Numerical simulation and deposited experiment of MAG welding are carried out on the conditions of Electro-Magnetic Stirring (EMS) in this paper. Based on the research of EMS welding arc action, a simple EMS-MAG welding Gaussian distribution model using whole heat flux density is established, which MAG welding arc and droplet transfer are regarded as one integrated system. The important additional magnetic field parameter in EMS-MAG surfacing deposited welding is considered in this model. The computer-aided arc measurement system is used to analyze the effects of additional magnetic field in MAG welding. Effects of excitation current on welding penetration and width are analyzed by deposited experiments. Many deposited experiments are used to adjust model parameters and verify the simulation results. By defining key parameter and optimizing the model on the basis of experimental data, it can improve the simulation accuracy effectively. The results show that the established Gaussian distribution model can be used to simulate EMS-MAG welding process.

In the study three dimensions finite element mathematical model of MIG welding with longitudinal magnetic field was established. By ANSYS FEA software the temperature and other physical characteristics of the arc were obtained including the distributions of current density and arc pressure on the anode surface. The simulated results show that when the additional longitudinal magnetic field was introduced into welding process, the temperature of arc decreased remarkably and peak value of temperature changed from 16 950K to 13 700K at a welding current of 120A. Under the action of longitudinal magnetic field, on the one hand, heat flux density and current density at the anode surface decrease in the arc core and rise at the edge of arc, on the other hand, arc pressure decrease and arc potential increase.

This paper simulate the mode of metal transfer in MIG magnetic control welding by using CFD software FLUENT, establishing mathematical model based on fluid dynamics and electromagnetic theory, and simulate the form, grow and drop process of metal transfer with and without magnetic. Meanwhile, do experiments to confirm the simulate result, and it is well consistent with the experimental result.

Abstract. We investigate with the help of a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model how the large-scale topology of the magnetosphere develops for a constant interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) with different IMF clock angles and for an IMF By sign change during northward IMF. A detailed examination of the topological changes in the tail and the ionosphere for different IMF conditions shows a good agreement with observational results. The MHD simulations for different constant IMF clock angle cases show the expected field-line bending and tail twisting for nonzero IMF By. The tail becomes longer and at its tailward end stronger twisted for IMF Bz>∣By∣ than for IMF Bz

A numerical simulation study has been carried out to examine the effect of a static magnetic field on the solidification process of an alloy. A mathematical model, based on the continuum model, was developed for the computation of a transient double-diffusive fluid flow under Lorentz body force. The model includes conservation of mass and momentum, heat, species and electrical charge balance equations. The simulation domain was selected as a cavity filled with a metallic alloy and differentially heated, which may be taken as a Bridgman model domain used in the crystal growth process. The solution is carried out by using a Finite Volume Method. Study of the direction and the intensity of the applied magnetic field effects on stabilizing the double diffusive flow field were also carried out. Simulation results indicate that the use of a static, magnetic field in this growth setup is effective in suppressing natural convection in the solution.
