文摘A new method and devices for the electromagnetic levitation melting of metallic samples with greater weights and axisymmetrically stabilized positions is presented in this paper.The new method is applying two homogeneous magnetic fields of different frequencies,whose field lines are in absence of a charge horizontally and reciprocally normal in order to exert electromagnetic lift forces also on the axis of the levitated sample.Therefore the weight of the charge can be increased and the charge can be drip- and leakage-free melted.The method can be used in a melting furnace with or without a cold protective wall,as well as for the coreless induction valves applied for flow rate control,e.g.in the continuous casting of molten metals.The applicability of the method was experimentally examined and proved by tests conducted with three types of laboratory setups.
