What are the factors that affect the energy consumption of the intermediate frequency furnace?

  There are four main factors affecting the energy consumption of the intermediate frequency furnace : 
　　 1, power supply 
Induction furnace power density configuration level. The configuration is high, the melting speed is fast, and the energy saving effect is good. Whether the electric furnace can maintain high power and continuously send power to the furnace will affect the energy consumption; the power supply line of the intermediate frequency furnace is disorderly, which will affect the processing capacity of the power supply, resulting in unstable power, low power conversion efficiency, and energy consumption. .  
　　 2, the melt materials
The cleanliness of the surface of the charge, such as 5 % impurities, will consume 5 % of the electrical energy to melt these impurities, and will affect the life of the lining; the appropriate length of the furnace block will affect the electrical efficiency and melting quality of the electric furnace, generally200 ~ 300mm block is suitable; 
　　 3,refractory materials  
The use of a suitable crucible can increase the melting rate, the quartz crucible is resistant to high temperatures, and is used with an intermediate frequency furnace. The metal material in the crucible generates heat by induction heating, which can reduce the heat transfer consumption. 
　　 4, improper operation causes high energy consumption  
The molten metal is overheated and the liquid is discharged from the furnace. Not only is it unsafe, it is also wrong in terms of energy consumption and melting process. Generally, the electric furnace sensor is divided into two parts. When the metal liquid level in the furnace is lower than half of the upper inductor, the upper inductor no longer has an induced current passing due to the resistance change, and all of the lower inductors are concentrated in the lower inductor to make the lower metal liquid. Overheating, flushing the furnace wall, the life of the lining drops sharply.
