The residence time distribution (RTD) curve is a simple and useful method to analyze the
flow behavior in the tundish. In the last decades, analysis result acquirement based on the …

Continuous casting process is an important process to produce steel. Nowadays,
steelmakers are focusing on improving the process capabilities, efficiency, and product …

Injection and distribution of argon in a ladle shroud-collector plate nozzle (LS-CN) assembly
have been investigated for three different argon gas delivery designs popularly used in the …

Gas aspiration through ladle shroud, during the teeming of a ladle into a tundish, has been
investigated via physical and mathematical modeling. To this end, a volume of fluid‐based …

A swirling flow tundish is developed to deeply clean the liquid steel through enhancing the
coalescence of inclusions. The swirling flow is generated using the gravitational energy of …

The sequential casting of slabs is a major trend in the steel industry where steel quality is the
most important factor. The operating parameters have the most influence on mixing …

The residence properties of gas-solid phases are important to the design and process
optimization of a COREX shaft furnace. In this study, we investigated the gas-solid residence …

Argon injection in ladle shrouds is customarily practiced during the teeming of liquid steel
from ladle to tundish to minimize air ingression and thereby restrict atmospheric oxidation of …

Economically, steel cleanliness is important. Cleaner steel contains fewer inclusions.
Inclusions are removed, and thus cleanliness improves when steel is molten. Consequently …

The minimization of grade intermixing in a tundish is one of the import concern of
steelmakers. Different design and operating parameters of the tundish, as well as flow …
