Malinga ndi zoulutsira nkhani zakunja, dipatimenti yoona za mphamvu ya US posachedwapa yapereka ndalama zokwana madola 2 miliyoni kuti athandizire pa kafukufuku yemwe amatsogozedwa ndi O 'Malley, pulofesa ku Missouri University of Science and Technology.Kafukufukuyu, wotchedwa "IDEAS for Intelligent Dynamic Electric Arc Furnace Consulting System Kuti Apititse Bwino Kugwiritsa Ntchito Magetsi a Electric Arc Furnaces," cholinga chake ndi kupititsa patsogolo kagwiritsidwe ntchito ka ng'anjo zamagetsi zamagetsi ndi kuchepetsa mpweya wa carbon.
Ma ng'anjo amagetsi amawononga magetsi ambiri kuti agwire ntchito, ndipo O 'Malley ndi gulu lake akufunafuna njira zatsopano zochepetsera mpweya wawo.Akugwira ntchito kuti akhazikitse njira yatsopano yoyendetsera ng'anjo ndikugwiritsa ntchito kachipangizo katsopano kamene kamapangitsa kuti ng'anjoyo igwire ntchito bwino kwambiri pakusintha.
Kafukufukuyu adagawika pang'onopang'ono m'magawo awiri: Mu gawo loyamba, gululo lidawunikira njira zopangira ng'anjo yamagetsi zomwe zidalipo pa mabwenzi awiri, Great River Steel Company ku Osceola, Arkansas, ndi
Birmingham Commercial Metals Company (CMC) ku Alabama, ndipo adapanga dongosolo la kafukufuku wopitilira.Panthawiyi, gulu lofufuza liyenera kusanthula zambiri za ndondomekoyi, kuphatikiza ma modules omwe alipo kale, kupanga ma modules atsopano olamulira, ndikupanga ndi kuyesa teknoloji yatsopano ya fiber optic sensing yopanga ng'anjo yamagetsi ya arc mu labotale.
Mu gawo lachiwiri, teknoloji yatsopano ya fiber-optic sensing idzayesedwa muzomera pamodzi ndi gawo latsopano lolamulira, kulowetsedwa kwa mphamvu ndi chitsanzo cha makhalidwe a slag ng'anjo.Ukadaulo watsopano wa fiber optic sensing upereka zida zatsopano zosinthira ma eAF, zomwe zimathandizira kuyang'ana bwino munthawi yeniyeni momwe eAF ikugwirira ntchito komanso momwe magwiridwe antchito amagwirira ntchito kuti apereke mayankho kwa wogwiritsa ntchito, kuwongolera mphamvu zamagetsi komanso kupanga, ndi kuchepetsa ndalama.
Anthu ena omwe akuchita nawo kafukufukuyu ndi Nucor Steel ndi Gerdau.
