The two-dimensional formulation and the methods of numerical experiments were used to analyze the peculiarities of the redistribution of lines of a uniform electric field in the volume of molten metal at the interface of nano-sized phases with conductivity different from that of the matrix. It was shown that the gradients of the electric and thermal fields are determined by the shape of the phase and the ratio of its conductivity and of that of the matrix. The analyzed surface effects are also determined by the location sector of the inclusion of the surface relative to the flow lines.
Keywords: melt, electric current treatment, nano-sized particle, crystallization ability, energy factors.
