Crystal growth melt flow control using magnetic fields

The physical modeling of crystal growth processes provides a tangible insight into key process flows. The numerical simulation of heat and mass transfer has great potential for optimizing the basic processes involved, especially the control of the flow by means of magnetic fields. By combining both approaches one may add up advantages and eliminate shortcomings.
