Abstract
Carbon content is the controlling factor in operating a steel-making furnace, and fast and accurate carbon determinations can yield fuel and time savings that lower production costs. This article describes an expendable device incorporating a platinum: rhodium-platinum thermocouple which gives carbon contents extremely rapidly by thermal arrest point determination.
