Original abstract

Two original models have been developed and used in the investigation of a continuously cast low-carbon-steel slab. The first numerical 3D model of the temperature field of a concasting is capable of simulating the temperature field of a caster. Experimental research and data acquisition have to be conducted simultaneously with the numerical computation. The second model of dendritic segregation of elements assesses critical points of slabs from the viewpoint of their increased susceptibility to crack and fissure. In order to apply this model, it is necessary to analyze the heterogeneity of selected elements in characteristic places of the solidifying slab. The model, based on measurement results obtained by an electron micro-probe, generates distribution curves showing the dendritic segregation of the analyzed element, together with the partition coefficients of the elements between the liquid and solid states. The combination of both models enables the prediction of cracks and fissures in critical points of the continuously cast carbon-steel slab.

Czech abstract

Jsou vyvinuty dva originální modely pro výzkum kontinuálně odlévaných nízkouhlíkových ocelových bram. Prvním modelem je 3D numerický model teplotního pole, upřesněný experimentálním měřením. Druhým modelem je model dendritické segregace prvků. Pro aplikaci tohoto modelu je nutné analyzovat heterogenitu vybraných prvků v charakteristických místech tuhnoucí bramy. Kombinace obou modelů umožňuje predikci vzniku trhlin v kritických místech předlitku.
