Fluid flow, heat transfer and solidification of steel in the mold are so complex but crucial, determining the surface quality of the continuous casting slab. In the current study, a 2D numerical model was established by Fluent software to simulate the fluid flow, heat transfer and solidification of the steel in the mold. The VOF model and k-ε model were applied to simulate the flow field of the three phases(steel, slag and air), and solidification model was used to simulate the solidification process. The phenomena at the meniscus were also explored through interfacial tension between the liquid steel and slag as well as the mold oscillation. The model included a 20 mm thick mold to clarify the heat transfer and the temperature distribution of the mold. The simulation results show that the liquid steel flows as upper backflow and lower backflow in the mold, and that a small circulation forms at the meniscus. The liquid slag flows away from the corner at the meniscus or infiltrates into the gap between the mold and the shell with the mold oscillating at the negative strip stage or at the positive strip stage. The simulated pitch and the depth of oscillation marks approximate to the theoretical pitch and measured depth on the slab. 相似文献

Heat transfer during the solidification of an Al-Cu-Si alloy (LM4) and commercial pure tin in single steel, graphite, and
graphite-lined metallic (composite) molds was investigated. Experiments were carried out at three different superheats. In
the case of composite molds, the effect of the thickness of the graphite lining and the outer wall on heat transfer was studied.
Temperatures at known locations inside the mold and casting were used to solve the Fourier heat conduction equation inversely
to yield the casting/mold interfacial heat flux transients. Increased melt superheats and higher thermal conductivity of the
mold material led to an increase in the peak heat flux at the metal/mold interface. Factorial experiments indicated that the
mold material had a significant effect on the peak heat flux at the 5% level of significance. The ratio of graphite lining
to outer steel wall and superheat had a significant effect on the peak heat flux in significance range varying between 5 and
25%. A heat flux model was proposed to estimate the maximum heat flux transients at different superheat levels of 25 to 75
°C for any metal/mold combinations having a thermal diffusivity ratio (α
R) varying between 0.25 and 6.96. The heat flow models could be used to estimate interfacial heat flux transients from the
thermophysical properties of the mold and cast materials and the melt superheat. Metallographic analysis indicated finer microstructures
for castings poured at increased melt superheats and cast in high-thermal diffusivity molds. 相似文献

As one of the key boundary conditions during casting solidification process, the interfacial heat transfer coefficient (IHTC) affects the temperature variation and distribution. Based on the improved nonlinear estimation method (NEM), thermal measurements near both bottom and lateral metal-mold interfaces throughout A356 gravity casting process were carried out and applied to solving the inverse heat conduction problem (IHCP). Finite element method (FEM) is employed for modeling transient thermal fields implementing a developed NEM interface program to quantify transient IHTCs. It is found that IHTCs at the lateral interface become stable after the volumetric shrinkage of casting while those of the bottom interface reach the steady period once a surface layer has solidified. The stable value of bottom IHTCs is 750 W/(m2·°C), which is approximately 3 times that at the lateral interface. Further analysis of the interplay between spatial IHTCs and observed surface morphology reveals that spatial heat transfer across casting-mold interfaces is the direct result of different interface evolution during solidification process. 相似文献

The present work focuses on the relationships between solidification thermal parameters and the dendritic microstructure of an AISI 304 stainless steel solidified both in a strip casting pilot equipment (twin-roll) and in a directional solidification simulator. Experimental studies were conducted with a stainless steel strip casting obtained in a twin-roll continuous caster pilot equipment and in samples solidified in a directional solidification simulator with two different melt superheats. In both cases, the surface of the substrates was similar, with mean surface roughness of about 0.3 μm. After solidification, the specimens were cut at different positions from the metal/mold interface and etched for metallographic examination. An empirical equation from the literature relating secondary dendrite arm spacing and cooling rates was used to demonstrate the similarity of the cooling efficiency. The results have shown that the simulator can be used in the determination of transient metal/mold interface coefficients (hi) and in the preprogramming of the strip casting operational conditions as a function of roll materials and surface roughness. 相似文献

Interfacial heat transfer coefficients during casting solidification are often measured in experiments in which unidirectional heat transfer is assumed. Finite element modelling of the chill in these experiments has shown that the chill surface deforms elastically into a convex shape, the extent of which generally decreases with time. Examples from several different unidirectional solidification experiments are given. The deformation of the chill surface was also calculated with the assumption of nonuniform temperature boundary conditions. The deformation of the chill could be such that only in the central region of the casting-chill interface would the two surfaces be in contact, with a localised gap between them at their periphery. The extent of this deformation could be sufficient that heat transfer through the interface may not be unidirectional as assumed in the experiment and, depending on the location of the thermocouples placed close to the interface, the accuracy of the heat transfer coefficients calculated from the data collected at these points may therefore be affected. 相似文献

Heat transfer at the metal-die interface has a great influence on the solidification process and casting structure. As thin-wall components are extensively produced by high pressure die casting process(HPDC), the B390 alloy finger-plate casting was cast against an H13 steel die on a cold-chamber HPDC machine. The interfacial heat transfer behavior at different positions of the die was carefully studied using an inverse approach based on the temperature measurements inside the die. Furthermore, the filling process and the solidification rate in different finger-plates were also given to explain the distribution of interfacial heat flux(q) and interfacial heat transfer coefficient(h). Measurement results at the side of sprue indicates that qmax and hmax could reach 9.2 MW·m~(-2) and 64.3 kW ·m~(-2)·K~(-1), respectively. The simulation of melt flow in the die reveals that the thinnest(T_1) finger plate could accelerate the melt flow from 50 m·s~(-1) to 110 m·s~(-1). Due to this high velocity, the interfacial heat flux at the end of T_1 could firstly reach a highest value 7.92 MW·m~(-2) among the ends of T_n(n=2,3,4,5). In addition, the q_(max) and h_(max) values of T_2, T_4 and T_5 finger-plates increase with the increasing thickness of the finger plate. Finally, at the rapid decreasing stage of interfacial heat transfer coefficient(h), the decreasing rate of h has an exponential relationship with the increasing rate of solid fraction(f). 相似文献

Heat flow between the casting and the mould during solidification of three commercially pure metals, in graphite, steel and graphite lined steel moulds, was assessed using an inverse modelling technique. The analysis yielded the interfacial heat flux (q), heat transfer coefficient (h) and the surface temperatures of the casting and the mould during solidification of the casting. The peak heat flux was incorporated as a dimensionless number and modeled as a function of the thermal diffusivities of the casting and the mould materials. Heat flux transients were normalised with respect to the peak heat flux and modeled as a function of time. The heat flux model proposed was used to estimate the heat flux transients during solidification in graphite lined copper composite moulds. 相似文献

spraying is provided. This simulation includes the investigation of tem-perature evolution, coating solidification, fusion
and solidification in the substrate interfacial region, and particular features of the substrate-coating thermal interaction.
Optimal thermal conditions for forming the coating structure are estimated. The results obtained are used in another paper

The determination of quench severity and the quantification of the boundary conditions at the metal/quenchant interface would
be of considerable utility to the heat treating community. In the present work, an attempt has been made to determine the
quench severity of various quench media, including three vegetable oils, by the Grossmann Hardenability Factor method and
by estimation of heat flux transients by inverse modeling of heat conduction in 304 stainless steel quench probes. The heat
flux transient technique was found to be more accurate than the Grossmann technique in assessing the severity of quenching.
This finding was supported by the hardness data and microstructure obtained with the quenched steel specimens. New heat flux
parameters are proposed to assess the severity of quenching. The boundary heat flux transients during end quenching of AISI
1040 steel specimens were also estimated. The estimated heat flux transients could be used for modeling of heat transfer during
quenching. An attempt has also been made in the present work to assess the feasibility of three vegetable oils, namely coconut,
sunflower, and groundnut oils, as quenching media. Further investigation is required in this direction to explore the suitability
of these oils for industrial heat treating applications. This application would have immense environmental and economical
benefits. 相似文献
