| Summary: | In the present work, a coupled three-dimensional numerical model of fluid flow, heat transfer, and inclusion motion during the solidification of molten steel in slab continuous casting mold has been developed. Based on the model, this paper has studied the inclusion capture during the process. The influence of the primary dendrite arm spacing on inclusion capture has been considered. The inclusion distributions, total masses, and average diameters at different depth from the slab surface have been given out in the present paper. The simulation results revealed the inclusion concentration existed in the solidification process, and the inclusion capturing area varies with the depth from the slab surface. |
