Numerical Simulation on Heat Transfer Phenomena in the Mold of a Slab Continuous Casting
During the continuous casting of steel,the heat transfer phenomena in the mold are crucial but complex.The meniscus solidification has a direct effect on the surface quality of the solidified steel slab,especially the subsurface hooks which can capture inclusions and bubbles.In the current paper,a model was developed to better understand the heat transfer in the mold.The fluid flow of the molten steel in the mold,the heat transfer from the molten steel to the cooling water in the copper plate of the mold and the shrinkage of the steel shell were considered.The temperature of mold copper plate and steel and the shell thickness at different casting conditions were calculated.The depth of the hooks forming at the meniscus was etched and measured.A lower flow rate of the cooling water in the mold favored a thinner solidified shell,a higher shell temperature and a higher mold temperature.The cooling intensity of the mold had a great effect on the size of hooks.
