METHOD FOR MEASUREMENT OF AMOUNT OF LIQUID METAL IN CASTING FURNACE

摘要

The invention relates to a method for measuring the amount of liquid metal contained in tiltable casting furnaces. It is established and maintained a reference curve for the amount of metal in the furnace as a function of the furnace tilting angle at a reference level for metal at the furnace outlet opening and that the amount of metal contained in the casting furnace at any furnace tilting angle during the casting process is read from the reference curve after correction due to deviation of actual metal level from the reference metal level.
