Abstract

Metallurgical effect of electromagnetic brake (EMBR) could be influenced by many factors. A three-dimensional finite-volume mathematical model of region electromagnetic brake process has been built based on the theory of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD). Three-dimensional numerical simulation is studied by using the commercial software. The results from numerical simulation show that flow field in the mold can be effectively controlled by electromagnetic brake; electromagnetic force is the motive power of braking, the effects of EMBR is associated directly with the intensity magnitude of magnetic field, the reciprocal position between magnetic field and acting region and casting speed, etc.
