Method and apparatus for flow control in electroslag refining process
TL;DR: In this paper, a method of electroslag refining of metal is described, in which the unrefined metal is first melted at the upper surface of the refining slag and the refined metal in the form if droplets is refined as it passes through the molten slag.
