Objective
Optimum melting of flux and behaviour of the molten flux pool as well as the avoidance of flux entrapment are important requirements to be achieved simultaneously for a stable casting process and a high product quality.
The aim of the project performed by steel producers (TKN, Aceralia, Sidenor, Cogne) and research institutions (BFI and CSM) is to provide concrete information on the necessary optimum constructive and process engineering measures to adjust the flow conditions in the mould in order to fulfil these requirements. This research will cover flat and long products as well as carbon and stainless steels.
The outcome of this research are important benefits for a great number of European steel producers concerning improved productivity and quality as well as a safe casting process saving resources.
