Computer simulations of fluid flow and heat transfer phenonmena in a continuous casting process with direct-chill (DC) boundary conditions are presented and discussed in this paper. The investigation is limited to a steady-state, two-dimensional axisymmetric system, used for DC continuous casting of a zero-freezing-range aluminum-magnesium alloy (A6063). An adaptive-grid numerical method is used in these simulations. The grid is designed to delineate the solid-liquid interface using a structured adaptation technique. The fluid flow and thermal fields are predicted using a control-volume finite element (CVFEM). Comparisons of the calculated solid-liquid interface geometries with those reported in earlier experimental and numerical studies are presented in this paper. In addition, the role of natural convection in this casting process is investigated and presented.
