Abstract
More than 95% of steel produced in the entire world is produced by continuous casting. Flow condition in the mould, where the initial solidification occurs, are important for the end quality of the product. It is important to understand these conditions and react accordingly. The process is modeled at the mini-LIMMCAST facility which is operated with a eutectic alloy of GaInSn. The flow in the mould is monitored with Contactless Inductive Flow Tomography (CIFT) and the flow is influenced with an Electromagnetic Brake (EMBr). The EMBr has a great influence on the CIFT measurement system which needs to be compensated. The video explains basics of continuous casting and the experimental setup; it highlights the challenges and implemented solutions, and gives and outlook to the related research.
