| Summary: | Surface tension is one of important physical features of melt alloy. Many properties of melt alloy, such as graphite shape of cast iron and modified microstructure of aluminum alloy, can be evaluated by means of surface tension. In order to evaluate and control the melt quality in-situ melting operation, the authors advanced a new method and developed an automatic device for fast measuring surface tension of melt alloy and applied it to the practice of rapid identifying graphite shape of cast iron. In this paper, the principle of fast measuring surface tension, the construction of the automatic measurement device and the examples of evaluating graphite shape of cast iron based on the new method and device are discussed.
