Abstract

A new system for measuring densities of molten salt systems is described. The system consists of an accurate metal block furnace, the temperature of which can be changed linearly in time, a fused quartz tube containing quartz floats loaded with a ferromagnetic material, a differential transformer wound with platinum wire, an amplifier, a digital voltmeter, an interface, a paper tape punch, and a recorder. The advantages of the system are its ease of operation compared to other ''float'' methods, and the possibility of looking at highly colored melts and also melts having a high vapor pressure.
