Distribution of Magnetic Field in Electromagnetic Casting

The magnetic field in electromagnetic casting is investigated by experiment on a cold model of caster and numerical calculation. It is concluded that the coupled Circuit Method is effective for computation of magnetic field in EMC. The distribution of magnetic field is uniform around the ingot, except for corner regions. For two-strand EMC unit, the influence of magnetic field of one caster on another is negligible when distance between two casters exceeds 15cm.
