Numerical Modeling of Macrosegregation during the Direct-Chill Casting of an Al alloy Billet

چکیده مقاله:
ABSTRACT Macrosegregation has been received high attention in the solidification modeling studies. In the present work, a numerical model was developed to predict the macrosegregation during the DC Casting of an Al-4.5wt%Cu billet. The mathematical model developed in this study consists of mass, momentum, energy and species conservation equations for a two-phase mixture of liquid and solid in an axisymmetric coordinates. The solution methodology is based on a standard Finite Volume Method. A new scheme called Semi-Implicit Method for Thermodynamically-Linked Equations (SIMTLE) was employed to link energy and species equations with phase diagram of the alloying system. The model was tested by experimental data extracted from an industrial scale DC caster and a relatively good agreement was obtained. It was concluded that a proper macrosegregation model needs two key features: a precise flow description in the two-phase regions and a capable efficient numerical scheme

Macrosegregation in direct chill (DC) continuous casting of an Al-4.5 wt pct Cu round ingot is numerically simulated. The model incorporates descriptions of heat transfer, solute redistribution, and melt convection on the system scale with microscopic relations for grain growth, solutal undercooling, and microsegregation. Simulations are conducted to study the effects of mushy zone permeability...
متن کاملEffect of casting speed on solidification structure and central macrosegregation during continuous casting of high-carbon rectangular billet
IntroductIon Solidification structure and macrosegregation have great influence on the quality of high carbon steels. Center segregation in high carbon steel results in a high concentrations of chemical components especially carbon element and has a great influence on the quality of wire rod [1-3]. Wire rod with center cementite network resulting from severe segregation not only shows low ducti...

1 ABSTRACT The continuous casting process is a widely used technique in modern steel plants. However, it is a complicated process that is not well understood. The objective of this research is to model the porosity and macrosegregation due to shrinkage related effects and solid deformation in the continuous casting of steel. Solid phase movements due to bulging and variable roll gap are modeled...
