| description | Continuous casting is a solidification process, in which the knowledge about its variables is very important in order
to produce steel with good quality. The tundish distributes the steel coming from the ladle to the metallurgical mold as
the traditional function, besides, it also has some other important functions. Because of its importance in the process, this
work aim to carry out studies on the steel flow in the tundish with two different configurations, with and without inert
gas injection. A Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) software were used to make the mathematical simulations making
possible to note the difference in terms of the Residence Time Distribution curves (RTD curves), levels of turbulence and
velocity profiles with or without inert gas injection |
