  • Patent number: 4323383
    Abstract: A method and a system for uniformly heating a glass stream flowing in the feeder of a glass melting furnace wherein power or energy is supplied through the electrodes immersed in the glass melt and wherein the temperature of the glass stream is continuously detected, has the current flowing between cooperating electrodes maintained constant independently of the resistance defined by the glass melt by controlling the voltage as long as the temperature of the glass stream does not deviate from predetermined limits and the current flow of at least a number of electrodes positioned at the inlet of the feeder are controlled to compensate for temperature variations when the tolerable deviation limit has been exceeded.
