Description
Summary:Ultra-high-power electric arc furnace is the main equipment of modern smelting, but its low-frequency non-stationary inter-harmonics and high-power impact will seriously affect the power quality of distribution networks. The accurate modeling of ultra-high-power electric arc furnace is of great significance to understand the time-varying and non-linear characteristics of the arc and to conduct the targeted research on power quality issues. Aiming at the problem that the existing models have not considered the low-frequency non-stationary inter-harmonic emission characteristics, a novel ultra-high power electric arc furnace model is established. Firstly, a static arc equation is established according to the law of conservation of energy, and a dynamic mathematical model is constructed for the ultra-high-power electric arc furnace using chaos theory. Then, the genetic ant colony algorithm is used to identify the parameters of the dynamic mathematical model. Finally, a 100 t AC electric arc furnace in Fujian was used for case study, and the feasibility of the proposed model was verified under Matlab/Simulink environment. The simulation results show that the proposed model can better describe the operating characteristics of the ultra-high-power electric arc furnace, and can be used for study of the low-frequency non-stationary inter-harmonic emission characteristics of the ultra-high-power electric arc furnace.
