A coupled finite-element model, CON2D, has been developed to simulate temperature, stress, and shape development during the
continuous casting of steel, both in and below the mold. The model simulates a transverse section of the strand in generalized
plane strain as it moves down at the casting speed. It includes the effects of heat conduction, solidification, nonuniform
superheat dissipation due to turbulent fluid flow, mutual dependence of the heat transfer and shrinkage on the size of the
interfacial gap, the taper of the mold wall, and the thermal distortion of the mold. The stress model features an elastic-viscoplastic
creep constitutive equation that accounts for the different responses of the liquid, semisolid, delta-ferrite, and austenite
phases. Functions depending on temperature and composition are employed for properties such as thermal linear expansion. A
contact algorithm is used to prevent penetration of the shell into the mold wall due to the internal liquid pressure. An efficient
two-step algorithm is used to integrate these highly nonlinear equations. The model is validated with an analytical solution
for both temperature and stress in a solidifying slab. It is applied to simulate continuous casting of a 120 mm billet and
compares favorably with plant measurements of mold wall temperature, total heat removal, and shell thickness, including thinning
of the corner. The model is ready to investigate issues in continuous casting such as mold taper optimization, minimum shell
thickness to avoid breakouts, and maximum casting speed to avoid hot-tear crack formation due to submold bulging. 相似文献

Surface quality problems in continuous cast steel are greatly affected by heat transfer across the interfacial layers in the gap between the solidifying steel shell and the mold. An experimental apparatus has been constructed to measure temperatures in the steel, mold flux layers, and copper under conditions approximating those in continuous casting. The flux solidified in multiple layers similar to those observed from continuous casting molds and contained many gas bubbles. Flux conductivities average about 1.0 W/m·K and appear to evolve with time. Contact resistances at both interfaces are significant and average about 0.0015 m2·K/W. Flux crystallization appears to be the only significant effect of flux composition. The one glassy flux tested had much greater thermal conductivities, presumably due to radiation transport. Temperature and gap thickness had a negligible effect on the properties. These properties depend on the model used to extract them. They are being implemented into a mathematical model to simulate heat transfer in the mold, interface, and solidifying shell of a continuous slab-casting machine. 相似文献

Modeling superheat removal during continuous casting of steel slabs 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
To investigate superheat dissipation in a continuous slab casting machine, mathematical models have been developed to compute
fluid flow velocities, temperature distribution within the liquid pool, heat transfer to the inside of the solidifying shell,
and its effect on growth of the shell. Three-dimensional (3-D) velocity and heat-transfer predictions compare reasonably with
pre-vious experimental measurements and two-dimensional (2-D) calculations. The results indicate that the maximum heat input
to the shell occurs near the impingement point on the narrow face and confirm that most of the superheat is dissipated in
or just below the mold. Superheat tem-perature and casting speed have the most important and direct influence on heat flux.
The effects of other variables, including mold width, nozzle jet angle, and submergence depth, are also investigated. Calculated
heat flux profiles are then input to a one-dimensional (1-D) solidifi-cation model to calculate growth of the shell. Shell
thickness profiles down the wide and narrow faces are compared with the predictions of conventional heat conduction models
and available measurements. 相似文献

Mold-slag friction and fracture may cause heat-transfer variations in continuous casting, which leads to steel shell temperature
and stress variations, resulting in surface cracks. Analytical transient models of liquid slag flow and solid slag stress
have been coupled with a finite-difference model of heat transfer in the mold, gap, and steel shell to predict transient shear
stress, friction, slip, and fracture of the slag layers. The models are validated by comparing with numerical models and plant
measurements of mold friction. Using reported slag-fracture strength and time-temperature-transformation (TTT) diagrams, the
models are applied to study the effect of casting speed and mold-powder viscosity properties on slag-layer behavior between
the oscillating mold wall and the solidifying steel shell. The study finds that liquid-slag lubrication would produce negligible
stresses. A lower mold-slag consumption rate leads to high solid friction and results in solid-slag-layer fracture and movement
below a critical value. Crystalline slag tends to fracture near the meniscus and glassy slag tends to fracture near the mold
exit. A medium casting speed may be the safest to avoid slag fracture, due to its having the lowest critical lubrication consumption
rate. The high measured friction force in operating casters could be due to three sources: an intermittent moving solid slag
layer, excessive mold taper, or mold misalignment.

Thermal behavior of the solidifying shell in continuous casting mold is very important to final steel products.In the present work,one two-dimension transient thermal-mechanical finite element model was developed to simulate the thermal behavior of peritectic steel solidifying in slab continuous casting mold by using the sequential coupling method.In this model,the steel physical properties at high temperature was gotten from the micro-segregation model withδ/γtransformation in mushy zone,and the heat flux was obtained according to the displacement between the surface of solidifying shell and the hot face of mold as solidification contraction,the liquid-solid structure and distribution of mold flux,and the temperature distribution of slab surface and mold hot face,in addition,the rate-dependent elastic-viscoplastic constitutive equation was applied to account for the evolution of shell stress in the mold.With this model,the variation characteristics of surface temperature,heat flux, and growth of the solidifying shell corner,as well as the thickness distribution of the liquid flux,solidified flux,air gap and the corresponding thermal resistance were described. 相似文献

Three-dimensional (3-D) finite-element thermal-stress models have been developed to predict temperature, distortion, and residual
stress in the mold of continuous casters of thin steel slabs, comparing both funnel-shaped and parallel molds. The mold shape
and high casting speed leads to higher mold temperatures and shorter mold life than in conventional slab casters. This study
investigates heat flux and the effects of mold shape on distortion and cracking of the thin-slab mold. In Part I of this two-part
article, mold wall temperatures measured in the plant were analyzed to determine the corresponding heat-flux profiles in thin-slab
molds. This data was then used in an elastic-visco-plastic analysis to investigate the deformation of the molds in service
for the two different mold shapes. The model predictions of temperature and distortion during operation match plant observations.
During operation, the hot-face temperature reaches 580 °C and heat flux varies from 7 to 4.5 MW/m2 when casting at 3.6 m/min. The copper plates bend toward the steel, with a maximum outward distortion of about 0.3 mm. This
occurs just above the center of the wide faces and is smaller than the distortion of a conventional slab mold. 相似文献

Multiphase Flow and Thermo-Mechanical Behaviors of Solidifying Shell in Continuous Casting Mold 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The metallurgical phenomena occurring in the continuous casting mold have a significant influence on the performance and the quality of steel product. The multiphase flow phenomena of molten steel, steel/slag interface and gas bubbles in the slab continuous casting mold were described by numerical simulation, and the effect of electromagnetic brake (EMBR) and argon gas blowing on the process were investigated. The relationship between wavy fluctuation height near meniscus and the level fluctuation index F, which reflects the situation of mold flux entrapment, was clarified. Moreover, based on a microsegregation model of solute elements in mushy zone with δ/γ transformation and a thermo-mechanical coupling finite element model of shell solidification, the thermal and mechanical behaviors of solidifying shell including the dynamic distribution laws of air gap and mold flux, temperature and stress of shell in slab continuous casting mold were described. 相似文献

With the considerations of the behaviors of shell deformation, mold flux film and air gap dynamic distribution in shell/mold gap, a two dimensional slice-travel transient thermo-mechanical coupled model of simulation shell solidification in wide and thick slab continuous casting mold was developed by using the commercial program ANSYS. The evolutions of strand-mold system thermal behaviors, including the air gap formation and the mold flux film dynamical distribution in shell/mold gap and shell temperature field, and the evolutions of shell deformation and stress distribution of peritectic steel solidified in a 2120 mm wide and 266 mm thick slab continuous casting mold were analyzed. The results show that the air gap formation and the thick mold flux film distribution mainly concentrate in the regions 0–21 mm and 0–7 mm, 0–120 mm and 0–100 mm off the shell wide and narrow faces corners, and thus the hot spots are given rise to form in the regions 15–55 mm and 15–50 mm off the shell wide and narrow face corners. The shell server deformation occurs in the off-corners in the middle and lower parts of the mold. The stress evolution in shell surface is tensile stress, while that in shell solidification front is compressive stress. 相似文献

The mathematical model to compute the thermal evolution and solidification of thin slabs, previously presented in Part I of
this article, was used in combination with a three-dimensional (3-D) finite-element thermomechanical model to analyze how
actual operation conditions can lead to excessive deflection and jamming of the slab shell at the pinch rolls. The models
suggest that these phenomena arise from a sudden loss of control of the metallurgical length stemming from the coupling of
inappropriate steel superheats and casting velocities to deficient heat-extraction conditions at the mold or secondary cooling
system. The bulging deformation was calculated with an elastic and creep model that takes into account the temperature distribution
across the shell thickness and the different times that shell elements have to creep exposure, i.e., according to the time that rows of elements require to reach their current position in the casting direction at a given
casting speed. The last point was simulated by varying the duration of application of the ferrostatic load to the inside surface
of each row of elements. The conditions forecast by the models as being responsible for excessive bulging agree very well
with those present during the occurrence of these events in the plant. Since bulging after the last containment roll is a
major limitation to productivity, this article also presents a parametric evaluation of the casting-speed limits that two
compact-strip process (CSP) casters with different supported lengths may have as a function of steel superheat, mold heat-extraction
level, water flow rate of the spray and air-mist nozzles, and slab thickness. 相似文献

Flow and thermal behavior of the top surface flux/powder layers in continuous casting molds 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Steady-state finite-element models have been formulated to investigate the coupled fluid flow and thermal behavior of the top-surface flux layers in continuous casting of steel slabs. The three-dimensional (3-D) FIDAP model includes the shear stresses imposed on the flux/steel interface by flow velocities calculated in the molten steel pool. It also includes different temperature-dependent powder properties for solidification and melting. Good agreement between the 3-D model and experimental measurements was obtained. The shear forces, imposed by the steel surface motion toward the submerged entry nozzle (SEN), create a large recirculation zone in the liquid flux pool. Its depth increases with increasing casting speed, increasing liquid flux conductivity, and decreasing flux viscosity. For typical conditions, this zone contains almost 4 kg of flux, which contributes to an average residence time of about 2 minutes. Additionally, because the shear forces produced by the narrowface consumption and the steel flow oppose each other, the flow in the liquid flux layer separates at a location centered 200 mm from the narrowface wall. This flow separation depletes the liquid flux pool at this location and may contribute to generically poor feeding of the mold-strand gap there. As a further consequence, a relatively cold spot develops at the wideface mold wall near the separation point. This nonuniformity in the temperature distribution may result in nonuniform heat removal, and possibly nonuniform initial shell growth in the meniscus region along the wideface off-corner region. In this way, potential steel quality problems may be linked to flow in the liquid flux pool. 相似文献

The basicity of mold flux has been recognized to have a significant influence on the mold flux crystallization in continuous casting, which would in turn affect the heat-transfer rate between the solidified shell and mold. The research regarding the mold flux crystallization as well as its effect on the heat transfer has been conducted intensively. However, few studies have been developed to specify the effect of basicity introduced mold flux crystallization on the radiative heat transfer and interfacial thermal resistance in continuous casting. By using an infrared radiation emitter, a radiative heat flux was applied to a copper mold covered with a solid mold flux disk to simulate the heat-transfer phenomena in continuous casting. The crystallization behaviors of mold fluxes with different basicities and their impact on the radiative heat transfer were investigated dynamically. The interfacial thermal resistance between the solid mold flux and copper mold was also studied in this article. The results suggested that the basicity tends to enhance the mold flux crystallization, leading to the reduction of radiative heat-transfer rate and enlargement of interfacial thermal resistance. 相似文献

In this paper, mold simulator trials were firstly carried out to study the phenomena of the initial shell solidification of molten steel and the heat transfer across the initial shell to the infiltrated mold/shell slag film and mold. Second, a one-dimensional inverse heat transfer problem for solidification (1DITPS) was built to determine the temperature distribution and the heat transfer behavior through the solidifying shell from the measured shell thickness. Third, the mold wall temperature field was recovered by a 2DIHCP mathematical model from the measured in-mold wall temperatures. Finally, coupled with the measured slag film thickness and the calculations of 1DITPS and 2DIHCP, the thermal resistance and the thickness of liquid slag film in the vicinity of the meniscus were evaluated. The experiment results show that: the total mold/shell thermal resistance, the mold/slag interfacial thermal resistance, the liquid film thermal resistance, and the solid film thermal resistance is 8.0 to 14.9 × 10?4, 2.7 to 4.8 × 10?4, 1.5 to 4.6 × 10?4, and 3.9 to 6.8 × 10?4 m2 K/W, respectively. The percentage of mold/slag interfacial thermal resistance, liquid film thermal resistance, and solid film thermal resistance over the total mold/shell thermal resistance is 27.5 to 34.4, 17.2 to 34.0, and 38.5 to 48.8 pct, respectively. The ratio of radiation heat flux is around 14.1 to 51.9 pct in the liquid slag film. 相似文献
