A method for controlling a melt process in an arc furnace and signal processing component, program code, and data medium for performing said method are provided. According to the method, sound signals or vibrations from the interior of the furnace container are captured by solid-borne sound sensors, from which characteristic values can be derived for the distribution of melting material, melt, and slag in the furnace fill. A characteristic value SM for thermal radiation impinging on the furnace wall of the container, a characteristic value M for the lumpiness of the melting material in the volume of furnace fill, and a characteristic value MM for the change to the portion of solid melting material contacting the furnace wall are generated in priority sequence. The energy distribution at the electrodes is changed by a control system analyzing the characteristic values in priority sequence, such that thermal load peaks are dampened or even completely prevented. To this end, the strand impedances stored as target values are modified. If the control is not sufficient, the thermal power of the arc is reduced as a subordinate means. A rapidly and reliably effective operating regime for the processes in the arc furnace can thereby be implemented. |
