MOLD ELECTROMAGNETIC STIRRING TECHNIQUE FOR CONTINUOUS CASTING

Metallurgical results of mold electromagnetic stirring(M-EMS) in continuous casting were comprehensively introduced, meanwhile, some problems associated with the application of M-EMS and their countermeasures were also discussed. It is considered that the combination stirring (M+F-EMS) should be employed to newly built bloom continuous caster at PZH Steel, and the mold electromagnetic stirring parameters should be optimized in order to fully realize the advantages of M-EMS.
