Effect of Operating Conditions on Inclusion of Die Steel during Electroslag Remelting

The current paper focuses on the effect of different operating conditions on the content of inclusions and cleanliness of remelting ingots. For these investigations, eight ingots were remelted with two slag amount and with two current intensity under otherwise comparable remelting conditions. A two-dimensional (2D) coupled mathematical model was employed to simulate the velocity field, solidification and inclusion motion for a system of...
