Secondary Cooling Analysis of AZ80Y Magnesium Alloy Slab during DC Casting by Modelling and Verification Based on Experiment
The secondary cooling of AZ80 during DC casting was investigated by measuring the temperature at a given position during steady state. The experiment was carried out under different parameters including the water flow rate density (<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Ma...

description | The secondary cooling of AZ80 during DC casting was investigated by measuring the temperature at a given position during steady state. The experiment was carried out under different parameters including the water flow rate density (<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><msup><mi>Q</mi><mo>*</mo></msup></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>) and initial temperature (<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><msub><mi>T</mi><mi>i</mi></msub></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>) of the impingement points. To theorize the heat transfer of the secondary cooling zone in practical DC casting, we designed a series of experimental equipment to simulate the secondary cooling with differing <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><msub><mi>T</mi><mi>i</mi></msub></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> (between 473 and 673 K) and <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><msup><mi>Q</mi><mo>*</mo></msup></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> (between 20 and 100 L min<sup>−1</sup> m<sup>−1</sup>) based on the DC casting temperature-measurement experiment above. Detailed analysis was carried out of both the experimental results combined with <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><msup><mi>Q</mi><mo>*</mo></msup></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>. The empirical formulae of Rohsenow and Weckman were modified due to the need to divide the secondary cooling zone into an impingement zone and a free-falling zone. Finally, a verification of the model’s accuracy was conducted by comparing the results of the finite volume numerical simulation and the experiment, which revealed that the model exhibited extremely high accuracy. |
