Use of conducting crucibles in medium-frequency induction melting of non-ferrous metals
thesis
posted on 2018-01-15, 10:04 authored by Mohammad R. KargahiCarbon-bonded silicon carbide and clay-bonded graphite crucibles are used
in non-ferrous induction melting furnaces. Silicon carbide crucibles
especially have encountered premature failure when used at high power
densities and operating frequencies. This is thought to be related to
their non-uniform properties. To gain a more thorough understanding of
the problem, an equivalent circuit analysis has been applied to the
composite load of crucible and metal charge. [Continues.]
