Abstract

A model plant of strip casting system of two roll type was developed to obtain the fundamental data on optimum operating condition for production of strip or thin slab. In this first report, mode of solidification and temperature distribution in the strip of Pb-Bi alloy with low melting temperature during steady process was simulated by solving the heat conduction equation incorporated with latent heat due to solidification when considering material flow. And, the results of analysis on the shape of the solidified shell and the temperature distribution in molten metal was compared with measured temperature data by thermocouples, and the validity of the simulation method are also discussed.
