You have to see, hear and feel these furnaces operating to really appreciate their power. Ear plugs and ear muffs are required to protect your ears. Sign language is necessary, conversation is not possible. Its simply too loud. Tap out (emptying the furnace) is also something to see.

I worked in a factory as a weldor for 30 years ,, and a steel shop is noisy but THIS! my god the noise ! the heat!! i know now that foundry dirt is the hardest stuff to get off of any thing! working around equipment like that for eight or ten hours a day,, I don't think i could last long at a job like that hats off to those that can.

@@williammoses6232 that was the baghouse exhaust fans spooling up. In the US we have to run them at all times, but over in slav land and other third world countries they shut them down when not arcing to save on electricity. some carbon steel EAF's have carbon injection systems in the side panels, but they dont make sounds like that. In a converter there is high pressure gas pumped into the steel, and you can definatly hear that, but it sounds more like a gigantic air line instead of a jet turbine.

Brings back memories of my summer in 1988, when I worked at the LTV Steel EAF in Cleveland. (The #79 and #80 furnaces as I recall). My dad was an employee and they had a summer jobs program for their college kids. I remember the heat, the dust, and my God, the noise! When they were sure I wouldn't kill myself or others, I got to take temperature samples in the furnace and the ladle, help plug the tap hole after the heat, and even add electrodes on top of the furnace. While my friends were flipping burgers or stocking shelves on their summer break, I had some stories to tell when fall classes resumed. This smart-ass college kid got a real education. Much respect for the men and women who work these jobs. A summer job not to be forgotten.

The three others jumped but I'm the one that startles easy I guess. No one laughed at me except my supervisor.

+Ben B This is a really big EAF, at 80MW. At MacAlloy, we had a 40 MW running three 20MVA single phase transformers, used for making Ferrochromium. We were the last in the US, our plant was in Charleston SC. I thought WE were big, and we thought we were the largest EAFs in the world. We also did Plasma-arc furnace experiments, and when starting them up cold, used steel shavings to get the current and heat up. Yeah, it was wild watching the erratic arcing through the scrap, so seeing minimills that fed their furnaces scrap steel is really wild when you're talking the big capacity ones. Loud as hell too, isn't it?

Kind of a closeup of what I see behind Kiwanis Park in Tempe. From the park, you can get on a hill and look into the melt shop of ME Elecmetals and see their EAF in action. Their foundry is fed by three 3-phase 69 kV power lines. You can park by the Ruben Romero Picnic area and hear the deep 60Hz buzz from the furnace. The foundry emits a hot chemical smell. Since this was filmed in Russia, I imagine that's a 50Hz buzz we're hearing.

Open Q to any of you who've worked on one of these beasts; how long do those electrodes last? I presume they don't get consumed like welding rods, right? Approx. how many batches before they need to be changed? Do they ever just snap and fall off into the melt? If the power is lost would the whole thing go solid? The electrodes are basically giant pencil leads, right?

Was a millwright that worked on these furnaces 70's and 80's the electrodes were carbon about 2' x 12' and they never changed but kept adding to the top,they actually had a coarse tapered plug on one end and a threaded socket hole on other end. Ours had three arms that lowered these with a shoe on end that opened and closed to let the electrode slide thru and they would usually add a section every three heats. And yes they would occasionally break when scrap fell in on them and they would fish it out with tongs on the crane.

they'll learn the hard way about turning power down on cold scrap then ramp up power as you go.. breaking electrodes full power on cold scrap is common..oh..and the rushing air you heard might be oxy burners fire up like your cutting torch..

Human body energy consumption is roughly 10.000.000 joules per day, so metabolism during 8 days equals 1 second EAF. 45 Seconds equals one year of metabolism.

When that thing takes off, the sound makes me think if we were attacked by Aliens, their weapons might be like that. Kind of a scary thought isnt't it.
