摘要
The zone refining technology is considered to be one of the most effective means of purifying lanthanum. However, it is tough to obtain the temperature distribution of the molten region through experimental methods. In this study, finite element analysis was used to establish the zone refining simulation model, and the impurity distribution of lanthanum after purification was investigated experimentally. Good agreement between the simulated and experimental results was obtained. The effects of the current and the frequency on the temperature distribution and the width of the region were studied using the simulation model. Through the zone refining experiment, the impurity distributions under different widths of molten region were revealed. Finally, the influence of molten region width on the limiting distribution was calculated by solving the limiting distribution equation.
