Measurement of steel velocities in the mould
Steel velocity measurement in the mould has been carried out using a Karman vortex flowmeter. The sensor is based on Karman vortex streets, which occur when a flowing fluid encounters a fixed body. A linear relation exists between the velocity of the fluid flow and the shedding frequency of Karman's vortices, therefore by measuring the frequency, the velocity of the fluid flow can be calculated. The system consists of two consumable sensor rods, which are placed at either side of the SEN. With the end plates instrumented with additional thermocouples, it is possible to relate the differential velocity measurement to end plate temperatures.
