  Inclusion Removal Study in a Integrated Tundish-Nozzle-Mold System by CFD

  By Saúl García Hernández, Enif Gutiérrez, Airy-Zulema Corona-Villaseñor, Jose de Jesus Barreto, Rodolfo D. Morales

  Abstract: CFD modelling is a powerful tool to study the complex flow phenomena happening in each step of the continuous casting process; considering this, the current research shows the impact of tundish turbulent phenomena on fluid dynamics and steel cleanliness considering an integrated system: tundish, nozzle, and mold. The mathematical simulations consider 3D cartesian coordinates for the continuity and Navier-Stokes equations together with the turbulent realizable and the multiphase VOF models. …
