Abstract

•The 2D axisymmetric coupled numerical model was developed for metal evaporation process within the vacuum induction furnace.•The mathematical model was validated against the experimental data from industrial unit.•The rate of evaporation was successfully predicted for several operating conditions.•The surface temperature is a crucial parameter for the mass transport through the molten metal free surface.
