Induction furnaces that ensure contact less control of electromagnetic (EM) stirring, molten metal free surface and temperature are widely applied in metallurgical industry. Requirements for the free surface shape and behaviour are defined by the different tasks of particular technological processes. In this article a new general approach for coupled 3D simulation of liquid metal flow, free surface dynamics and EM field in induction furnaces of various designs is presented.

In 2025, the Calderys Group celebrates its 160th anniversary, marking a legacy than began in 1865 in Pennsylvania through the origin of HWI, the brand of the Americas region of the Group.
Nippon Steel Corporation (“Nippon Steel”) and Sanyo Special Steel Co., Ltd. (“Sanyo Special Steel”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nippon Steel, were planning to consolidate the production of steel products and free forged products currently produced at Osaka Area of Kansai Works into Sanyo Special Steel in order to generate synergistic effects between the two companies.
20,000 revolutions per minute, 98 percent less CO₂, nearly 100 percent recycling rate – the GMH Group demonstrates how modern steel is revolutionizing electromobility. While electric motors place entirely new demands on strength and precision, Germany’s leading electric arc furnace steel producer responds with innovative materials and closed-loop systems. From rotor shafts to gear wheels: A behind-the-scenes look at an industry in transformation.
20.000 Umdrehungen pro Minute, 98 Prozent weniger CO₂, nahezu 100 Prozent Recyclingquote – die GMH Gruppe zeigt, wie moderner Stahl die Elektromobilität revolutioniert. Während E-Motoren völlig neue Anforderungen an Festigkeit und Präzision stellen, beantwortet Deutschlands führender Elektroofenstahl-Produzent mit innovativen Werkstoffen und geschlossenen Kreislaufsystemen. Von der Rotorwelle bis zum Getrieberad: Ein Blick hinter die Kulissen einer Industrie im Umbruch.
