Changes of Multiphase Flow Patterns during Steel Tapping with Simultaneous Argon Bottom Stirring in the Ladle

Changes of unsteady multiphase fluid flow patterns of liquid steel during electric arc furnace-ladle tapping operations, with simultaneous argon bottom injection, are simulated using interfacial tracking computing techniques. The impinging steel jet interacts with the argon bubbling plume, suffering...
