Electromagnetic stirring (EMS) is a crucial method employed to enhance the quality of continuously cast steel by inducing flow within the liquid steel pool, thus promoting rotational motion. The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of EMS on solidification structure, morphology, and quality outcomes in steel casting. A comprehensive methodology, incorporating both qualitative and quantitative evaluation techniques, is utilized to measure the effects of EMS current and frequency on the characteristics of cast steel. Results indicate that optimally controlled EMS promotes improvements in solidification structure by increasing the equiaxed zone and reducing instances of macrosegregation and porosity. However, excessive stirring can induce negative segregation effects, leading to a phenomenon known as the white band in cast billets. The study illustrates that maintaining appropriate EMS settings is essential for effective homogenization of temperature and composition, which ultimately minimizes casting defects and enhances overall steel quality. The findings contribute valuable insights into the application of EMS in industrial processes, presenting a balance between stirring intensity and the quality of continuously cast steel products.
