MELT REPLENISHMENT SYSTEM FOR DENDRITIC WEB GROWTH

摘要

The solution replenishment system 1 for dendritic web growth of the present invention includes a fillet supply device 45 and an atmosphere gas supply device 61, 63, 65, 67, 69, 71 and 75. . The fillet feeder 45 distributes an equal amount of raw material in a pair of feed conduits 41 in communication with both ends of the melting furnace 7 to maintain the molten pool 5 at a constant level. The atmosphere gas supply also helps to maintain the flow in the feed conduit 41 and to maintain the thermal balance in the melt 5.
