Physical Modeling of Steel Delivery during Thin Slab Continuous Casting

physical modeling of steel delivery during thin slab continuous casting

a full scale physical model of a thin slab caster with a four-hole design submerged entry nozzle (sen) was constructed. on the basis of the dimensionless reynolds and froude similitude criteria, the fluid flow in a full-scale model is similar to that of the actual system and, hence, the data obtained from the water model can be applied to the actual system. in order to determine the optimum ope...

Modeling of Steel Grade Transition in Continuous Slab Casting Processes

Mathematical models have been developed and applied to investigate the composition distributions that arise during steel grade changes in the continuous slab casting processes. Three-dimensional turbulent flow and transient mixing phenomena in the mold and the strand were calculated under conditions corresponding to a sudden change in grade. The composition distribution in the final slab was th...

J. Michalik, C. Kolmasiak Physical Modeling of Stresses during Continuous Casting of St3s Steel

During the continuous casting process, a nonstationary stress state forms in the metal, which is caused by a non-uniform temperature distribution, phase transitions, and the deformation of the stock in a semi-liquid state. Stresses occur also as a results of ferrostatic pressure and the deflection and straightening of the continuous casting. In addition to these phenomena, intensive processes o...
