title = "Modelling of solidification of continuously cast steel billets using finite element method",
abstract = "This paper presents actual computational possibilities and experiences from the modelling of qualitative parameters of continuously cast steel billets in ProCAST simulation software achieved during a solving of research projects with industrial partners. The ProCAST simulation programme is a part of the equipment of the {"}Laboratory of modelling of processes in liquid and solid phases{"} of the {"}Regional Materials Science and Technology Centre{"} at the Faculty of Metallurgy and Materials Engineering at the VSB - Technical University of Ostrava. In the paper, the list of the required results is reported and based on own practice, the suitable form of their post-processing is recommended. According to the required results for radial continuous casting of steel billets, the most appropriate way of the definition of the numerical model with a finite element mesh and computation procedure are described. Also, the problems with determination of the thermodynamic properties of materials are discussed.",
