The oscillations of the mass velocity of melting during cyclic electroslag remelting of ChS-82 steel ingots under laboratory and industrial conditions are studied. The data on the mass velocity, the remelting current, and the furnace voltage that form by an automatic control system during the process in the form of electronic tables are processed. An analysis of these data demonstrates that the oscillations of these parameters that accompany melting substantially affect the ingot quality.
