Aluminum and Aluminum Alloys Casting Problems
Aluminum castings have played an integral role in the growth of the aluminum industry since its inception in the late 19th century. The first commercial aluminum products were castings, such as cooking utensils and decorative parts, which exploited the novelty and utility of the new metal. Those early applications rapidly expanded to address the requirements of a wide range of engineering speci...
متن کاملContinuous Casting
Continuous casting is used to mass produce basic metals into long, semi-finished shapes with constant cross section, which are later processed into over 800 million tons of steel, 20 million tons of aluminum, and 1 million tons of copper, nickel, and other metal products in the world each year. Cross-sections can be rectangular, for later rolling into plate or sheet, square for long products, c...
متن کاملModeling of Continuous Casting
1 The high cost of empirical investigation in an operating steel plant makes it prudent to use all available tools in designing, troubleshooting and optimizing the process. Physical modeling, such as using water to simulate molten steel, enables significant insights into the flow behavior of liquid steel processes. The complexity of the continuous casting process and the phenomena which govern ...
متن کاملContinuous Casting of Steel
Continuous casting is used to solidify most of the 750 million tons of steel produced in the world every year. Like most commercial processes, continuous casting involves many complex interacting phenomena. Most previous advances have been based on empirical knowledge gained from experimentation with the process. To further optimize the design and improve the continuous casting process, mathema...
متن کاملThe Use of Water Cooling during the Continuous Casting of Steel and Aluminum Alloys
In both continuous casting of steel slabs and direct chill (DC) casting of aluminum alloy ingots, water is used to cool the mold in the initial stages of solidification, and then below the mold, where it is in direct contact with the newly solidified surface of the metal. Water cooling affects the product quality by (1) controlling the heat removal rate that creates and cools the solid shell an...
