A Solid/Liquid Stale Holding Transducer for Metallic Charges

A Solid/Liquid Stale Holding Transducer for Metallic Charges

In electroheat processes used in the metallurgical industries it is often desired to hold metallic charges at a temperature corresponding to their solid/liquid stat? interface. Similar requirements exist in the manufacture of chocolate, wax and similar products. A solid/liquid state sensing transduc...
