abstract

in the present work, a meshless method called finite point method (fpm) is developed to simulate the solidification process of a continuously cast steel bloom in both primary and secondary cooling regions. the method is based on the use of a weighted least-square interpolation procedure. a transverse slice of the bloom moving at casting speed is considered as the computational domain and two dimensional heat transfer equations are solved in the computational domain. the present fpm-thermal analysis is coupled with the microsegregation model and used to investigate the capability of the fpm for use in hot tearing study. this hypothesis is verified by comparing surface temperatures simulated by both fpm (the method proposed in this study) and finite volume method (fvm) (the conventional method). also the simulated surface temperatures are compared with thermography measurements. the results reveal that the proposed fpm can be used successfully both for the simulation of steel bloom to determine its temperature field and for hot tearing study.

buckling of viscoelastic composite plates using the finite strip method

در سال های اخیر، تقاضای استفاده از تئوری خطی ویسکوالاستیسیته بیشتر شده است. با افزایش استفاده از کامپوزیت های پیشرفته در صنایع هوایی و همچنین استفاده روزافزون از مواد پلیمری، اهمیت روش های دقیق طراحی و تحلیل چنین ساختارهایی بیشتر شده است. این مواد جدید از خودشان رفتارهای مکانیکی ارائه می دهند که با تئوری های الاستیسیته و ویسکوزیته، نمی توان آن ها را توصیف کرد. این مواد، خواص ویسکوالاستیک دارند....

Mathematical Modeling of Heat Transfer for Steel Continuous Casting Process

     Heat transfer mechanisms and the solidification process are simulated for a continuous casting machine and the geometric shape of the liquid pool is predicted considering different conditions. A heat transfer and solidification model is described for the continuous casting of steel slabs. The model has been established on the basis of the technical conditions of the slab caster in the con...

Evaluation of Eulerian Two-Fluid Numerical Method for the Simulation of Heat Transfer in Fluidized Beds

Accurate modeling of fluidization and heat transfer phenomena in gas-solid fluidized beds is not solely dependent  on the particular selected numerical model and involved algorithms. In fact, choosing the right model for each specific operating condition, the correct implementation of each model, and the right choice of parameters and boundary conditions, determine the accuracy of the results i...
