The melt-drag single-roll thin strip casting process is investigated via a numerical model, which takes into account fluid flow and heat transfer with phase change. Boundary-layer coupled equations for momentum and energy along with a generalized enthalpy formulation extend the computation to the li

β¦ Synopsis
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 rolls is extremely essential. The coupled heat transfer and deformation analysis of the casting roll is carried out in a two-dimensional numerical model, using a finite element program (MARC) to examine the thermal stress and displacement. The effects of several factors such as the nickel overlay thickness on the roll surface, the casting speed, and the roll diameter on thermal characteristics are investigated.
