A field equation is given, which shows the azimuthal velocity closely relates to electrical conductivity, magnetic density, viscosity of liquid metal and radius of casting. The results show that the stationary magnetic field can effectively restrain the fluid flow and the relative velocity between liquid metal and casting mould and the velocity gradient at solid / liquid interface increases with rising magnetic density, which has a great effect on the solidification of liquid metal and crystal growth characteristics.展开更多

Electromagnetic field(EMF) has been applied to control the fluid flow as an efficient technology, and a lot of research works on the effect of the EMF has been done by numerical simulation. Aware of the limitation of the numerical simulation of the flow under a static EMF, low melting metals have been adapted to the investigation of flow in EMF. In the report, some of works on electromagnetic brake ruler (EMBR) and Flow Control Mold (FC-Mold) in slab casting with mercury as an analogue of liquid steel are presented. In the experiment, the flow in the mold and fluctuation of meniscus were measured by the ultrasonic DOP2000 velocimeter. The effects of the magnetic flux density and location of the magnets on the flow in the mold have been studied. The results showed that the flow discharged from the SEN was suppressed, both of the distribution of the kinetic energy and the turbulence intensity were changed, and the flow stability of liquid metal in the mold was enhanced. In electromagnetic brake ruler when Bmax was more than 0.29T, the surface level fluctuations were suppressed,the flow at the meniscus became stable and the flow pattern at the meniscus were improved, and the impact strength of liquid metal was weakened simultaneously, and the penetration depth was reduced. It was beneficial to improve the flow in the upper eddy, fluctuation of meniscus and stability of the flow when the magnet was located near the SEN. However, it was good to reduce the impact action and penetration depth when the magnet was away from the SEN. Compared with EMBR, it was more effective to use FC-Mold for improving the flow in the upper eddy, fluctuation of meniscus and stability of the flow. Nevertheless, it was more effective for lower flow to reducing the impact action and penetration depth using EMBR. The experiment results showed that a magnetic field could not only damp flow, but also change the flow direction and distribute the flux of liquid steel. Thus, the flow in the mold could be improved by optimizing the distribution of magnetic field. The behavior of gas bubbles in the melt during continuous casting with EMBR has been investigated experimentally. It is found that the movement and distribution of the bubbles changed a lot. The bubbles tended to penetrate less and accumulate near the SEN when the EMBR switched on.展开更多
