Water Modeling Study on Flow Field and Surface Wave in Slab Continuous Casting Mold

According to the mold for slab caster,a water model in the ratio of 1 to 1 was established in order to study the effect of the mold section and the level of steel in tundish on the flow field and surface wave of molten steel in the mold.The pressure of steel flow on SEN outlet changes due to change of the level of steel in tundish.Then the flow field and surface wave of molten steel in the mold change too.The surface wave of molten steel in the mold and influence factors were further clearly recognized to guide the production of high quality slab.
