摘要
Increased casting productivity, especially with the introduction of high speed billet casting (HSBC), re-emphasized the importance of high performing mold electromagnetic stirring (M-EMS) in attaining the targets of productivity and product quality. To provide operating flexibility and to enhance metallurgical performance, adapting M-EMS design to the requirements of casting practice with either the open stream pouring or submerged entry nozzle (SEN) has become critical. In that context, it is especially important to assess the effects of EMS design parameters that control stirring velocity in the meniscus region and the rest of the mold. Such a control is the key to EMS compatibility with the continuous casting practice and its high metallurgical performance.
