Presentation Title Predicted Back-meniscus Stability for the Horizontal Single Belt Casting (HSBC) with Single Impingement Feeding System

On-Site Speaker (Planned) Daniel Ricardo Gonzalez Morales
Abstract Scope Horizontal Single Belt Casting is one of the emerging Near-Net-Shape-Casting (NNSC) Processes for producing thin strips directly from liquid metal. It has been shown to have several advantages compared to the traditional Continuous Casting (CC), and Direct Chill (DC) casting methods. Nevertheless, some process conditions need to be thoroughly controlled to obtain high-quality metal strip material. Two of these are the “back meniscus” and metal “backflow” behavior. In the present research, the effects of the gap clearance between the back refractory and the belt, the belt speed, and the role of contact angle, are studied for the belt casting of AA2024 Aluminum alloy, using the commercial Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software, ANSYS-Fluent 19.1. Combinations of variables were evaluated, to obtain the optimal set of processing parameters needed to promote “back meniscus” stability for the HSBC process for a vertical, single – impingement, metal feeding system.
