Experiments on studying the rotation of slag and metal pools during the electroslag process in current-supplying mould were conducted. It was found that metal pool rotation can occur both due to the forces of friction from the rotating slag pool, and due to electromagnetic forces applied to the molten metal. Operating current, passing through the mould current-conducting section, has a decisive influence on generation of the rotating effect. 13 Ref., 1 Table, 3 Figures.
Keywords: rotation, slag and metal pools, electroslag process, current-supplying mould
