Abstract

An alginate hydrogel-based thin-film heat flux sensor for billet crystallizer includes an alginate hydrogel substrate. The alginate hydrogel substrate is configured in a U-shaped planar structure. The U-shaped planar structure includes a first side and a second side, and the first side is longer than the second side. An inner surface of the alginate hydrogel substrate is provided with a first film thermocouple and a second film thermocouple. The first film thermocouple is in crosslinking connection with the second film thermocouple.
