Morphology Tailoring and Enhanced Inclusion Removal of Liquid Melt Film by Regulating the Magnetic Flux Density During Magnetic Controlled ESR Process

The current study focuses on the influences of magnetic flux density (MFD) on liquid melt film (LMF) morphology and inclusion removal during magnetic controlled electroslag remelting (MC-ESR) process (GCr15 bearing steel). The average thickness of LMF was reduced by 21.0, 33.0 and 41.3 pct, respectively, after applying a 35, 65 and 95 mT transverse static magnetic field (TSMF). This phenomenon can be attributed to the accelerated dynamic process...
