Abstract

The aim of presented studies was to investigate the fluid flow change and non-metallic inclusions removal changes due to tundish construction modifications. In presented study, numerical simulations were used. Numerical simulations are carried out with the finite-volume commercial code ANSYS Fluent. Steady-state casting conditions for the flow structure and the inclusions removal process are analysed.
