It is shown that electromagnetic field (EMF) has an important effect on the macrosegregation of centrifugal casting specimen of Al-7%Si alloy in two respects: one is that there exists always a kind of convection in the liquid in front of the S/L interface caused by effect ofthe electromagnetic force; the other is that different atomic clusters of solidparticles with different physical characteristics are subjected to quite different electromagnetic (Lorentz) force. Therefore, their movements get changed. In addition, the formation process of a complex band structure consisting of primary α-Al dendrites and (α-Al+β-Si) eutectics in hypoeutectic Al-Si alloys during EMCC and the effect of EMF are discussed.展开更多

On the basis of the results,coupled with local area magnification, the nucleation and growth of primary α phase of Al 7%Si were simulated. Relating the growth process of α phase of Al 7%Si alloy in space with structures of a sample section, the morphology and precipitating process of primary α phase of Al 7%Si alloy was simulated. The results are in good agreement with those obtained experimentally.展开更多
