  • Soft-contact Electromagnetic Continuous Casting for Steel
    Hot Working Technology, 2005
    Co-Authors: Wang Hong-ming, Ren Zhong-ming
    Abstract:

    It comprehensively presents the technology of soft-contact electromagnetic Continuous Casting for steel,which is an important approach for improving the surface quality of billet. Some unsolved key questions such as, the structure, the materials of mold, as well as, the parameters of electromagnetic field, are analyzed in order to apply this technique industrially in steel Continuous Casting. The new achievements including high-frequency amplitude-modulated magnetic field and mold oscillation-less electromagnetic Continuous Casting are also mentioned in this paper.

  • Continuous Casting of steel
    2001
    Co-Authors: Brian G. Thomas
    Abstract:

    Continuous Casting is used to solidify most of the 750 million tons of steel produced in the world every year. Like most commercial processes, Continuous Casting involves many complex interacting phenomena. Most previous advances have been based on empirical knowledge gained from experimentation with the process. To further optimize the design and improve the Continuous Casting process, mathematical models are becoming increasingly powerful tools to gain additional quantitative insight. The best models for this purpose are mechanistic models based on the fundamental laws and phenomena which govern the process, because they are more reliably extended beyond the range of data used to calibrate them.

  • mathematical modeling of fluid flow in Continuous Casting
    Isij International, 2001
    Co-Authors: Brian G. Thomas, Lifeng Zhang
    Abstract:

    Fluid flow is very important to quality in the Continuous Casting of steel. With the high cost of empirical investigation and the increasing power of computer hardware and software, mathematical modeling is becoming an important tool to understand fluid flow phenomena. This paper reviews recent developments in modeling phenomena related to fluid flow in the Continuous Casting mold region, and the resulting implications for improving the process. These phenomena include turbulent flow in the nozzle and mold, the transport of bubbles and inclusion particles, multi-phase flow phenomena, the effect of electromagnetic forces, heat transfer, interfacial phenomena and interactions between the steel surface and the slag layers, the transport of solute elements and segregation. The work summarized in this paper can help to provide direction for further modeling investigation of the Continuous Casting mold, and to improve understanding of this important process.

  • Clogging in Continuous Casting Nozzles
    1995
    Co-Authors: K. G. Rackers, Brian G. Thomas
    Abstract:

    Nozzle clogging is a serious productivity and qua lity problem in Continuous Casting. This work reviews the causes, effects, and solutions to cloggi ng in Continuous Casting nozzles. The results of a one-dimensional, steady state analysis of the heat loss from the molten steel stream through the nozzle wall are discussed. The analyses show that steel may freeze within the clog matrix for a relatively small clog buildup. The implication of this result on the mechanism of clog growth and on clogging mitigation techniques is discussed.
