Abstract

Hot tear is one of the main defects during the aluminium casting process, and it usually occurs during solidification. In this work, the low frequency electromagnetic field was applied to study the effects of low frequency electromagnetic field on hot tear during the conventional hot-top casting process. The results show that under the effect of the low frequency electromagnetic field, the structure of the ingot is refined, the flow direction is changed, and the depth of the sump becomes shallow. All these factors can decrease the hot tear susceptibility.
