Shandong, China a majiaocheng@163.com Key words: continuous casting, heat transfer model, shell thickness, surface temperature Abstract: In order to more accurate simulation the solidification of billet continuous casting. The measured shell thickness and surface temperature have been used to revise the heat transfer model. The calculated results of the model are in excellent agreement with the experimental ones based on an actual casting machine. The revised model can excellent to simulate the billet solidification process. So it provides the possibility for better simulation the dynamic solidification process and optimizing of the secondary cooling water. 1. Introduction In the continuous casting process, the internal defects which can be formed in cast material are due to inappropriate casting operation and improper secondary cooling water distribution, especially the defects of cracks represented by the midway crack and centreline crack which cover over 50% of total quality problems [1,2]. Secondary cooling control is one of the key techniques of influencing the quality of billet. The solidification process in the secondary cooling should be controlled, which is equal to control the temperature field of billet. In order to avoid internal cracks and other defects, it is necessary to analyses the solidification process based on the heat transfer model. Owing to the influence of high-temperature, water vapor, water film and scales on the strand surface, etc in the secondary cooling zone, it is difficult to measure the billet surface temperature accurately, let alone the internal temperature. In order to better control the billet solidification process, many mathematical heat transfer models [3,4] for continuous casting have been developed and the solidification process has been studied. Especially, the dynamic model which can simulate the actual solidification process has been established [5]. However, the solidification heat transfer model for correction and verification of the actual field is very less. The industry experiment has been done according to an actual machine. The thickness combined with surface temperature of measured has been used to correct the model, In view of the present defects which the heat transfer model has been revised by using only measured thickness or measured surface temperature. It provides the possibility for better simulation the dynamic solidification process [5,6] and optimizing of the secondary cooling water [7,8]. 2. Mathematical model and modified method In order to simulate the billet continuous casting process of heat transfer and solidification, some assumptions have been made in the present mathematical models [3-5]. The two-dimensional heat conduction equation and the boundary conditions are shown as follows: ρ c = k + k + q (1) τ x x y y All rights reserved.

The accuracy and reliability of model is the key of practical. The revised of model is to determine the boundary conditions. The convective heat transfer coefficient of secondary cooling of billet sections is difficult to directly accurately measure because of the impact of the pressure of cooling water, the density of water flow and the billet surface temperature. The modification of the model is to adjust the heat transfer coefficient to make the calculated data good agreement to the measured ones. The modified parameters of model are mainly the billet surface temperature or the shell thickness. As the shell thickness can be well reflected the changes of the casting speed, but it does not reflect the billet surface temperature. The billet shell thickness can be well reflected the changes of the casting speed, and it has very good stability, but it does not reflect the billet surface temperature. The billet surface temperature can be well reflected by the measured temperature. Owing to the influence of high-temperature, water vapor, water film and scales on the strand surface, etc in the secondary cooling zone, it is difficult to measure the billet surface temperature accurately. The surface temperature was measured by the thermal imager in the exit of the secondary cooling. The shell thickness was measured by the nail shooting in secondary cooling zone respectively. The model was revised by the measured data.

Results and discussion The heat transfer and solidification model is based on an actual casting machine in a steel plant. There are three cooling segments: mould, secondary and radiation cooling segment. The secondary cooling segment has three zones with independently controlled water sprays. The computing parameters are shown in Table 1. The shell thickness at the end of each spray zone and the surface temperature at the secondary cooling exit were measured in different pouring process conditions as shown in Table 2. The heat transfer coefficients of secondary cooling zones were revised to make the calculation billet thickness and the surface temperature with the measured results consistent.

So the shell thickness can be gained at the shooting nails position by the sulfur print, as shown Fig 1.
4 84 Information Engineering for Mechanics and Materials Fig.1 Method of measuring shell thickness There is a great fluctuation on the measured temperature, because of the influence of the scale on the strand surface. Some areas of the strand surface are covered by the scale and some are not, especially the air gap that forms between the scale and the strand surface can cause the fluctuation above 100. The pyrometer is spot measurement, so it s very difficult to reflect the actual surface temperature. In the radiation region, the surface temperature gradient of billet is rather little in the withdrawal direction, so it was assumed that the temperature in a small rectangle area at measured point neighborhood doesn t change and the top temperature are near the actual surface temperature. The effect of the scale has been reduced through multipoint measuring with thermal imager in the rectangle area and selecting the maximal temperature as the measured temperature. Fig 2 show that the measured surface temperature and peak extraction temperature at the secondary cooling exit by changing operation conditions.

5 Applied Mechanics and Materials Vols The shell thickness and the temperature of billet can be gained by the heat transfer model which was revised by shell thickness and surface temperature of measured. From Fig 3, a consistent result of shell thickness and surface temperature between experimental data and numerical results is obtained. From the results that the revised model can more accurate simulate the billet solidification process. Conclusions The correction method of heat transfer model and the key correction parameters have been studied. The surface temperature and shell thicknesses were measured by the thermal imager in the exit of the secondary cooling and nail shooting in secondary cooling zone respectively and the model was revised by the measured data. The revised model can excellent to simulate the billet solidification process, and it provides the possibility for better optimizing of the second cooling water.
