Process for controlling the melting properties of casting powder used in continuous casting installations comprises determining the height of the liquid slag layer to the casting mirror, and using as a control parameter for powder supply

摘要

Process for controlling the melting properties of casting powder comprises determining the height of the liquid slag layer to the casting mirror, and using the measured slag height as a control parameter for the supply of the casting powder. An Independent claim is also included for a device for measuring the height of a slag layer to the casting mirror of a steel melt comprising electrically conducting electrodes (7, 8) impinged with an electrical current or electrical voltage and an evaluating unit.
