In the present study, a numerical optimization program has been developed for predicting the optimal secondary cooling patterns in a continuous slab caster. Optimization strategy using Broydon-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (13FGS) method is carried out by determining the constant heat transfer coefficients in each spray zone, which could satisfy the casting conditions and metallurgical criteria specified by the engineer. From the present results, it is found that even a slight variation in the pouring temperature, allowable surface temperature, and casting speed could give rise to the changes in the cooling pattern throughout the spray zones. 相似文献

Bridgman directional solidification of investment castings is a key technology for the production of reliable and highly efficient gas turbine blades. In this paper, a mathematical model for three-dimensional (3D) simulation of solidification process of single crystal investment castings was developed based on basic heat transfer equations. Complex heat radiation among the multiple blade castings and the furnace wall was considered in the model. Temperature distribution and temperature gradient in superalloy investment castings of single blade and multiple ones were investigated, respectively. The calculated cooling curves were compared with the experimental results and agreed well with the latter. It is indicated that the unsymmetrical temperature distribution and curved liquid-solid interface caused by the circle distribution of multiple turbine blades are probably main reasons why the stray grain and other casting defects occur in the turbine blade. 相似文献

The objective of this study is to predict grain size and heat transfer coefficient at the metal–die interface during high pressure die casting process and solidification of the magnesium alloy AM60. Multiple runs of the commercial casting simulation package, ProCAST~(TM), were used to model the mold filling and solidification events employing a range of interfacial heat transfer coefficient values. The simulation results were used to estimate the centerline cooling curve at various locations through the casting. The centerline cooling curves, together with the die temperature and the thermodynamic properties of the alloy, were then used as inputs to compute the solution to the Stefan problem of a moving phase boundary,thereby providing the through-thickness cooling curves at each chosen location of the casting. Finally, the local cooling rate was used to calculate the resulting grain size via previously established relationships.The effects of die temperature, filling time and heat transfer coefficient on the grain structure in skin region and core region were quantitatively characterized. It was observed that the grain size of skin region strongly depends on above three factors whereas the grain size of core region shows dependence on the interfacial heat transfer coefficient and thickness of the samples. The grain size distribution from surface to center was estimated from the relationship between grain size and the predicted cooling rate.The prediction of grain size matches well with experimental results. A comparison of the predicted and experimentally determined grain size profiles enables the determination of the apparent interfacial heat transfer coefficient for different locations. 相似文献

A stochastic model coupled with transient calculations for the distributions of temperature, solute and velocity during the solidification of binary alloy is presented. The model can directly describe the evolution of both morphology and segregation during dendritic crystal growth. The model takes into account the curvature and growth anisotropy of dendritic crystals. Finite difference method is used to explicitly track the sharp solid liquid (S/L) interface on a fixed Cartesian grid. Two-dimensional mesoscopic calculations are performed to simulate the evolution of columnar and equiaxed dendritic morphologies of an AI-7 wt pct Si alloy. The effects of heat transfer coefficient on the evolution of both the dendrite morphology and segregation patterns during the solidification of binary alloys are analyzed. This model is applied to the solidification of small casting. Columnar-to-equiaxed transition is analyzed in detail. The effects of heat transfer coefficient on final casting structures are also studi 相似文献

In the current study, the transformation in the composition of non-metallic inclusions from the molten steel to the solidified steel was studied and the composition distribution of inclusions on the cross section of a linepine continuous casting slab was predicted. During cooling and solidification of the continuous casting strand, Al2O3-CaO inclusions reacted with the bulk steel and transformed to CaS-Al2O3-MgO-(CaO) ones in the continuous casting slab. The composition of inclusions on the cross section of the slab varied with locations due to the varied cooling rate. A model was established to predict the distribution of the composition of inclusions on the cross section of the continuous casting slab, coupling solidification and heat transfer of the continuous casting slab, the kinetic mass transfer of the dissolved elements in the solid steel, and thermodynamic calculation of inclusion transformation at different temperatures. The composition transformation of inclusions mainly occurred at the temperature between the liquidus and solidus of the linepipe steel. Inclusions were mainly CaS-Al2O3-MgO-(CaO) in slab center and were MgO-Al2O3-CaO-CaS within the subsurface of the slab. In the slab, the transformation fraction of inclusions was less than 10 % at corners while it reached 70 % at 50 mm below the surface of the slab. 相似文献

This paper considers two novel free boundary problems that emerge from modelling processes basic to steel manufacture. The first process concerns the spray cooling of hot steel sheet during the process of continuous casting. Here, an important practical consideration is the non-monotonicity of the measured heat transfer from the steel as a function of the steel temperature. In order to understand this phenomenon, a two-phase flow model is written down for the heating and vapourisation of the water spray. This model relies on a microscale analysis of droplet vapourisation and, in a steady state, it reduces to a coupled system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations for the spray temperature and water content. This system predicts the conditions for the existence or otherwise of a free boundary separating the two-phase region from a dry vapour layer close to the steel plate.The thickness of this vapour layer is determined by the solution of a generalised Stefan problem. The second process concerns the macroscopic modelling of pig .iron production in blast furnaces. In the simplest scenario, the blast furnace may be roughly divided into a porous solid region overlaying a hot high pressure gaseous zone. The gas reacts with the solid in a thin “intermediate region“ at the base of the solid region and it is in this intermediate region that the pig iron is produced. A free boundary model is proposed for the location of the intermediate region and its stability is investigated. 相似文献

Spiral plate heat exchanger is a traditional compact heat exchanger,and widely used in the occasion of the high heat transfer capacity requirements,such as waste heat recovery. In the situation of energy shortage and rapid development of heat transfer technology~(1-3),cylindrical,elliptical and rhombic spiral pile-honeycomb heat transfer models are established~(4-5). The internal flow and heat transfer are simulated by using CFD software FLUENT15. 0 and RNG k-ε turbulent model,and then the three models are analyzed. The results show that the secondary flow and vortex are induced again in the secondary honeycomb,which further increases the turbulence intensity of the fluid. The thickness of the boundary layer is reduced twice,and the heat transfer effect is better than that of the honeycomb spiral structure. The spiral pile-honeycomb model for the rhombus is better than the models of cylinder and ellipse in heat transfer performance. 相似文献

On numerical simulation of the continuous casting process 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
In this paper a steady-state nonlinear parabolic-type model, which simulates the multiphase heat transfer during solidification in continuous casting, is presented. An enthalpy formulation is used and we apply a FE-method in space and an implicit Euler method in time. A detailed solution algorithm is presented. We compute the temperature distributions in the strand when the boundary conditions (mold/spray cooling) on the strand surface are known. The numerical model gives thereby a good basis for the testing of new designs of continuous-casting machines. An application of the model to continuous casting of billets is presented. 相似文献

Cryogen spray cooling is applied to protect epidermis from thermal damage in laser dermatology. However, R134a shows insufficient cooling capacity for minimizing the laser energy absorption by melanin in darkly pigmented human skin. By contrast, the cooling capacity of R404A can be improved with a low boiling point. This study examined the temporal and spatial variations in surface heat transfer during R404A spray cooling using a straight-tube nozzle with an expansion chamber. Substitution of R134a with R404A increases the maximum heat flux by 19%, whereas introducing an expansion chamber enhances the maximum heat flux by 18%. Results indicate that surface heat transfer during R404A spraying exhibits intense temporal and spatial non-uniformity. A sub-region of uniform cooling with a radius of 2 mm appears around the spray center with a high transient heat flux above 300 kW/m2. This finding can help physicians precisely control the therapy area with enhanced laser energy. 相似文献

AbstractI t has been common practice to use mould withdrawal unidirectional solidification to produce single crystal castings. To grow single crystals successfully, it is important to control several solidification parameters, such as the morphology of the solidification front (solid/liquid interface), thermal gradient, and growth rate during solidification. It is the aim of this study to develop a solidification model that can predict such solidification parameters for various design and operating conditions. The solidification phenomena in the process modelled are basically controlled by two heat transfer mechanisms: conduction and radiation. A set of heat transfer equations and boundary conditions were employed to describe mathematically the heat transfer phenomena. Then the finite difference method was used numerically to solve these equations for specified boundary conditions to obtain the temperature distribution and temperature variation in the casting. The solidification parameters can subsequently be deduced from these temperature data. Several thin plate castings were tested using the model developed. The following design and operating conditions were evaluated: susceptor temperature (power input), withdrawal speed, changes of cross-sectional area in the casting, and geometrical arrangement of the casting tree.MST/1422 相似文献

Thermal history of droplets associated with gas atomization of melt has been investigated. A mathematical model, based on
classical theory of heterogeneous nucleation and volume separation of nucleants among droplets size distribution, is described
to predict undercooling of droplets. Newtonian heat flow condition coupled with velocity dependent heat transfer coefficient
is used to obtain cooling rate before and after nucleation of droplets. The results indicate that temperature profile of droplets
in the spray during recalescence, segregated and eutectic solidification regimes is dependent on their size and related undercooling.
The interface temperature during solidification of undercooled droplets rapidly approaches the liquidus temperature of the
alloy with a subsequent decrease in solid-liquid interface velocity. A comparison in cooling rates of atomized powder particles
estimated from secondary dendrite arm spacing measurements are observed to be closer to those predicted from the model during
segregated solidification regime of large size droplets. 相似文献
