    摘要: A computer implemented method (3000) for measuring the thickness, e, of a batch (2005) of materials floating on a pool (2006) of melt in an electric glass or stone melting furnace (1002). The method takes, as input data, a set (I3000) of timescale temperature maps, M[T] of the batch (2005) of materials, a range, R[Ts] of expected values for the stationary temperature, Ts, of the batch (2005), and a threshold value, σ, for the variation of temperature, ΔT, over time, Δt. The method provides, as output data, the spatial distribution (03000) of thicknesses of the batch (2005) over the surface thereof.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a system and a method for measuring the thickness of refractories comprising a heat flux measuring device for measuring the flow of heat flowing from a hot face to a cold face of the refractory, a core surrounded by a thermally insulating jacket comprising, in which the core conducts, between a first and a second face, heat from the hot face of the refractory to the cold face of the refractory; and a measuring apparatus configured to: continuously measure the temperature on the first face of the core and on the second face of the core; determining the heat flux flowing through the heat flow measuring device and determining the thickness of the refractory material by means of equivalent thermal conductivity of the refractory material.
