A coupled numerical simulation of magnetic field and flow field was conducted basing on Φ250mm bloom during continuous casting with electromagnetic stirring.The distribution of the flow field was analyzed in different current and frequency.At the same current,the velocity first decrease and then increase as the frequency increase along the casting direction.At the same frequency, tangential velocity is dominant in the radial of EMS center,velocity increase with the current. Considered the results of numerical simulation,the optimized EMS parameters of Φ250mm bloom are the stirring current of 480A and the stirring frequency of 3Hz.

aking the ∅210mm round billet M-EMS as study subject, a mathematical model coupling electromagnetic field, flow field and temperature field is established by use of Finite Element Analysis Software ANSYS. The distribution law of magnetic induction and electromagnetic force is investigated in mold; the effects of current intensity and frequency on magnetic induction, electromagnetic force, flow and temperature field is studied. The results show that: the values of magnetic induction and electromagnetic force reach its maximum near the edge of billet and became smaller towards the center; in the mold with EMS, the rotary flow is generated, and the flow pattern are upper recirculation zone, rotary zone and down recirculation zone, the location of hot area is moved up compared with the condition without EMS; in the considered parameters range, electromagnetic force and velocity of molten steel increase with the rise of current intensity and frequency.

In this paper, a comprehensive three dimensional mathematical model is built to investigate the effect of electromagnetic stirring (EMS) on continuous casting process of copper round billet. The electromagnetic field is simulated by ANSYS software and the thermal-flow field is simulated by FLUENT software. The coupling between electromagnetic field and thermal-flow field is implemented by user-defined subroutines. The simulation results have good agreement with the experiment ones. The results show that electromagnetic frequency and current intensity have significant influence on the fluid velocity, temperature gradient and sump depth. The optimum current intensity and frequency are found to be 40A and 10Hz respectively.

A three-dimensional mathematical model of mold electromagnetic stirring (M-EMS) for round billet was established. Based on Maxwell’s equations, the distribution of electromagnetic field was solved by ANSYS software. Different process parameters’ influence on magnetic flux density and electromagnetic force (EMF) was studied. The results show that the magnetic flux density reaches the maximum at the stirrer center in the axis direction and increases with the increasing distance from the circle center on the cross section of the stirrer center. The tangential EMF is symmetric about the circle center and reaches the maximum at the edge of round billet. Both the magnetic flux density and the tangential EMF increase with the increasing current intensity. With the increasing current frequency, the magnetic flux density decreases, while the tangential EMF increases in the applied range of current frequency for M-EMS.
