In the current research study, a mathematical model was developed to study the dissipation phenomena inside a new design of ladle shroud and its effects on flow patterns and inclusion removal rate. The New Ladle Shroud performance is evaluated in a conventional slab tundish, and the results are compared to different flow control arrangements. The velocity of the entry jet is decreased and the bulk flow is well controlled, the inclusion removal rate is improved, and compared to those arrangements where turbulence inhibitors are used.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
