Influence of casting rate on the mixing process of steel in non-symmetric tundish

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The article presents the results of research aimed at determining the nature of changes in the mixing of liquid steel in asymmetrical tundish due to the increase in casting speed and the possibility of limiting the use of Flow Control Devices (FCD). The tests were carried out on the water model of the Continuous Steel Casting (CSC) device equipped with the tundish model. Four variants of casting speed were analyzed. The analysis of the obtained results was divided into two stages: qualitative analysis of flow and mixing (visualization process) and quantitative analysis of flow and mixing (by analysis of mixing curves-Residence Time Distribution (RTD) type F).
