A device for graduated dispensing and heating of molten metal

摘要

A device for the graduated dispensing and heating of molten metal which includes a centrifugal MHD pump in whose metal housing, and coaxial with it, is mounted a cylindrical working chamber communicating with the molten metal and subjected to the action of the magnetic field produced by the magnetic system. The cylindrical working chamber communicates with the reservoir by means of a connection sleeve, while the opening in the body of the cylindrical working chamber through which the molten metal evacuation sleeve communicates with the cylindrical working chamber is situated at a distance from the central longitudinal axis of this chamber that is greater than the opening in the body of the cylindrical working chamber through which the cylindrical working chamber is connected to the connection sleeve, and the interior cavity of the reservoir is divided by means of a partition into two intercommunicating cavities, and one of the cavities is connected to the outlet ends of the molten metal evacuation sleeve and the connection sleeve. Between the molten metal evacuation sleeve and the molten metal in the reservoir there is connected a direct current supply source. <IMAGE>
