Abstract

Problem Statement (Relevance): the article describes design of refractory equipment installed in сhambers of tundish for continuous casting machine (CCM). Improving equipment provides effective formation of metal flows and creates conditions for increase of its quality. Objectives: improving designs TN, using simulation results casting process for improving the quality of continuous cast billets. Methods Applied: design area of machines based on the fundamental laws of conservation of mass, energy, equations of mathematical physics, well-known and proven mathematical techniques. Originality: this article examines the configuration of elements of the chambers of a tundish on a four-strand continuous caster and aspects of organizing the movement of the flows of steel within the chambers. It is shown that new configurations and structural elements developed for the system that distributes the flows have a significant effect on their parameters and the removal of nonmetallic inclusions. Findings: refinement and practical introduction of the designs will effectively extinguish the eddies that form above the discharge nozzles and improve the quality of the castings by forming a well-organized stream of molten metal. Practical Relevance: the improvement provides efficient shaping a flow metal in camera tundish and trouble-free operation CCM.
