The present disclosure relates to the field of directional solidification, and in particular, to an apparatus, method, and process for directional solidification by liquid metal spraying enhanced cooling (LMSC). The process has the following beneficial effects: the apparatus of the present disclosure can regulate a solidification structure of a casting, refine a dendrite spacing, and reduce or avoid metallurgical defects, and can be used to prepare high-quality large-sized columnar/single crystal blades or other castings.

Apparatus, method, and process for directional solidification by liquid metal spraying enhanced cooling (LMSC)

A chaotic stirring device combining plasma arc smelting and permanent magnet including a furnace body; the furnace body is provided therein with a water-cooled copper crucible; the center of an upper surface of the water-cooled copper crucible is a groove for placing raw metals, and the water-cooled copper crucible is internally a hollow cavity; a return pipe is disposed directly below the groove in the hollow cavity; an upper end of the return pipe is vertical upward, and is horizontally provided with a filter screen; a spherical magnet is placed between the filter screen and the groove; one side of the water-cooled copper crucible is provided with a first water inlet pipe and a first water outlet pipe; the first water inlet pipe is connected to the hollow cavity, and the first water outlet pipe is connected to the bottom of the return pipe.
