Electroslag Remelting Technology for Contemporary Engineering. Retrospection and New Possibilities

Аннотация

New methods are developed for managing the physical chemistry and structural uniformity of electroslag remelted (ESR) ingots with the aim of improving consumer properties for the most critical power generation objects, including atomic and heavy engineering, substantiation and practical verification of the principles of managing physicochemical, and thermophysical processes, approval of monitoring and control methods, and development on this basis of new areas for using ESR during manufacture of solid, hollow, and shaped ingots. Results of the work make it possible to the evaluate the ESR process afresh as an economic effective contemporary method for manufacture of high quality objects.
