Abstract:Understanding the phenomena that cause jet oscillations inside funnel-type thin-slab molds is essential for ensuring continuous liquid steel delivery, improving flow pattern control, and increasing plant productivity and the quality of the final product. This research aims to study the effect of the nozzle’s internal design on the fluid dynamics of the nozzle-mold system, focusing on suppressing vorticity generation below the nozzle’s tip. The optimized design of the nozzle forms the basis of the results obtai… Show more
