Abstract: Liquid metal degassing device comprising a chamber containing a liquid metal bath, a device for circulating a gas through a purification chamber and in that the purification chamber comprises a getter material configured to trap dihydrogen from the circulating gas. Method for degassing a liquid metal bath to reduce the hydrogen concentration of the liquid metal comprising the following steps a) Preparing a liquid metal bath, preferably an aluminum alloy b) Circulating a gas, c) Exchanging hydrogen from the circulating gas with the liquid metal such that the hydrogen dissolved in the liquid metal bath diffuses into the circulating gas and enriches the circulating gas with dihydrogen, d) Purifying the circulating gas enriched with dihydrogen in a purification chamber comprising a getter material configured to trap dihydrogen from the circulating gas.

Abstract: A method for casting a metal alloy in an ingot mold extending along a vertical axis, the horizontal section of the ingot mold being parallelepiped in shape. During casting, a travelling alternating magnetic field is applied to a liquid phase of the alloy, the magnetic field having a maximum amplitude propagating along an axis of propagation. Under the effect of the magnetic field, a Lorentz force is applied to the liquid phase of the alloy, such that a Lorentz force of maximum intensity propagates along the axis of propagation. The method includes modulating the maximum intensity of the Lorentz force propagating along the axis of propagation. This modulation is obtained by varying, over time, one or more parameters, referred to as force parameters, governing the Lorentz force. An ingot obtained by the method is also described.
