| Popis: | The flow field, bubble distribution and solidified shell in slab mold are numerically simulated with large eddy simulation (LES) under different electromagnetic braking (EMBr) conditions, assisted with high-temperature quantitative velocity measurement. The calculated velocities on the mold surface are in good agreement with the measured values of the industrial experiment at high temperature with the rod deflection method under different EMBr conditions and different argon flow rates, which verifies the correctness of the model. After EMBr is applied, the flow velocity on the surface of the mold decreases. With EMBr, the velocity on the mold surface first increases and then decreases with the increase in argon flow rate. When the argon flow rate is 10 L·min−1, the jets at the side ports of the submerged entry nozzle (SEN) become disordered, and the liquid level fluctuation near the SEN wall intensifies, which increases the risk of slag entrainment and slag layer breaking and the risk of argon bubbles being captured. When the argon flow rate is 6 L·min−1, the velocity and fluctuation on the mold surface can be significantly reduced by use of double-ruler EMBr; the impact of the jet on the narrow face of the mold is obviously restrained; and the solidified shell thickness increases. |
