Abstract:Based on the basic principle of heat transfer and solidification theory and finite element method, the mathematical model of solidification and heat transfer finite difference was established and the simulation analysis the whole process of casting solidification was made. The results showed that casting speed is greater, the slab center and surface temperature is higher, the shell thickness from the mould is thinner;the degree of superheat increases, the temperatures of slab center and surface are all rising, the shell thickness from the mould reduces;and when cooling water increases relatively, the shell thickness from the mould increases, the temperature in secondary cooling zone decreased rapidly. The solidification model for continuous casting slab can be used to confirm the shell thickness, the position of solidification end and temperature distribution in the surface in conventional casting speed range and different casting speed.
