The temperature distribution and the macrosegregation together with the eutectic lamellar spacing during solidification were measured under different magnetic fields. The results indicate that the compositions in the top and bottom portions of the sample are nearly the same and the segregation phenomenon is basically eliminated by SMF at an exciting current of 125 A. The morphology of the primary phase transforms from coarse dendrite to rosette or ellipsoidal equiaxed crystal and the spacing of the eutectic lamellar increases from 1.6 to 3.9 μm when the exciting current increases from 0 to 125 A. Moreover, if the exciting current is high enough, the forced fluid flow caused by SMF will enhance the process of transition from lamellar eutectic structure to anomalous rod-like one.展开更多

The corresponding central magnetic flux curves of the stirrer were measured by two different probes of the Tesla meter. Meanwhile, the mentioned spiral magnetic field electromagnetic stirrer was used, the effect of the two different magnetic fields on solidification of Sn-I 1% Sb binary alloy was studied,and the segregations and metallographic structures of the ingot samples were analyzed. The research results show that, with the same electromagnetic stirring parameters,the spiral magnetic field electromagnetic stirring is more effective in reducing the composition difference between the upper and lower parts of the ingot. The microstructure photos show that the grain size was more refined.展开更多
