Abstract: A two-substance atomizing device for atomizing a fluid in a gas stream includes: a fluid supply branch including a nozzle orifice; a gas supply branch configured concentrically about the fluid supply branch; a concentric second gas branch branching from the gas supply branch and disposed upstream of the nozzle orifice, the nozzle orifice terminating in the gas supply branch; an axially symmetric mixing channel disposed in axial extension of the fluid supply branch and including a discharge orifice; an annular injection orifice in communication with the gas supply branch and disposed near the discharge orifice; and an adjustment device configured to adjust a cross section of the injection orifice.

Abstract: An inductive flow probe for measuring the flow velocity of a stream of liquid metal by insertion of the probe into the stream. The probe includes a probe tube having first and second regions therein, at least one permanent magnet disposed in the first region for providing a magnetic field with a direction substantially transverse to the direction of the stream, and a first pair of thermoelements positioned in the first region within the magnetic field. The invention further includes a second pair of thermoelements positioned in the second region outside the magnetic field and an evaluation circuit coupled to the first and second pairs of thermoelements. The evaluation circuit generates a temperature-compensated signal corresponding to the velocity of the stream of liquid metal.
