Abstract

The article discusses the microstructure formation in aluminum-silicon alloy which are directionally solidified in a rotating magnetic field. Accordingly, aluminum-silicon7Mg (AlSi7Mg) alloys are used in order to produce high stressed automotive components such as engine frames and cylinder heads in foundry industry. Various processes have been used in order to investigate the microstructure formation in AlSi7Mg0.3 and AlSi7Mg0.6 alloys during directional solidification.
