Effects of Electromagnetic Vibration Frequencies on Microstructure and Tensile Properties of Al-15 Wt Pct Sn Alloy in Semi-continuous Casting Process

The electromagnetic vibration (EMV) generated by the action of the AC current and the magnetic field was applied in the crystallizer during the semi-continuous casting of the Al-15 wt pct Sn alloy. The influences of the electromagnetic vibration frequency (EMVF) on the metallographic structure, inverse segregation, and tensile properties were studied. The results indicated that the equiaxed grain ratios of the slabs were increased by decreasing...
