Abstract
Hydrodynamical processes in the melt at Chokhralski single crystal growth in an axisymmetric ac magnetic field have been studied. Theoretical data were obtained by numerical solution of Navier-Stokes equations. A comparison with experimental results has been performed and a satisfactory agreement found. Figs 6. refs 7.
