| Summary: | In this paper, the temperature field and heat transfer stress mathematical model of the unidirectional solidification ingot of the traditional water-cooled chassis and the improved water-cooled chassis are established, and the numerical simulation calculation of 45 tons unidirectional solidification ingot is carried out by using the finite element simulation analysis method. The results show that adding proper forced cooling conditions to the bottom of ingot is beneficial to the balanced advance of the solidification front of molten steel. The improvement of the bottom forced cooling scheme obviously shortens the solidification time of the ingot. The water cooling at the bottom of the ingot is adapted to the air gap distribution to achieve uniform air gap distribution. The ingot solidifies evenly in the longitudinal direction to avoid bottom warpage. |
