Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided for eliminating axial porosity accompanied by impurity segregation arising at bulk crystallization of the axial zone of the liquid core of a continuous ingot.

Abstract: An inductor for the excitation of polyharmonic rotating magnetic fields (RMF) for controlling the crystalline structure of continuous ingots and castings in metallurgy and other foundry applications. The inductor design makes it possible to use standard sources of sinusoidal currents for generating polyharmonic RMF, and significantly increase cos ? of the inductor.

Abstract: Electromagnetic helical pump for high-temperature transportation of molten metal, comprising an explicit-pole or implicit-pole inductor exciting a rotating magnetic field (RMF), and a helical channel consisting of a thick-wall ceramic pipe with a quick-change helical core made of graphite or graphitized carbon. The pump can be used for transportation and batching of molten aluminum, magnesium, copper, etc. and their alloys.
