In FZ growth processes, the stability of the free surface is important in the production of single crystal silicon with high quality. To investigate the shape of the free surface in the FZ silicon crystal growth, a 3D numerical model that included gas and liquid phases was developed. In this present study, 3D Young-Laplacian equations have been solved using the Volume of Fluid (VOF) Model. Using this new model, we predicted the 3D shape of the free surface in FZ silicon crystal growth. The effect of magnetic pressure on shape of free surface has been considered. In particular, the free surface of the eccentric growth model, which could not be previously solved using the 2D Young-Laplacian equations, was solved using the VOF model. The calculation results are validated by the experimental results. (C) 2017 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
