Can a platinum-rhodium thermocouple with B division and an outer protective tube made of 99% corundum be inserted into molten steel at 1600 degrees Celsius for temperature measurement?

Aren’t there specialized thermocouples for measuring molten steel temperature? Since the poster works at Tiankang Instruments, has your company developed a new type of thermocouple for measuring molten steel?

Corundum tubes are prone to cracking when the temperature changes rapidly

No, the temperature transmission is slow; even if it’s possible to transmit that corundum, it will break. Moreover, these types of thermocouples cost tens of thousands of dollars each, so even wealthy people wouldn’t use them for temperature measurement. There are specialized rapid thermocouple sleeves for measuring molten iron and steel, with scale types generally being R or S

Stop talking nonsense – the molten steel thermocouple is made of tungsten-rhenium, model 325. This Tiankang person is probably a beginner; they are using Tiankang’s name to do sales. Do you guys in Tianchang produce these disposable thermocouples?

Calculate the psychological shadow area of the thermocouple
