  • Thermo-mechanical modelling of continuous casting primary zones [Elektronski vir]
    Halilovič, Miroslav ; Mole, Nikolaj ; Štok, Boris
    The aim of this work is to present a modelling approach to thermo-mechanical analysis of the solidifying shell in the primary zone, as met in thin slab continuous casting process with the mould of ... non-constant cross-section subjected to oscillation. The thermo-mechanical problem considered in the Eulerian reference frame is treated as uncoupled, with the temperature and stress-strain fields being steady-state and cyclic steady-state, respectively. For validation of the developed numerical model the respective process simulation results are compared with the available measurements. Considering that great capability of the model in achieving a better physical insight into the complex thermo-mechanical behaviour in continuous casting is confirmed, the model can be used not only for direct analysis purposes, but above all for an advanced technology design involving a process parameters prescription and the mould's internal geometry determination, as well as corresponding optimization tasks.
