W FeSiMg = Weight of FeSiMg (kg)
Only the cored wire process takes into account the weight of
molten Dl in the ladle. Other processes are influenced by the
fluctuation of weight of molten metal in the ladle.

case the time t will include this period also).
Final Magnesium before pouring depends on the level of S,
Zn and free oxygen in the iron (i.e. quality of charge material,
melting process etc.):
%Mg* final = MgS + MgO + MgZnO3 + MgX + free Mg
(* Spectro results always show total Mg, i.e. %Mg final.)
Use of Sorelmetal !
The best advantage of Sorelmetal versus other metallic
charges is illustrated in the table below.
