Design Parameter Variation of Highly Stressed, Bi-Conal Graphite Electrode Connections through Numerical Simulation
Abstract
The dissertation delves into the mediation of change effects between geometrical and materially technical design parameters of graphite electrode connections and the optimization of their combinations. The graphite electrodes are first described in their utility as process components in steel fabrication. The development of a three-dimensional Finite Elements-thread model (FEM) for large-format electrode connections is then discussed. The fourth chapter yields experiments on large-format graphite electrode trains, while the fifth endeavors a theoretical look at the experiments in consideration of both numerical and experimental tests. The sixth and final chapter contains design parameter variations for the optimization of the load behavior under mechanical burdens.
