Grain Size and Macrosegregation Control of Large-Sized AA2219 Billets by Internal Electromagnetic Stirring in DC Casting

This work focuses on the effect of internal electromagnetic stirring (IEMS) on grain size and macrosegregation in direct-chill (DC) casting of an AA2219 billet with a diameter of 880 mm. The IEMS process has been applied to provide forced convection within the solidifying melt to achieve an efficien...
