Abstract
A single-phase model for Liquid Encapsulated Czochralski (LEC) melt fl ows of InP is used in conjunction with a new three-dimensional paralle l adaptive finite element scheme. Buoyancy, crystal rotation and cruci ble rotation are accounted for. The effect of the encapsulant rotation on the flow in the melt is accounted for by using a special boundary condition on the melt surface. The results of some quasi-steady simula tions are presented.
