This article describes the basic engineering concepts to be considered in the application of an induction heating furnace in the hot-dip galvanizing line. Experience in the Dongkuk project in Pohang, has shown that this arrangement has many advantages over the conventional method of using a combustion-gas heated furnace. Investment and operating costs are lower, the line length is much shorter, line operation is more convenient, air pollution is reduced, and the coated strip at of top-quality. As these benefits become well known, it is anticipated that the concept of induction heating will be more widely used in both new and revamped process lines. Induction heating is suitable for the production of Commercial Quality hot galvanized coils. More research is required to extend the present concept to the production of higher forming grades such as Drawing, Deep Drawing and Extra Deep Drawing Quality steels. A combination of induction heating and combustion-gas heating may lead to the way to the processing of these qualities of strip.

Induction Heaters are commonly used in heating steel strip product, because it can rapidly and efficiently heat steel strip/bar. In this study, a inductive heating model is developed and the predictions are compared with measured temperatures. The temperatures are measured from POSCO thin-slab rolling facility (so called Minimill). Induction heater is installed between reduction unit and holding furnace This induction heater raise the temperature of steel bars from $930^{\circ}C$ to about $1100^{\circ}C$ which gives the required temperature for finishing mill process after holding period at holding furnace. Unlike other simple equation models, this model allows us to predict temperature profiles of sections of steel bars.

본 연구에서는 16t/h 저주파 유도 용해로에서 주철의 용해 시, 생압고철(Press Scrap)과 파쇄고철(Shredded Scrap)을 사용함에 따른 에너지 원단위(Power Basic Unit)를 비교하였다. 생압고철 대신 파쇄고철을 장입하면, 에너지 원단위가 약 5% 향상되는 것으로 확인되었다. 고철의 형상, 크기에 따른 에너지 측면 특징과 용해로 크기의 영향을 고찰하였다. 마지막으로 본 기술의 활용성을 제고하기 위한 전략을 제안하였다.

A aluminum recycling industry is one of new application of Linear Induction Motor(LIM). As the example a melting furnace. which is using LIM, to melt conductor which is chipped and scrapped is supposed for the aluminum recycling industry. So, in this paper, the LIM for melting furnace are designed. And a electro-magnetical characteristic of designed model is analyzed by 2D-FEM.

In order to fabricate high-quality SiC substrates for power electronic devices, various single crystal growing methods were prepared. These include the physical vapor transport (PVT) and top seeded solution growth (TSSG) methods. All the suggested SiC growth methods generally use induction-heating furnaces. The temperature distribution in this system can be easily adjusted by changing the hot-zone design. Moreover, precise temperature control in the induction-heating furnace is favorably required to grow a high-quality crystal. Therefore, in this study, we analyzed the heat transfer in these furnaces to grow SiC crystals. As the growth temperature of SiC crystals is very high, we evaluated the effect of radiation heat transfer on the temperature distribution in induction-heating furnaces. Based on our simulation results, a heat transfer strategy that controls the radiation heat transfer was suggested to obtain the optimal temperature distribution in the PVT and TSSG methods.

This paper focuses on the pilot-scale investigation of direct recycling of electric arc furnace (EAF) stainless steelmaking dust. The direct recycling of EAF dust is to make pellets with the mixture of the dust and the reducing agent carbon, then introduce the pellets to the EAF. The valuable metals in the dust are reduced and get into the steel as the alloying elements. Experiments simulating direct recycling in an EAF were performed using an induction furnace. But it seems difficult to reduce all metal oxides in the dust so that some metal reducing agents added in the late stage of reduction process. The valuable metals in the dust were reduced partly by carbon and partly by metal reducing agent for the economical concern. The recovery of iron, chromium and nickel from the flue dust and the amount of metal oxides in the slag were measured. The results showed that the direct recycling of EAF stainless steelmaking dust is practicable. It wes also found that direct recycling of flue EAF stainless steelmaking dusts does not affect the chemistry and quality of stainless steel produced in the EAF. It is benefit not only for the environmental protection but also for the recovery of valuable metal resources in this way.

In this study, metallurgical grade (MG) silicon with 99% purity produced by arc furnace process was systematically investigated for slag refining. The most problematic impurities to remove from MG silicon are boron (B) and phosphorus (P). To remove B and P from MG-silicon, we used synthetic slag in the molten state. MG-silicon with synthetic slag of CaO, $SiO_2$, and $CaF_2$ was melted using by high-frequency induction furnace with electrical output of 50kW. Specimens prepared by various refining process conditions(holding time, mixture ratio) were inspected by combined analysis of ICP-MS and XRF. With this approach, B has been reduced to <5ppm, P to <1ppm and other impurities to 0.1~0.2% except for Calcium. Calcium has been increased from 17ppm to 1500ppm. Problem of calcium contamination will be resolved by additional refining processes.

In the end of 2014, Changwon National University and TECHSTEEL Co., Ltd. had initiated a project on the development of a 300 kW-class HTS DC Induction Furnace(HTS DC IF) for preheating non-ferrous metal billets funded by the Korea Institute of Energy Technology Evaluation and Planning for 3 years. This is the one of the most realistic commercial machines applying the coated conductors. In this paper, the development progress of a 300 kW-class HTS DC IF was introduced. The major characteristics of the furnace including its capacity, structure and operation scheme were presented. For ensuring the successful design, a pre-validation study was performed through the electromagnetic, heat transfer and solid mechanical analysis using a multi-physics FEM tool. The aluminum billet was heated up to $540^{\circ}C$ under 1 T of the magnetic flux density at the center of the billet, and the simulation results were described in detail.
