  • Visualization of inclusions in a water model for continuous casting of steel [Elektronski vir]
    Perpar, Matjaž, strojnik ...
    With the water model, we experimentally confirmed the possibility of using a suspension to imitate the molten casting powder (slag) at the upper edge of the melt during the continuous casting of ... steel. The project requires that the slag particles do not leave the suspension layer during operation or that they return to it from the molten steel. It turns out that this is possible if the selected suspension particles mimic sufficiently large inclusions in the real system. The imitation of slag particles in a real system with suspension particles in water model is ensured by the equal terminal flotation velocities of both. Among the discussed polyethylene and cork particles, only cork particles, with a size of 0.2 mm to 0.5 mm, and a density of around 400 kg/m3, meet this condition. It was shown that the presented methodology could be used to estimate the proper position of the submerged entry nozzle.
