Physical and Numerical Modeling of Exposed Slag Eye in Continuous Casting Mold using Euler–Euler Approach

Abstract: Gas injection through the submerged entry nozzle (SEN) into the continuous casting mold can be an effective approach for preventing SEN clogging and promoting the floatation of the non‐metallic inclusions. However, sometimes the exposed slag eyes due to gas injection appear on the top surface of the liquid slag layer, resulting in heat losses, re‐oxidation, and nitrogen pickup in the molten steel. An Eulerian multiphase‐flow model is developed to predict the argon‐steel‐slag three‐phase flow in a slab continuo… Show more

“…Many factors can influence the quality of the steel in the ingot casting process. For example, the filling rate affects macrosegregation, [ 1 ] a high mass flow rate during the teeming process flushes off small pieces of refractory, [ 2 ] high turbulence can cause mold flux entrapments, [ 3–5 ] and reoxidation during teeming can lead to the formation of inclusions. [ 6 ] In large ingots, gas bottom injection is used to improve the thermal and chemical homogenization.…”

“…Cho [4] used the 1:3 water model with the aid of a high-speed video camera and analytical models to investigate the gas pressure, initial bubble size, bubble descending velocity, bubble residence time, and bubble size distribution. Meanwhile, mathematical modeling has been developed to accurately simulate the mechanism of various defects, such as inclusions and the formation of oscillation marks [5][6][7][8][9][10]. Wu [7,8] considered the evolution of the solid shell, including a fully solidified strand and a partially solidified dendritic mushy zone, which strongly interacts with the turbulent flow and in the meantime is subject to continuous deformation due to the funnel-type mold.…”
