22 Conclusions Parametric study was performed to investigate the maximum casting speed for different square sections sizes and mold lengths with uniform heat flux around the mold perimeter. Excessive bulging below mold exit may generate subsurface off-corner longitudinal cracks due to hinging. Bulging criterion (4~1 mm maximum) and the hot tearing damage criterion indicate the same critical casting speed. Larger section size leads to slower casting speed limit. Longer mold increases casting speed limit. Productivity benefit from larger section size is partially canceled out by its slower casting speed limit.

23 Future Applications Continuing model developments and validation Further maximum casting speed investigations: Effect of mold distortion Effect of mold taper Effect of spray cooling pattern Effect of steel composition (Fully δ or γ stainless steels) Ideal taper prediction which will help to achieve higher casting speeds University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Metals Processing Simulation Lab Chunsheng Li 23
