Optimising slag film properties and determination of operational windows for lubrication, mould heat transfer and shell formation

Objective

The objective of this project is to optimise the lubrication within the mould and heat transfer from the shell to the mould via the definition of operational windows for the mould powder and numerical simulation of fluid flow at the meniscus and the effects of stresses and deformation on the forming shell.

The operational windows will be defined through a correlation of slag and slag film properties, observed surface defects, caster and casting operational parameters and numerical simulation and model predictions. Achievement of the objectives will result in an improvement in as-cast surface quality.
