Abstract

Four distinct polyphased inductors for a travelling magnetic field and mounted with two inductors per large side on the large sides of the ingot mold, the inductors placed side by side on a same large side of the ingot mold and producing driving forces that push the molten metal, along the width of the ingot mold, both in the same direction, which is a direction opposite to that of the driving forces produced by the two inductors placed opposite on the other large side.
