CFD Analysis of Steel Flow in the Five-Strand Tundish at Different Casting Speeds
Original language description
This paper presents a research focused on the optimization of the steel flow in the tundish during the continuous casting process. The tundish is one of the most important technological parts of the casting machine. It primarily provides supplying steel during ladle change and steel distribution between casting strands. The tundish is the last reactor in which it is possible to influence the final quality and purity of the cast steel. A key element of this study is the use of numerical simulations to compare two turbulence models, namely k-epsilon and k-omega, at variable steel casting speeds. Simulations were performed in the software ANSYS Fluent, examining a total of six different variants with combinations of turbulence models and casting speeds. The aim of this paper is to gain a deeper understanding of the character of the steel flow and its effect on the quality of the resulting steel under different process conditions. Numerical results were interpreted in schemes of the model. These schemes included the analysis of velocity vectors in different planes, the temperature distribution on the surface of the tundish, and the monitoring of the tundish walls wear.
