In order to better understand the casting process, we carried out global simulations of heat transfer to investigate the temperature distributions in furnace at 80 mm of insulation cage elevation and 40% of silicon melt solidification for multi-crystalline silicon (mc-Si) ingot using an industrial directional solidification furnace capable of producing 500 kg silicon ingot. The effect of heater position and the crystallization state of silicon melt on temperature distribution and interface shape are discussed as well to provide the essential knowledge for system optimization.
