Abstract
In order to analyse the molten steel flow in the mould, a 2D model including the mould and the SENwas established. The fluctuation of molten steel on the meniscus of the mould and the steel flow velocity field in the mould and nozzle were analyzed. The calculation results show that: (1) the steel flow velocity field in the mouldwas the highest in the nozzle area. When liquid steel flows out of the SEN, its flow velocity decreases gradually. (2) There were three regions flow in the mould. There were two reflux areas outside the nozzle, the dividing line is the free surface, and the other reflux area is 0.2 m∼0.9 m. The liquid steel within 0.9 m∼1.5 m flows vertically downward. (3) The free surface near the nozzle is high, while the free surface away from the nozzle is low. The free surface is the lowest at 0.1 m and the highest at 0.06 m.
