Mathematical Modeling of Hydrodynamic Processes in a Tundish Ladle of the CCM in the Course of Bottom Blowing with Inert Gases

Resumo

We perform the theoretical analysis of the process of motion of liquid metal in the tundish ladle of a continuous casting machine (CCM) in the course of inert-gas blowing. The hydrodynamic parameters of the flow of liquid metal in the confined space of a continuous casting machine in the process of blowing with inert gases are determined by the method of mathematical modeling. As the regulated parameters of blowing, we consider the distance of a tuyere from the center of the tundish ladle and the angle of inclination of the gas jet to the vertical.
