Abstract
A numerical model of heat transfer at vertical unidirectional crystallization (Bridgman technique) in a rotating magnetic field affecting the conducting liquid phase has been proposed. A possibility to control the phase interface shape as well as to maintain a flat or convex (toward the melt) interface shape during the process of crystallization has been demonstrated by applying a properly chosen set of the parameters of the process and of the intensity of the MHD influence.
