Numerical simulation of electromagnetic and flow fields of TiAI melt under electric field
摘要
Abstract
This article aims at building an electromagnetic and fluid model, based on the Maxwell equations and Navier-Stokes equations, in TiAI melt under two electric fields. FEM (Finite Element Method) and APDL (ANSYS Parametric Design Language) were employed to perform the simulation, model setup, loading and problem solving. The melt in molds of same cross section area with different flakiness ratio (i.e. width/depth) under the load of sinusoidal current or pulse current was analyzed to obtain the distribution of electromagnetic field and flow field. The results show that the induced magnetic field occupies sufficiently the domain of the melt in the mold with a flakiness ratio of 5:1. The melt is driven bipolarly from the center in each electric field. It is also found that the pulse electric field actuates the TiAI melt to flow stronger than what the sinusoidal electric field does.关键词
