摘要

The simulation-based analysis of flow phenomena in continuous casting moulds is a mature and well-established practice. Commonly applied approaches include Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and physical modelling techniques, such as water modelling and, more recently, liquid metal experiments. These methods enable a detailed evaluation of submerged entry nozzles (SEN) performance and support their optimization under varying process conditions. In addition, they play a critical role in the development of new refractory products. A final validation of simulation outcomes through in-situ measurements at the caster remains essential. This article reviews the simulation and experimental tools employed by RHI Magnesita and illustrates their application with selected case studies.
