Electromagnetic brake (EMBr) technique is adopted to reduce the turbulence of molten alloy in the slab mould in the continuous casting process, especially under high casting speed. We introduce a state-of-the-art EMBr technique by reviewing the published literature. The main objective of this paper is to give a clear view of the EMBr technique in terms of the magnet arrangement, along with their “Braking” effect to help decision-making. The EMBr system can be divided into three types, in terms of the magnet arrangement: the Local type, the Ruler type and the Multi-mode type, respectively. Both advantages and disadvantages of each type have been discussed. Further challenges are also raised.

Abstract An inverse heat transfer model based on Salp Swarm optimization algorithm is developed for prediction of heat flux at the hot faces of a mould in thin slab continuous casting. The industrial mould considered in this work is a funnel-shaped mould having complex arrangement of cooling slots and holes. Significant variations of heat flux along the casting direction, as well as across the width are observed. Subsequently, the obtained heat flux profile estimated by the inverse method is used to analyse the fluid flow and thermal characteristics of the solidifying steel strand inside the mould. Three different recirculatory zones are present due to molten steel flow, affecting the thermal and solidification characteristics significantly. The effect of these recirculatory flows on remelting phenomenon, and consequent formation of thinner shell at the mould outlet leading to quality control issues in the casting process have been discussed. Another practical issue of depression in the wide face shell thickness at the mould outlet has been identified, and its cause has been related to the location of the Submerged Entry Nozzle and the high speed of the molten steel inflow.

Breakout is the most detrimental event associated with the continuous casting process, with the overview of the sticking breakout behavior, a lot of valuable things had been acquired. For the mechanism of the sticking breakout forming, the key for the breakout prevention is decreasing the probability of the hot spot; the content of the carbon or alloy element, the wear and tear of the mould corner, the mould flux, the fluctuation of the casting speed and the fluctuation of the meniscus are easy to cause the sticking; and with high casting speed and the funnel mould, the thin slab continuous casting is more easier to lead to sticking breakout than the normal strand.
