A new model of particle entrapment during continuous casting of steel is presented, which
includes the effects of multiphase flow from argon gas injection and thermal buoyancy from …

A new simple model of pressure and flow in the liquid-metal delivery system of continuous
casting operations with stopper-rod flow control, PFSR, is introduced. This one-dimensional …

Clogging in the submerged entry nozzle is a common concern during the continuous casting
of Al-killed steels, deteriorating the steel quality and impeding the continuity of mold …

Argon injection in ladle shrouds is customarily practiced during the teeming of liquid steel
from ladle to tundish to minimize air ingression and thereby restrict atmospheric oxidation of …

The deposition and accumulation of inclusions is the dominant mechanism in nozzle
clogging of the submerged entry nozzle. Previous modeling attempts of inclusion deposition …

A new model of particle entrapment during continuous casting of steel is presented, which
includes the effects of multiphase flow from argon gas injection and thermal buoyancy from …

In the continuous casting of steels, clogging of the submerged entry nozzle (SEN) is a widely
recognized and harmful phenomena. Over time, there is a build-up of material within the …

The design features of an improved manipulator designed to mechanize the maintenance of
cassette gates of steel-pouring ladles are described. The energy-force parameters of the …

A model of turbulent multiphase flow, heat transfer, and particle entrapment during
continuous casting of steel is presented. The model includes the top 7m of the vertical and …

In continuous casting of steel, it is very important to quantify the pressure distribution and
flow rate in the metal delivery system, which starts from the tundish, then into the Upper …
