Based on the existing research on nozzle arrangement method in secondary cooling zone of continuous casting, the method of superposed water flow density is put forward to optimize the nozzle arrangement at casting direction and transverse section of slab according to the optimization principle. The two-dimension heat transfer model is established.

The results indicate that the surface temperature of slab is dropped equably after optimization, and the casting blank is cooling uniformly in the water springing zone so as to ensure better quality of the casting blank.

Control model for secondary cooling of continuous casting based on compensation temperature of the difference between liquidus and solidus

During continuous casting process, the composition of molten steel often varies with different heats, which leads to the big fluctuation of billet surface temperature when the traditional parameter water control model is applied to control the process. Additionally, it is difficult to keep the temperature at the straightening point of the billet within a reasonable range. Given above consideration, a new control model for secondary cooling of continuous casting based on compensation temperature of the difference between liquidus and solidus has been presented. Meanwhile, the temperature field of the billet is simulated with both the parameter water control model and the new secondary cooling control model, and the results indicate that the new control model for secondary cooling of continuous casting could perform better when it is used to control the surface temperature at straightening points of billet, thereby ensuring the quality of the billet.
