Excerpt from The Electric Furnace The very high range of temperatures attainable in electric furnaces has opened up a large field of chemistry which was not previously accessible. In the case of processes in which the electric current merely acts as a heating agent and is dissociated from any electrolytic action, products such as artificial graphite, the highly refractory metals in a compact form, and a large series of compounds of carbon with metals, have been isolated for the first time. In many cases these products have received an industrial application which has already ranged them in the forefront of the world's manufacturing processes. With other substances, notably certain classes of steel and iron and ferro-alloys, aluminium and sodium, the agency of electricity applied to chemical processes, has led to a very great simplification and cheapening of the manufacture, while with yet another class of products, such as copper and zinc, these methods have enabled materials to be prepared of a degree of purity unattainable by any other means. The electric furnace, in facilitating the production of a range of temperatures well beyond that attainable by any other known method, has thus inaugurated a new department of chemical industry. On account of the rapid progress of this branch of industrial electro-chemistry, it has until recently been generally overlooked that an extension of electrical methods of heating of no less importance has taken place in another direction, viz. in chemical and metallurgical operations, including those with both ferrous and non-ferrous metals for the production of heat at temperatures which are well within the range of ordinary fuel-heating methods.

Excerpt from The Electric Furnace: Its Construction, Operation and Uses On my first visit to Canada, in 1897, I constructed an electric furnace and showed it in operation at a lecture on Canada's metals, which was delivered by the late Sir William Roberts-Austen. The application of electrical heat to Metallurgy has always interested me greatly and I hope that this little book may serve to instil this interest in others, and to help forward the application of electric smelting in a country which is so rich in water-powers and mineral resources. This book originated in a series of papers, written about a year ago for the "Canadian Engineer," in which I endeavored to present, as simply as possible, the principles on which the construction and use of the electric furnace depend, and to give an account of its history and present development. The original papers were written at a time when the experiments of Dr. Haanel, at Sault Ste. Marie, were attracting public attention, and a large section of the book has been devoted to the consideration of these and other advances in the electrometallurgy of iron and steel. I wish to thank all who have helped me in the preparation of this book, including Dr. Haanel, whose valuable monographs have formed the basis of my chapter on iron and steel, and to whom I am indebted for additional information on this branch of the subject; Prof J. W. Richards, who has taken an interest in my work, and whose book on "Metallurgical Calculations" has been of considerable assistance in writing the chapter on furnace efficiencies; Mr. E. A. Colby, who gave me information in regard to his induction steel furnace and a sketch for Fig. 25; Mr. Francis A. J. Fitzgerald, who supplied me with the data for Table X.; the editor of the "Electrochemical and Metallurgical Industry," who loaned the block for the frontispiece, and the International Acheson Graphite Company, who gave me information about their furnaces and lent the block for Fig. 40. I also wish to thank those of my personal friends who assisted me in the tedious work of proof-reading. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Li'l Bertha is Dave Gingery's eighth book and was originally published in 1984 by Lindsay Publications. This second edition has been published by David J. Gingery Publishing, LLC. The book Li'l Bertha describes the construction of an electric furnace that can be used as an alternative to a charcoal or gas fired foundry furnace. Although designed with the foundry in mind, the general design details can be adapted to a wide range of furnace needs from creating ceramics to heat-treating to calcining of investment molds and more.

Excerpt from Electric Furnaces in the Iron and Steel Industry The giant strides made in all forms of essential industrialism during the Great War did not neglect the electric furnace. Indeed, it fared better than even the optimists did hope. This, taken together with the practical uniformly good steel made in them by experienced men, heat after heat, has placed this industry on a more solid and dignified footing. Added evidence of this is the one thousand electric furnaces melting and refining steel which are either built or building. The next ten years will no doubt witness more than double the number of electric furnaces described in this volume than those which are in existence to-day.

This book equips a reader with knowledge necessary for critical analysis of innovations in electric arc furnaces and helps to select the most effective ones and for their successful implementation. The book also covers general issues related to history of development, current state and prospects of steelmaking in Electric Arc Furnaces. Therefore, it can be useful for everybody who studies metallurgy, including students of colleges and universities. The modern concepts of mechanisms of Arc Furnace processes are discussed in the book at the level sufficient to solve practical problems: To help readers lacking knowledge required in the field of heat transfer as well as hydro-gas dynamics, it contains several chapters which provide the required minimum of information in these fields of science. In order to better assess different innovations, the book describes experience of the application of similar innovations in open-hearth furnaces and oxygen converters. Some promising ideas on key issues regarding intensification of the heat, which are of interest for developers of new processes and equipment for Electric Arc Furnaces, are also the concern of the book It should be noted, that carrying out the simplified calculations as distinct from using "off the shelf" programs greatly promotes comprehensive understanding of physical basics of processes and effects produced by various factors. This book gives numerous examples of such calculations performed by means of simplified methods and formulas. Getting familiar with material in this book will allow the reader to perform required calculations on his / her own without any difficulties.
