Abstract Scope Precise control of steel solidification rate inside a continuous caster is crucial in ensuring excellent slab cast quality, especially with various steel grades produced. A caster operator must adjust casting conditions like steel superheat temperature, spray cooling rates to maintain consistency in the slab quality. Thus, a tool that accurately predicts the casting conditions and can provide necessary adjustments is valuable to the operator. A comprehensive Computational Fluid Dynamics multiphase model of the continuous caster has been developed. The shell thickness in the caster mold predicted by the CFD model shows good agreement with the experimental results. However, the CFD model is not practical and user-friendly for plant operation use. To address this, an interactive software tool based on CFD simulation results has been developed. The interactive software predicts solidification steel temperature and solidification in the caster, but it is currently limited to specific casting conditions and steel compositions.
