An inner-outer coupled cooling technology of molten steel for 1240×200mm slab continuous casting, that is to set an inner cooler—U shape pipes in the mold, is put forward in order to enhance the efficiency of transmitting heat and improve inner structure of billet. The flow status and solidification status of molten steel under coupling flow field and temperature field in inner-outer coupled cooling mold are simulated by using fluid dynamics software, and compare with those in traditional mold. It is found that setting inner cooler in the mold can make molten steel flow status even, which is favorable to floating up of the inclusion, quickening the solidification of steel liquid and improving the quality of billet.

High casting speed coincides with the development trend of billet continuous casting, which significantly changes the casting characteristics. A mathematical model of the billet mold, which includes multiphase fluid flow, transient heat transfer, and solidification during ultra-high speed of the casting process was developed. The model is first applied to investigate the flow field of molten steel in the mold, studying the influence of steel flow upon the melting and flowing behavior of mold flux. The temperature and velocity distributions of the flux pool that formed above the molten steel surface are described. A parametric study on the melting temperature and viscosity of mold flux on liquid flux thickness and flow velocity is then carried out. Finally, the model is used to derive the relationship between interfacial tension and level fluctuations. The predictions provide an improved understanding of the melting and flowing behavior of mold flux in the billet mold and give the guidance for the design and optimization of mold flux for ultra-high speed of billet casting.

In order to prevent molten steel reoxidation in the tundish during continuous casting, argon injection into the shroud is applied. The injected argon bubbles in molten steel may change the molten steel flow pattern in the tundish. Consequently, the ratios of dead zone, plunger zone and well-mixed zone would change. Also, the motion of inclusions in the molten steel of tundish would change resulting from argon injection. The current word developed a coupling multiphase flow mathematical model. Basing on the developed model, the present work has researched the influences of argon injection on the molten steel flow pattern, inclusion motion characteristics in the tundish.
