Description

Effect of pulse magnetic field on two-phase zone of crystallizing metal has been investigated by methods of mathematical modelling in reference to vertical continuous casting machine. On the first step of the investigation electromagnetic problem for penetration of pulse magnetic field of cylindrical inductor in depth of liquid metal has been solved and distribution of electromagnetic forces in the melt has been obtained at different time moments. With a view to solve this problem combined method has been proposed. It contains boundary element method for description of field in surrounding air medium with inductor and also finite difference method for solving of the problem in molten metal. On the second step of the investigation with the help of obtained distribution of electrodynamic forces problem for acceleration of the melt has been solved. It is determined the optimal relation for pulse duration (in the case of single pulse), when melt velocity reaches its maximum value. Besides, it is shown that magnetic field may be used with the purpose of effect on crystallization zone through shell of solidified metal.
