Abstract

Rotating magnetic field (RMF) is used in horizontal continuous casting of CuNi10Fe1Mn alloy hollow billets. The result shows that the formerly inhomogeneous columnar grain macrostructure turns into homogeneous equiaxed grain with the application of RMF. The microstructure without RMF transforms from coarse and disordered dendrites to dense dendrites which have obvious orientation, while the microstructure with RMF from center to edge displays the evolution from spherical grains to disordered dendrites without orientation. The mechanical properties are improved remarkably.
