The Implementation of Hot Top Variations in Industrial Scale to Reduce Macrosegregation in Large Size Ingots
This project aims to help Finkl Steel-Sorel produce larger steel ingots with more consistent chemical composition and improved mechanical properties while reducing macrosegregation. By enhancing understanding of how chemical composition and solidification interact with casting systems, like hot top configurations, the project seeks to improve the quality and uniformity of steel. It involves developing a model to predict macrosegregation patterns, evaluating how different hot top materials and designs impact solidification, and applying these new designs in industrial settings. The project will also publish findings and share results through research articles and conferences. Overall, these efforts will provide Finkl Steel-Sorel with valuable tools and data to optimize their processes and enhance product quality.
