Definitions
- valve/pump in such a way that an effective pump or valve action is obtained on the melt in the outlet so that the tapping can be stopped or controlled effectively, for example regulated from a level or weight gauge in a casting ladle or intermediate ladle, for example in continuous casting (See the above-mentioned specification).
- This invention is a solution to this problem, amongst others, and is characterized in that the electromagnetic pump/valve is provided with one or more coils, the ratio between the pole distribution (1-) and the diameter (d) being-between 0.8- and2.0.
- FIG. 1 shows an outlet in a blast furnace, seen partly in section
- FIG. 2 a two-pole electromagnetic pump/valve.
- FIG. 2 shows an electromagnetic pump or valve for the transport of melt in the outflow direction (in cooperation with hydrostatic pressure) and the opposing melt tapping (in opposition to hydrostatic pressure).
- the pump consists of four part-coils A-D, two-phase fed. The pole distribution is shown at 1 and the coil diameter at d.
- FIG. 1 shows a blast furnace, steel furnace, ladle or other container 11 for melt having at least one tapping openingl2 at the bottom, for example in the form of upwardly directed pipes, surrounded by the electromagnetic, multiphase fed pump or valve 13, 14.
- tapping is to'be decreased the phase sequence and thus the moving field is directed in towards the container 11 (valve).
- this field is decreased or reversed and the melt in the outlet 12 is accelerated (pump) and tapping is carried out into a casting means near the arrow A (chill, casting mould, for example for continuous casting, intermediate ladle, for example provided with level gauge or scales, etc.).
- the multiphase coils 13 (one or more in number) of the electromagnetic pump/valve are given such pole distribution 1-, that the ratio between the pole distribution and the coil diameter (d) is 'r/d 0.8 2.0.
- pole distribution 1' and the diameter are clear from FIG. 2 which shows a two-pole, twophase fed electromagnetic pump.
- One phase is connected so that at every moment a plus and a minus partcoil (A, C) is obtained and the distance between their magnetic centres is 'r.
- the same is true for the other phase with its part-coils (B and D).
- the winding can be made more mixed or less and the pole number can be varied from two and upwards.
- the pump may have several consecutive coils to cover the required transport distance, in which case the coils are suitably multipole connected.
- the coils are surrounded in the conventional manner by one or more iron cores 14.
- the outlet is dimensioned so that its diameter, i.e., the diameter of the melt in this (not the same as d) is between 0.1 Hand 0.3 ⁇ E where p is the resistivity of the melt in ohm mm /m. (m is the length of melt in the outlet tube 12).
- an electrically conducting tube 15 is inserted be tween coils and tube (melt).
- currents are induced in this tube under the influence of the field from the coil(s) 13 so that this is heated and heat losses from the metal in the tube 12 (the pump) are counteracted.
- Means for regulating the speed of melt flowing out of a container comprising a multiphase electromagnetic valve pump arranged around an outlet in the container, said outlet being an upwardly directed tube, leading from the lower part of the container to a level below the highest possible melt level in the container, said valve pump being arranged around the tube and its coil being fed with multi-phase AC voltage with switchable phase sequence, the direction of the phase sequence being controlled from the output from measuring means for measuring the amount of melt, said valve pump comprising at least two sectioned coils, the ratio between the pole distributing ('r) of said coils and the diameter of the same (d) being between 0.8 and 2.0.
- the pump comprises several consecutively located coils to cover the required transport distance, the coils suitably being multi-pole connected.
