Finite element analysis of liquid-solid coupling problem

It is of great significance to accurately get the liquid-solid fraction of continuous casting slab with regard to decreasing internal defects of the slab such as the central segregation and shrinkage porosity and improving the quality of slabs and productivity. According to the similarity theory, a set of physical simulation device using the materials of organic glass and water is designed. And the finite element analysis is accomplished using ANSYS software following the model device. Basing on physical experiment and numerical simulation, the research results provide guidance and reference for the on-line detection of liquid-solid fraction and final solidifying end of the slab.
