Abstract: A temperature adjustment mold for adjusting a temperature of a preform that is injection-molded, has a bottomed shape, and is made of resin includes one or more adjusting portions that face a part of an outer peripheral surface of a body portion of the preform and locally heat a predetermined portion in a circumferential direction of the preform. The adjusting portion is disposed such that a gap is formed in the circumferential direction, and an attachment position is adjustable in the circumferential direction.

Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide an ingot having improvement of and a prevention of occurrence of segregation when electroslag remelting method is used for producing a large size ingot and a super alloy which is sensitive to segregation. According to the present invention, the electrode for electroslag remelting method has a hole formed along an axial direction in the core of an electrode. Therefore, the molten pool is made shallow so that flat and segregation is prevented from occurring. Consequently, an ESR ingot of good quality is accomplished with an excellent surface and is free from segregation. Moreover, an electrode melting rate is increasing and efficiency is improved.

Abstract: A process for producing a turbine rotor using an ingot in which segregation is prevented effectively when ESR is used to produce a large-sized ingot. A hole is formed along an axial direction in the core of an electrode. The molten pool is made shallow and flat and segregation is prevented from occurring. Consequently, an ESR ingot of good quality offering an excellent surface is obtainable as it is free from segregation. Moreover, an electrode melting rate is increased and efficiency is improved so that a high quality turbine can be manufactured from the ingot.
