Analysis of flow field and temperature distribution in compact strip production casting process

A three-dimensional finite difference model has been formulated, using the commercial code CFX4, to describe the fluid flow and heat transfer in the funnel mould and secondary cooling segment of the compact strip production (CSP) casting process. Through simulation and computation with the establish...

Summary:A three-dimensional finite difference model has been formulated, using the commercial code CFX4, to describe the fluid flow and heat transfer in the funnel mould and secondary cooling segment of the compact strip production (CSP) casting process. Through simulation and computation with the established simulation model, influences of the factors such as casting speed, casting superheat, immersion depth of submerged entrance nozzle, amount of cooling water in the secondary cooling segment on flow field and temperature field in the funnel mould and secondary cooling segment of CSP technology were analysed.
