TESTS ON INDUSTRIAL ARC FURNACE DATA<br />

4.1 Introduction<br />

This chapter deals with the tests on industrial arc furnace data. The data used <strong>for</strong><br />

this purpose have been recorded from an electric arc furnace (EAF) under normal<br />

operating condition. The specifications of the furnace are shown in the Table 4.1.<br />

Appendix C contains the EAF schematic and sample current and voltage values. The<br />

algorithms to <strong>for</strong>ecast a signal <strong>for</strong> load modeling and <strong>power</strong> conditioning application, as<br />

discussed earlier, are tested on “real” data in this chapter. The arc furnace current in<br />

different phases is <strong>for</strong>ecasted using the algorithms, assuming that the supply voltage is<br />

constant. The results obtained are compared with the actual measured current. The<br />

comparison is done <strong>for</strong> RMS and average value, CSI, and KS index. Appendix A contains<br />

the Matlab code <strong>for</strong> all industrial arc furnace test.<br />
