Objective

It is proposed to make a fundamental study of the mechanisms of inclusion removal from steel involving the determination of interfacial energies and contact angles for defined metal and inclusion compositions. A particular aspect will be interaction of gas bubbles, liquid steel and inclusions since gas flushing is used in practice to aid inclusion removal. The project will be undertaken in collaboration with BSC Teesside Laboratories Middlesbrough and NPL, Teddington.
