Optimization of Thermal Performance of CCM Mold

Аннотация

A physical simulation technique was used to study the processes of heat transfer between solidifying metal and CCM mold during continuous casting of steel. Variation trends have been established with respect to the amount of heat transferred from liquid metal to solidified crust, from billet surface to the mold tube, and from the mold tube to cooling water. Practical recommendations were suggested concerning an increase in heat transfer efficiency for the described stages of heat transfer from solidifying metal to cooling water.
