Abstract

In this work, methods of generating a flow of liquid metal using electromagnetic forces are studied, as well as the flows and the accompanying processes. The processes under consideration arise when modeling metallurgical technologies using setup developed for these purposes. The dependence of the shape of the crystallization front on the type of the traveling magnetic field in a rectangular cell is obtained. The dependence of the pressure drop on the flow rate of the liquid metal created by the conduction mechanism in a rectangular channel are found. The dependence of the productivity of a traveling field pump with a coaxial cylindrical channel on the frequency of the supply current are obtained.
