Abstract

An attempt has been made to study the precipitation behaviour of an Al-Pb alloy with respect to the unavoidable sedimented lead layer. The effect on the melt of Lorentz force on which is superimposed an external current is discussed briefly. This method could be further sophisticated to generate a higher volume fraction of heavier component in the matrix, by suitably adjusting the process parameters which influence the convection, and also by varying the applied external current density.
