Abstract

The radial position of OiSF-ring has been meaningful data in industry. Thus it's position was calculated by application of (V/G)/sub crit/ = 0.138 ㎟/minK and point defect dynamics for industrial scale grower with various pull rates. After the calculation, compared with experimental result. OiSF-ring diameters expected with calculation were good agreement with experimental results. In order to show validity of the predicted temperature distribution using STHAMAS which is one of the global simulator for Cz crystal growing, temperature was measured along the axis of crystal using thermocouples, and compared with the calculated temperature. We found the effective thermal conductivity K/sub m/ (r) which gives in accordance with the temperature distribution at the axis of crystal and crystal/melt interface shape between experimental and computational results. Therefore, effective thermal conductivity K/sub m/ (r) was applied instead of solving melt convection problem.
