| Abstract Scope |
The heat transfer at the ingot/mold interface plays an important role in the control of the ingot final properties. All along the interface, this transfer is time dependent and influenced by many factors, including the formation of an interfacial gap. In order to deepen our understanding of the mechanisms at work and validate the numerical models of the process, in-situ measurements are required. As such, surface temperature was measured at the outer surface of the Cu crucible during the remelting of titanium alloys in an industrial VAR furnace. For this purpose, an embedded, non-intrusive experimental apparatus has been designed to meet the safety requirements involved with the process. The results of the first experimental campaign are presented and discussed. |
