Abstract

Thermodynamics Analysis of Non-Metallic Inclusions Formation in the Liquid Steel Flow Through Continuous Casting Tundish Experiments were conducted at industrial plant to determine the free and total oxygen contents in molten steel in the tundish during continuous casting blooms of sizes 280×280 mm. On the basis of industrial experiment results a thermodynamic evaluation of non metallic inclusion formation in liquid steel was performed. Software FactSage® with thermodynamic base packages were tested and applied to calculate equilibrium formation of oxides and sulphides. The results showed the effect of oxygen contents and temperature on the formation inclusion in liquid steel. Calculation results was presented in the form of suitable characteristics which were illustrated graphically.
