Abstract:Mathematical formulations to determine the flow controlling gap between a stopper rod and submerged entry nozzle are presented along with derivations. Expressions are also presented for the ideal stopper rod lift in terms of casting conditions and height of liquid metal in the tundish in order to maintain a constant mold level. Calculations using these formulations for a few example configurations are presented. These formulations could be used to determine the potential for flow rate control with a particular… Show more
