Abstract
AbstractAn integrated, finite element‐based process model is presented for the prediction of full three‐dimensional flow, heat transfer, and solidification occurring in a continuous caster. Described in detail are the basic models for the analysis of turbulent flow and heat transfer in the liquid steel zone, in the zone of mixture of the liquid steel and solidified steel, and in the solidified zone. Then, the models are integrated to form a process model which can take into account the strong interdependence between the heat transfer behaviour and the flow behaviour. The capability of the process model to reveal the detailed aspects of turbulent flow, heat transfer, and solidification occurring in a continuous caster is demonstrated through a series of process simulations.
