The combination of the steel teeming process and the refractory outfit design of the billet caster's pouring ladle‒intermediate ladle system

Abstract

The refractory outft of the steel-teeming ladle (STL)‒ metal jet (MJ)‒intermediate ladle (IL) was regarded in the article for the billet continuous casters (CCM). The metal flow management was investigated for this system. The peculiarities of the CCM element's design were noticed which provided the efcient flow of the teeming metal in the STK‒MJ‒CCM system. This investigation enabled both the successful steel flow formation in the receiving chamber (RC) of the billet CCM and the improvement of the metal quality while the amount of the discarded continuous steel cast billets got down.Ill.4.
