Influence of the Design of Metal Receivers of Slab Continuous-Casting Machines on the Motion of Flow in the Tundish in the Case of Deviations of the Metal Stream from the Required Position. Part I. Statement of the Problem

We study the problem of evaluation of the influence of design of the metal receiver of a large-capacity tundish of slab continuous-casting machine on the decrease in the turbulence of flows in the case of deviation of the metal stream from the required position in the process of casting. We present...

Description
Summary:We study the problem of evaluation of the influence of design of the metal receiver of a large-capacity tundish of slab continuous-casting machine on the decrease in the turbulence of flows in the case of deviation of the metal stream from the required position in the process of casting. We present the results of computer simulations of various types of deviations from the target point of input for the metal stream flowing from the steel-teeming ladle into the tundish. We perform the comparison of the distributions of metal flows in tundishes with metal receivers of different designs. We also give recommendations concerning the possibilities of weakening of the turbulence of flows in the analyzed cases.
