Abstract

AbstractThe electroslag remelting (ESR) process has been effectively applied to produce high grade special steels and super alloys based on the controllable solidification and chemical refining process. Due to the difficulties of precise measurements in a high temperature environment and the excessive expenses, mathematical models have been more and more attractive in terms of investigating the transport phenomena in ESR process. In this paper, the numerical models for different ESR processes made by our lab in last decade have been introduced. The first topic deals with traditional ESR process predicting the relationship between operating parameters and metallurgical parameters of interest. The second topic is concerning the new ESR technology process including ESR with current-conductive mould (CCM), ESR hollow ingot technology, electroslag casting with liquid metal(ESC LM), and so on. Finally, the numerical simulation of solidification microstructure with multi-scale model is presented, which reveals the formation mechanism of microstructure.
