INFLUENCE OF MISALIGNMENT LADLE SHROUD ON TUNDISH RESIDENCE TIME
Abstract
An idea that the ladle shroud under operation conditions can be misaligned towards an impact point on basis of used shroud feeding and holding technology was developed. That means that the stream of incoming liquid steel is not always directed vertically or to the center of impact point of tundish. Different residence times in particular streams at the continuous casting can occur consequently. In case that the tundish is replenished from ladle with different steel quality after previous tundish level decrease, that asymmetry can show in various length of the transition regions of slabs on particular streams of continuously casted steel.
