The simulated results were compared with experimental data from low load trials for a 400 kW inductor. The results,such as power factor and Joule heating power,show reasonable correlation with experimental data,and Joule heating rate reaches the maximum at the corners and the minimum at the centre of the cross-section area. With increasing relative permeability of iron core,length of coils,current frequency and resistivity of metal melt,the power factor and Joule heating power change. It is concluded that current frequency,the resistivity and length of the coil play a critical role in determining the power factor and Joule heating power,whereas relative permeability of the magnetic core shows no significant influence on them.展开更多

The thermal behavior under different densities of electric current and the effect of electric current at temperature of 780 oC using low density of electric current of 6.70 A/mm^2 on the B2+O lamellar microstructure were investigated for Ti2AlNb alloy sheet. The stable temperature denoted a balanced state between the Joule heat and the dissipation of heat including heat conduction, convection and radiation while the distribution of temperature was nonuniform. The highest temperatures of electric current heating samples increased as the density of electric current was elevated. In order to understand the specific effect of electric current on B2+O microstructure, heat treatment for microstructural homogeneity was introduced to this study. After that, according to the microstructural observations by common characterization techniques in the resistance-heating sample and the isothermal furnace-heating sample after homogenizing treatment, few significant differences in content and orientation of phases can be directly and explicitly found except the thermal effect from the applied electric current. The results will provide reference to this prospective forming and welding techniques and the application for Ti2AlNb alloys using resistance heating in the near future.展开更多

The results of numerical simulations, such as the temperature and Joule heating rate, show reasonable correlation with experimental data. The results indicate that Joule heating rate and the temperature reach the maximum at the comers and the minimum at the centre of the cross-section area. The temperature difference between the inlet and outlet is in an inverse proportion to mass transport. Joule heating rate and the temperature are directly proportional to power frequency. It is concluded that mass transport and power frequency play a critical role in determining the temperature regime and Joule heating rate, the relative permeability of the magnetic core shows no significant influence on temperature regime and Joule heating rate, when the relative permeability varies from 5 000 to 10 000.展开更多
