The theoretical aspects of refining technology are outlined. The design of the numerical model is described and discussed. The differences between real process conditions and numerical model limitations are mentioned. Based on the hypothesis and the results of numerical modelling, the most appropriate setting of the numerical model is recommended. Also, the possibilities of monitoring of degassing are explained. The results of numerical modelling allow to improve the refining technology of metal melts and to control the final quality under different boundary conditions, such as rotating speed, shape and position of rotating impeller, breakwaters and intensity of inert gas blowing through the impeller.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Numerical Modelling of Metal Melt Refining Process in Ladle With Rotating Impeller and Breakwaters}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/111335/PDF/AMM-2019-2-38-Svizelova.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2019.127595}, keywords={aluminium, Refining, numerical modelling, rotating impeller, degassing}, }
