Study on Meniscus Temperature Fluctuation during Mold Oscillation in Continuous Casting by Modeling Experiments

The temperature of the meniscus in continuous casting was measured during mold oscillation by modeling experiments,It is found that the temperature of meniscus varied periodically along with mold oscillation.Based on the above phenomenon.the mechanism of smoe techniques,such as ,hot top mold,high frequency and low amplitude mold oscillation,soft-contact mold electromagentic continuous casting and so on,which can improve the quality of continuous casting billets,was analyzed.The results show that the decrease of the temperature fluctuation of early solidification shell is their common mechanism.
