Water Model Experiments on Surface Flow Velocity of Molten Steel in Slab Caster Mold

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on the slab caster mold of ChengGang Company as prototype, the water model with 1:1 scale was used to study the effects of casting speed、nozzle port angle、immersion depth、bottom structure、mold width and other parameters on the surface flow velocity of liquid steel in slab caster mold. The results show that the effect of casting speed is biggest and with increase in the casting speed, the surface flow velocity of liquid steel is prominently increased, when the mold width at 1650mm, the surface flow velocity from 0.04m/s to 0.1m/s with the casting speed from 0.7m/min increased to 1.4m/min
