Abstract [en]
Continuous casting (CC) is an important process for controlling non-metallic inclusion particles from the molten steel. Electromagnetic force effectively impacts the rotational flow of molten steel and the motion of the inclusions within the continuous casting mold through non-direct contact. The effect of a novel electromagnetic swirling flow in nozzle (EMSFN) and traditional mold electromagnetic stirring (M-EMS) on inclusion control was investigated during the completed solidification process. The obtained results indicate that the inclusions number decreases by 23.9 %, and the inclusions distribution fluctuation decreases by 57.3 % using EMSFN compared to the case using M-EMS, which are caused by the shallower impact depth and stronger and more uniform central flow by EMSFN, respectively.
