ANALYSIS OF MACROSEGREGATION FORMATION UNDER THE APPLICATION OF VARIOUS TYPES OF MAGNETIC FIELDS
The effect of a forced convection on the segregation of a binary alloy during the solidification is investigated by means of a columnar model of solidification. The model is based on an Euler-Euler two phase model with fixed solid phase coupled with a dendrite envelope model. The numerical model is applied on a Bridgman-type configuration with Al-Si and Pb-Sn alloys. During its solidification, the liquid phase is submitted to a forced convection which is driven by various types of magnetic fields, namely rotating magnetic fields, travelling magnetic fields and modulated travelling magnetic fields. The relative distribution and the intensity of the imposing electromagnetic force field are studied. It is shown that the flow patterns strongly influences the segregation characteristics. The change of segregation pattern comes from pressure distribution ahead of the growth interface. A certain period of modulation magnetic force can suppress the macrosegregation.
