Theoretical analysis and experiments on self-designed electromagnetic separation indicates that primary needle-like β phases are difficult to separate; while primary α iron-rich phases can be separated by electromagnetic separation. Primary iron-rich phases have been removed from the melt successfully when the molten metal flows horizontally through separation channel. The iron content is reduced from 1.13% to 0.41%.展开更多

It is founded that flat pipe is superior to round pipe for the electromagnetic removal of inclusion, and DC current can get a higher removal efficiency than A C current due to absence of skin phenomenon. Under usual condition, a removal efficiency of 52% for 10μm inclusion or more than 92% for 20μm inclusion can be achieved by imposing a current density of 3×106A/m2 in a flat pipe.展开更多

It was found that velocity of spherical non metallic particles shares different functions in different Reynolds number range. The function of spherical particle’s velocity has been got by confirming the relationship between Reynolds number and resistance coefficient when Reynolds number is 0.2 ～10. For non spherical particles, the moving behavior is influenced by shape and orientation while spherical coefficient has nothing to do with the velocity of irregular particles. The influence of orientation of cuboid particle on the electromagnetic expulsive force has been indicated by numerical computation. [展开更多
