Abstract

This research aimed at proposing a new type of magnetic field arrangement to suppress the meniscus fluctuation in slab continuous casting. The work was conducted by three dimensional (3D) numerical simulation and followed by an experiment validation. The results indicated that the maximum height of meniscus was decreased and the meniscus fluctuation was decreased significantly whilst the applied magnetic field was increased from 0 to 0.05 T. The surface velocity was not sensitive to the applied magnetic field magnitude to 0.05 T. The results obtained from the designed experiment had a good agreement with the simulation results: this is an indication of the effectiveness of the proposed magnetic field arrangement.
