The Experiences with a Travelling Magnetic Field (TMF) Stirrer

Article Preview

Abstract:

An experimental stirring unit (inductor) using travelling magnetic field was tested for developing a solidification facility equipped with a magnetic stirrer. The investigations were performed by using an Sn50Pb alloy at temperature of 230°C. In the course of the experiments, the magnetic pressure developing in the metallic melt, the flow velocity of melt and the loss of flow were investigated using the TMF inductor.
