Abstract
The dynamic process of melting different materials in a cold crucible is being studied experimentally with parallel numerical modelling work. The numerical simulation uses a variety of complementing models: finite volume, integral equation and pseudo-spectral methods combined to achieve the accurate description of the dynamic melting process. Results show the temperature history of the melting process with a comparison of the experimental and computed heat losses in the various parts of the equipment. The free surface visual observations are compared to the numerically predicted surface shapes.
