Visualization Study on the Droplet Evolution Behaviors in Electroslag Remelting Process by Superimposing a Transverse Static Magnetic Field
Journal: ISIJ International
Year: 2016

A transparent experimental model had been built to visualize the electroslag remelting (ESR) process. With the help of the transparent model, the evolution of the droplet happening at the tip of the consumable electrode was recorded clearly by a high-speed camera with the record frequency of 200 frames per second. Firstly, the physical simulations were done under different intensities of the transverse static magnetic field (TSMF) with a constant remelting current of 8 A. Then the experiments we
