Modeling of an MHD Free Surface Problem Arising in CZ Crystal Growth
نویسنده
چکیده
A free surface problem arising in the Czochralski (CZ) crystal growth process is considered. A mathematical model accounting for the interaction of the molten material with applied and induced magnetic fields, temperature-induced convection, rotating boundaries and a free surface is given. The model described avoids some common simplifying assumptions and allows for more general geometries, and non axisymmetric (fully three-dimensional) flow fields. It accounts for the induced magnetic field and avoids nonrealistic idealized boundary conditions on the magnetic field.

Chemical reaction and radiation effects on MHD free convection flow through a porous medium bounded by a vertical surface with constant heat and mass flux
In the present paper, an analysis was carried out to investigate effects of radiation on a free convection flow bounded by a vertical surface embedded in a porous medium with constant suction velocity. It was under the influence of uniform magnetic field in the presence of a homogenous chemical reaction and viscous dissipation with constant heat and mass flux. The non-dimensional governing equa...

Modeling turbulent convection in the melt is the most di cult part of the simulation of the transport processes in the growth of large-diameter silicon crystals by the Czochralski (CZ) process. We report the application of hybrid nite-element/ nitevolume methods for the integrated modeling of turbulence in the melt and heat transfer by conduction, convection and radiation throughout the CZ syst...
