    摘要: A cold flake suppression method is provided. A molding device includes a sleeve, a tip, a sprue guide portion, a molding die, a sprue ring, a distributer, and a control device. The sprue guide portion includes a stamp portion, a runner portion, and a gate portion. The control device drives a supply device to slide the tip for molten metal to flow through the sleeve; sequentially calculates an amount of heat transfer changing continuously from the start of supply of molten metal until the tip slides to the position in FIG. 2, and calculates a total of the amounts as a total amount of heat transfer; and calculates a volume of the sprue guide portion based on information about the sprue guide portion input by an operator. Shapes of the sleeve and the sprue guide portion are determined to set a cold flake index equal to or less than 0.842.

    摘要: Provided is a method of, in ladle refining treatment of a molten steel, accurately estimating the molten steel temperature after the ladle refining treatment. An operation method of ladle refining treatment by which ladle refining treatment of a molten steel is performed while continuously measuring a molten steel temperature during operation of the ladle refining treatment of the molten steel comprises setting a time earlier than a scheduled ending time of the ladle refining treatment in a continuous measurement period of the molten steel temperature as a determination timing, and estimating the molten steel temperature at the scheduled ending time on the basis of a change with time of the molten steel temperature in continuous measured data of the molten steel temperature from a start of continuous measurement of the molten steel temperature to the determination timing.

    摘要: A measuring device includes a furnace, a draining vessel, a loader and a computing system for physical properties. The draining vessel with molten metal fluid is in the furnace. The loader accumulates the molten metal fluid from the draining vessel. The computing system includes a recording unit, transform unit, computing unit and processor. The recording unit records the vessel information. By the assumed physical parameters and the vessel information, the transform unit transforms a weight of the molten metal fluid in the loader into a first length criterion, and the computing unit simulates the flowing of the molten metal fluid to have a second length criterion. The processor minimizes the difference of the first and the second length criterion by changing the assumed physical parameters. The physical properties of the molten metal fluid are determined when the difference is minimized.

    摘要: An immersion sensor is configured to determine the content of a chemical element in molten metal. The immersion sensor has an auxiliary electrochemical cell extending from an interior surface into the internal volume of a sampling chamber. The sampling chamber can be integrally-formed in a sensor head or in a separate refractory structure. The immersion sensor may be configured for the flow of molten metal into the internal volume of the sampling chamber and into contact with the auxiliary electrochemical cell.

    摘要: The present invention discloses a method for producing high-purity magnesium by semi-continuous distillation, comprising the following steps of: (1) melting crude magnesium or recycled mixed metal containing magnesium containing various impurities in a melting boiler; (2) feeding the molten crude magnesium into a second boiler by a magnesium liquid delivery pump, and maintaining a temperature of 665° C. to 700° C.; (3) sucking the high-temperature magnesium liquid into a crude distillation column in vacuum by a magnetic liquid suction pipe that is inserted into the intermediate boiler and connected to the crude distillation column. Magnesium is condensed into liquid in the rectification column, then discharged from a liquid seal of the rectification column, and ingoted in a refined magnesium die to obtain high-purity magnesium products.
