In order to solve the high consumption problem of small capacity ladle furnace (LF), the operation principle and control method of the DC are and electroslag heating ladle furnace are introduced. With only one arcing electrode, the distance between the are and the wall of ladle is enlarged, and consequently the consumption of the ladle refractory is decreased. In the invention, a signal electrode is embedded in the refractory lining of the ladle, which contacts directly with the liquid steel and the ladle shell. Two graphite anode ends are submerged in the slag layer. The signal electrode is used as voltage reference during refining process. The electroslag voltage between anode end and liquid steel is applied to control the depth of anode end in the slag layer during the refining process with this ladle furnace.
