6 FOREWORD V FOREWORD In the foreword to his book "Inductive melting", published in 1966 by Verlag W. Girardet, Essen, which was to become the standard work of its day, K.-H. Brokmeier (Dr.-Ing.) wrote "Inductive melting is an application in a state of rapid development". He was right: Much progress has been made in the field of induction engineering since that was written more than 40 years ago. The time has therefore come to present - in summary form - the current state-of-the-art of this technology, still young and open to new developments, as it is deployed in manufacturing and processing metal. This is what this book sets out to do. The work focuses mainly on the metallurgical processes involved in melting, holding and pouring using induction systems. The fundamentals of inductive power transmission and the design of induction plants are described to the extent necessary to understand the production processes. The same applies to the sections on melting metallurgy, the targeted deployment of which is made possible by inductive melting. Based on these deliberations, the chapters on operating the systems themselves should be understandable and useful both for interested newcomers and for "old hands" in this field. In conclusion, a few personal notes: My thanks go to my first boss in Dortmund, Mr Karl-Heinz Brokmeier, to whom I primarily owe my knowledge of the interplays described in this book and who made my first steps in industry easy after many years at university, to Mr Franz Neumann, for all he taught me about cast iron metallurgy and to our technical head of the furnace business in Dortmund for many years, Mr Fritz Hegewaldt, who encouraged my positive attitude towards the engineering profession and to whom I owe most of my technical knowledge. I would furthermore like to thank the General Manager of ABP Induction Systems GmbH, Mr Wolfgang Andree, who made it possible for me to write this book and, above all, who has given me the opportunity to remain in daily contact with the interesting discipline of inductive melting and holding. In this context, I would also like to thank all my colleagues at ABP for all the pleasure I have gained in working together with you over the years. Last but not least, thanks go to my wife, Dorothee, whose mental support and technical writing skills have been invaluable in composing this book. May the reader find it useful. Dortmund 2009 Dr.-Ing. Erwin Dötsch
7 VI PREFACE PREFACE Inductive melting and holding is a major area of application in electro-thermal processes and one of the best-earning, high-performance sectors for inductive applications. After the rapid growth of inductive melting based on line frequency engineering in the 1960s, the technology enjoyed renewed growth in the 1980s in the wake of the development of suitable medium-frequency energy supplies. The importance of induction melting in iron foundries, in steel works and in metal works for non-ferrous applications continues to rise rapidly throughout the world. Yet the development of heavy-duty induction melting furnaces, executed both as induction crucible furnaces and as induction channel furnaces, also increases the risks in the works if the furnaces are not constructed and operated properly. Modern plants must furthermore fulfil the latest requirements of the iron, steel and non-ferrous industries, these needing to be considered in the design and construction of furnaces. The "energy efficiency" of process heating plants nowadays presents a new challenge for induction furnaces, for which new ideas have to be developed. The specialist literature available on these topics is extremely limited or has already become rather outdated. The expert knowledge required for designing and constructing induction furnaces is today preserved in the heads of a handful of specialists. The majority of these, however, will be retiring from professional life shortly, if they have not done so already. Although the theories of inductive melting are still taught at some universities or are even being further researched there, the applied practice of design and construction in consideration of the different metallurgical applications continues to be rather uncharted territory. I therefore particularly welcome the author's initiative to fill this gap. In this work, he presents the expert knowledge, in detail and oriented to practice, that he has gained through his many years of experience in the field of induction melting, both in plant construction and in the various areas of application. The book will provide excellent support not only for numerous specialists in the trade, but also for many students in their daily studies, in research and development and in practical applications. I would like to thank Vulkan Verlag, the publishers who agreed to print and distribute this important, ground-breaking work, and also ABP Induction Systems GmbH, which made its compilation possible. I hope that all established and up-and-coming engineers and students working in this field will profit greatly from this book. Prof. Dr.-Ing. Bernard Nacke Managing Director of the Institute for Electroprocess Engineering at Leibniz University in Hannover
