexible smelting temperature with water cooled roof.
Water cooled ladle furnace roof.
Electric arc furnace roofs.
Developed by electric arc furnace operations and maintenance personnel for their own use systems spray cooled eaf roofs provide all of the benefits of water cooling in a safer more reliable less troublesome and more energy efficient manner.
A water cooled roof could be typically used to nearly 500 heats of steel after which it has to be removed and rebuilt.
They are an essential part of the furnace process as a continuous flow of water enters the water jacket circulates the entire ring and exits in order to keep the roof section of the electric arc furnace cool see illustration below.
Our unique one piece design has proven successful on all types shapes and sizes of electric arc furnaces as well as hybrid electrical and chemical energy source furnaces.
In the roof of an electric arc furnace that was cooled with exposed water tubes signs of scaling and corrosion were observed.
The rose corporation recently manufactured a 14 foot diameter and an 11 foot diameter replacement water cooled roof ring used on electric arc furnaces.
Some operations require extremely clean high quality cooling water.
