Review on Modeling and Simulation of Electroslag Remelting

The Electroslag Remelting (ESR) is an advanced technology for the production of high quality materials, for example, hot work tool steels or nickel base alloys. In the past years, several models are developed aiming to predict the way in which the operational parameters affect the structure and chemical composition of the final ESR ingot. Proper modeling of this process depends on the ability of the model to predict the Multiphysics resulting...
