2D numerical modeling of the processes during the alloying of the substrate surface metal layer is carried out. Heating, phase transition, heat and mass transfer in the molten metal, solidification of the melt are considered with the aid the proposed mathematical model. Under study is the applicability of the high-frequency electromagnetic field impulse for metal heating and melting. The distribution of the electromagnetic energy in the metal is described by empirical formulas. According to the results of numerical experiments, the flow structure in the melt and distribution of the alloying substances is evaluated.
