Coiled strip can be directly produced through the twin-roll strip casting process from the melt by incorporating casting and hot rolling together into a single step. In this unique process, the strip formation from the molten metal critically relies upon the casting rolls. Thus, the design of the ro

β¦ Synopsis
Finite difference and finite element computations were employed to determine temperature and stress distributions in two casting wheel concepts. Wheel material properties and wheel geometry were varied to study their influence on the resulting casting process parameters. A finite element study revealed the locations and the approximate magnitude of the main stresses in a casting wheel with axial cooling boreholes. The results of this study indicate that plastic deformation and high compressive stresses are likely to occur in this type of casting wheels.

The film casting process is widely used to produce polymer film: a molten polymer is extruded through a flat die, then stretched in air and cooled on a chill roll. This study is devoted to the extensional flow between the die and the chill roll. The film shows a lateral neck-in as well as an inhomog
