Abstract

The paper describes a numerical simulation tool for heat and mass transfer processes in large diameter CZ crucibles under the influence of several non-rotating AC and CUSP magnetic fields. Such fields are expected to provide an additional means to influence the melt behaviour, particularly in the industrial growth of large diameter silicon crystals. The simulation tool is based on axisymmetric 2D models for the AC and CUSP magnetic fields in the whole CZ facility and turbulent hydrodynamics, temperature and mass transport in the melt under the influence of the electromagnetic fields. The simulation tool is verified by comparisons to experimental results from a laboratory CZ setup with eutectics InGaSn model melt.
