In order to predict and control the temperature of continuous casting slab, a mathematical heat transfer model simulating the solidification process of continuous casting slab has been developed based on the realistic roller-layout and spray nozzle distribution. And the accuracy has been verified by comparing with the pin-shooting experiment results. An advanced control strategies are adopted to achieve the optimization of water quantity under different production conditions by the integration of energy saving water distribution module and slab temperature optimization module in the dynamic secondary cooling model. The total water consumption has a trend of dropping off after the utilization of the optimization technique. And the slab surface temperature increases which fits for the down stream direct hot rolling.
In production process of continuous casting slab in ferrous metallurgy, in order to realize soft reduction and obtain continuous casting slabs without internal defects, it is important to determine the location of final solidifying end of slabs exactly. In this paper, a set of physical simulation device which simulates detecting the final solidifying end was designed according to similarity theory. Through experimental study and mathematical statistic method, we analyzed the influence of each factor on the detected results. The research results may provide certain guidance for the on-line detection final solidifying end in situ.
