Investigation of electromagnetic influence on the liquid heart of aluminium ingots at continuous casting in a direct chill mold

The mathematical model of system "inductor-ingot" for investigation electromagnetic process at the continuous casting of aluminum ingots in a direct chill mold is considered in this article. Calculation at various parameters of a power line is made, electromechanical characteristics of stirrer are found. The frequency range at which electromagnetic influence of an inductor on a liquid heart of an ingot is most effective is established. The results of mathematical and physical modeling which have shown reliability of mathematical model are compared.
