Abstract

Language:

The optimum condition for clean steel production in the tundish of a continuous casting process reactor can be obtained using numerical modelling. Five different arrangements of flow modifier in the form of impact pad systems deployed in an eight ton, delta shaped, and two strand bloom caster tundish are analysed and optimum design of the impact pad to improve the inclusion removal efficiency is evolved. Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations with standard k-ε model of turbulence and engineering principles are applied to simulate the flow behaviour within the tundish. The study reveals significant variations in flow dynamics, highlighting the impact of flow modifiers on inclusion removal rates. The numerical results indicate that specific arrangements of impact pads lead to improved flow structure and higher efficiency in contaminant extraction compared to traditional designs. This research underscores the importance of optimizing flow modifiers in tundish design to enhance the quality of steel production and mitigate impurity levels effectively.
