Investigation in the behavior of sticking breakout and its propagation in slab continuous casting mould

Based on the measured mould temperature data in slab and thin slab continuous casting,the characteristics of temperature variation and distribution in the mould in normal condition are analyzed.According to the measured samples about sticking,the response of the temperature and the process of sticking breakout are investigated,especially focusing on the sticking propagation along the height and transverse direction.The results can provide guidance for the breakout prediction under high speed casting and design of thermocouples arrangement.
