Abstract

Numerical simulation is being increasingly used to improve the existing cooling systems. In order to attain highest quality strand, a two-dimensional dynamic mathematical heat transfer model of billet continuous casting of low carbon steel has been presented. This model can be used to compute the billet temperature distribution and shell thickness, especially it can be used to simulate the solidification process which is caused by frequently variational casting conditions. The fluctuation of measured temperature has been reduced to <10°C with thermal imaging system. The online model can monitor surface temperature and shell thickness in the casting process. So it provides the possibility for the online process control. For the validation of the dynamic model, a lot of billet surface temperature and shell thickness measurement were carried out on an actual casting machine. Finally, the dynamic model has been used for adjusting the operating parameters to improve the casting speed.
