ABSTRACT

Introduction Previously presented paper “Physical Modelling of Bath Homogenisation in Argon Stirred Ladle” was devoted to results of bath behaviour in the ladle model investigation during its gas argon bubbling realised by one or two stir elements situated in the ladle bottom. Study was performed with use of physical modelling method on a scale model 1 to 10. Development of homogenisation processes after start of bubbling was evaluated on the basis of electrical conductivity and temperature change, which were measured at three

points of the ladle volume by conductivity and temperature sensors. The executed works were realised for conditions of 180 tons steel ladles.
