Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of electric brass melting, exploring its potential to revolutionize the nonferrous metal industry. Written in the early 20th century, it provides a comprehensive analysis of the technological landscape of its time, comparing various types of electric furnaces and their suitability for different brass alloys and production needs. The author, a leading expert in the field, meticulously documents the advantages and limitations of each furnace type, including the direct and indirect arc, contact resistance, reflected heat, vertical ring induction, and eddy current methods. He further examines the crucial factors influencing power consumption and metal loss, highlighting the importance of efficient heat transfer and metal circulation. The book also presents the author's pioneering research and development of a rocking electric brass furnace, a novel design aimed at addressing the challenges of melting alloys high in zinc. Through detailed accounts of laboratory experiments and comparisons with existing technologies, the author reveals the potential for this innovative furnace to reduce metal loss, increase efficiency, and improve working conditions in brass manufacturing. Ultimately, the book offers a valuable historical perspective on the early development of electric brass melting and the author's groundbreaking contributions to this field.
