| Abstract |
A two-dimensional numerical model for the vertical twin-roll strip casting process has been developed. The boundary fitted coordinate (BFC) is employed to handle the complicate boundary geometry and the resultant transformed governing equations for the melt pool and roll are solved separately using the finite volume method based on control volume method. The effects of casting conditions of roll speed and superheat on the heat transfer and flow pattern were studied. As roll speed increased, the positions of solidification end point and stagnation point were lower and the temperature of the strip at the roll nip increased. The effects of superheat on the heat transfer and flow pattern were smaller than that of roll speed. The surface temperature of strip out of the roll nip increased due to reheating of strip and the temperature differences between surface and center of strip were in the range of 60∼80℃. |
