Enhanced Refinement of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr Alloy via Internal Cooling with Annular Electromagnetic Stirring above the Liquidus Temperature

There are two critical stages of grain refinement during solidification: above and below the liquidus temperature. The key to improve the refinement potential is ensuring the nucleation sites precipitate in large quantities and dispersed in the melt above liquidus. In this work, internal cooling wit...
