Patent AU-4690689-A (AU)
Title: Purifying molten metal
Inventor: KEEGAN NEIL
IPC: C22B9/05
Filed: 1989-12-18
Abstract: The invention relates to a means of purifying molten metal, particularly steel, by the removal of impurities/inclusions during continuous casting. The molten metal (3) is passed in a tundish (1) through a vertical array of baffles (8) that are spaced apart transversely across the tundish to provide restricted flow channels (12). The baffles (8) may be flat boards or tiles (9a, 9b) and are preferably used in contact with a weir (7) and dam (10), upstream and downstream respectively of the baffles. The speed and direction of flow of the molten metal can thereby be controlled and directed to give more effective dwell time in contact with a surface covering layer (11) of flux.

Patent AU-6069586-A (AU)
Title: Fibre optic sensor and method of use
Inventor: SALOUR MICHAEL M
IPC: G01D5/26
Filed: 1986-07-30
Abstract: A fiber-optic system for measuring a desired environmental parameter, such as temperature, is disclosed. The system includes a fiber-optic sensing head that alters light of a prescribed frequency as a function of the environmental parameter to be measured. Light not of the prescribed frequency is not so altered. In a preferred embodiment of the fiber-­optic sensing head, a semiconductor material is positioned between two substantially parallel optical fibers at a distal end of the fibers. One fiber serves as in input channel and the other fiber serves as an output channel. Both fibers approach the semiconductor material from the same direction. Light channeled to the semiconductor material is reflected at the distal end of the input fiber so as to pass through the semiconductor material, and then is reflected again at the distal end of the output fiber so as to pass back out the output fiber. The semiconductor material absorbs the light of the prescribed frequency as a function of temperature. By monitoring the intensity of the light of the first frequency at the output channel, a measurement of the temperature to which the fiber-optic sensing head is subjected can be determined. To remove the influence of input light intensities, fiber attenuation, and the like, from the temperature measurement, lights of two frequencies, only one of which is the prescribed frequency, are selectively directed to an optical detector through the fiber-optic sensing head and through a separate fiber-­optic reference channel. The four measurements thus obtained at the optical detector -- prescribed frequency through sensing head, prescribed frequency through reference channel, non-prescribed frequency through sensing head, and non-prescribed frequency through reference channel -- are appropriately processed in order to generate a signal that has all variations or influences removed therefrom except the temperature variations of the sensing head.
