Abstract: A method and device for controlling a melting and refining process in an electric arc furnace for melting a metal, wherein the electric arc furnace includes molten and solid metal and a slag layer on the surface of the molten metal, wherein an electromagnetic stirrer is arranged for stirring the molten metal. The method includes calculating/determining masses of the molten and solid metal at a point of time, wherein the calculation is based on initial values of the molten and solid metal, an arc power supplied to the electric arc furnace, and temperatures of the molten and solid metal, determining a stirring power based on the calculated/determined masses, and supplying the determined stirring power to the electromagnetic stirrer.

Abstract: An electromagnetic brake system for a metal-making process. The electromagnetic brake system includes a two-level magnetic structure, in particular an upper magnetic core structure configured to be mounted to an upper portion of a mold and a lower magnetic core structure configured to be mounted to a lower portion of a mold. Lateral coils on the upper magnetic structure are configured to be controlled to generate a first magnetic field in a first field direction and inner coils are configured to be controlled to generate a second magnetic field in a second field direction, simultaneously with the first magnetic field. The lower magnetic core structure has lower coils which are configured to be controlled to generate a third magnetic field in the first direction simultaneously as the lateral coils and the inner coils generate their fields.
