Abstract
The current article deals with the effect of turbulence modeling on inclusions transport and melt flow in an induction crucible furnace (ICF), which was employed in order to investigate the efficiency and the performance of a ceramic filter. Furthermore, the influence of the discrete random-walk dispersion model on the behavior of inclusions in the ICF was investigated. Different turbulence models were employed in order to predict the turbulent melt flow. The numerical results show that the flow field is affected by the turbulence modeling method. Moreover, the distribution of the turbulent kinetic energy depends considerably on the choice of the turbulence model. In addition, the turbulence model and dispersion model also affect the inclusion transport in the melt. The filtration rate is also affected by the choice of the turbulence model.
