Blowhole prevention by optimal feeding systems

Objective

In continuous casting the formation of blowholes presents a serious problem. Blowholes find their origin in the supply system from tundish to mould where argon is injected for the purpose of shrouding and as a means to prevent clogging. It is proposed to overcome the problem of blowholes by reducing the amount of argon injected into the feeding system.

This implies that a new supply system should be developed to overcome clogging problems by combining the following items: - a new collector nozzle; - a new type SEN (submerged entry nozzle); - a new flow regulating system; - a new gas injection system.
