Fig.1. Application principle of Lorentz force velocimetry (LFV) (Due to the distribution of magnetic field (B0) in the flowing molten metal, eddy current generated by electromagnetic induction between magnetic field and the molten metal, the Lorentz force (Fl) which brakes the molten metal is produced by the induction between the eddy current and the moving liquid (with the velocity of v), and the permanent magnet (PM) is also subjected to a force (Fm) in the same magnitude and the opposite direction)
