7.2.5 Meltmaster processing function (Cyclops 055L only)
Itisdiculttomakeavalidnon-contacttemperaturemeasurementona
streamofmoltenmetal.Thisisduetothelarge,rapidandrandomuctuations
thatareobservedintheradiationemittedfromthestream.
Thesevariationsoccurforanumberofreasons-notablycavitationonthe
streamsurfaceandemissionfromsparks,bothofwhichleadtoerroneously
highreadings,whereasobscurationbysmokewilldrasticallyreduceany
measuredvalues.
The MeltmasterprocessingfunctioninCyclops 055Lisdesignedspecically
forthismeasurement.Itreducestheinuenceoftheseuctuationsand
providesavalidestimationofthemetalstreamtemperature.
The Cyclops 055LissuppliedwiththeMeltmasterprocessingfunction
setasthedefaultmeasurementtype.Thismeansthatitisthehighlighted
