Using finite element method, the molten steel flow process in soft-contact electromagnetic continuous casting mold is simulated. The results show that the molten steel surface were affected by the electromagnetic force and shrink to the centre, near meniscus zone the flow velocity of steel increases and appears an obvious circumfluence, a large number of inclusion float and are absorbed by flux; on the other hand, the turbulent kinetic energy significant increases in circumfluence area, this exacerbates the reaction between flux and liquid steel, the initial size of the solidification organization are refined, and the surface quality of slab are enhanced.

An inner-outer coupled cooling technology of molten steel for 1240×200mm slab continuous casting, that is to set an inner cooler—U shape pipes in the mold, is put forward in order to enhance the efficiency of transmitting heat and improve inner structure of billet. The flow status and solidification status of molten steel under coupling flow field and temperature field in inner-outer coupled cooling mold are simulated by using fluid dynamics software, and compare with those in traditional mold. It is found that setting inner cooler in the mold can make molten steel flow status even, which is favorable to floating up of the inclusion, quickening the solidification of steel liquid and improving the quality of billet.

Abstract. Soft-contact electromagnetic continuous casting is a new technology to improve the surface quality of billet. The soft-contact electromagnetic continuous casting mold heat transfer mechanism was discussed through the molten steel heat transfer process in the mold in this paper. The aspect that previous studies have not designed in the heat transfer process has been pointed out in the last. The researchers did not add the flux film as a heat transfer medium,but the slag in the mold is a very important thermal resistance actually.

In the paper a inner-outer couple cooling technology of molten steel for 1240×200mm slab continuous casting, that is to set an inner cooler-U shape pipes in the mold, is put forward in order to enhance the efficiency of transmitting heat and improve the flow status of molten steel. The flow status of molten steel in inner-outer couple cooling mold is simulated by using fluid dynamics software. It is found that setting inner cooler in the mold can make molten steel flow status even, which partly act as electromagnetic trig and is favorable to inclusion in molten steel floating up.
