Abstract

Provided is a continuous casting method for molten metal, wherein a hollow cylindrical, conical or truncated conical refractory structure provided with one or more side holes in the side wall thereof is disposed above an immersion nozzle in a tundish with the axis of the refractory structure disposed vertically, and molten metal is supplied from the tundish into the immersion nozzle. In said continuous casting method for molten metal, the angle formed by a virtual line extending radially from the center of a circular cross-section in the horizontal direction of the refractory structure and the central axis of the side hole is an angle ([theta]1), the swirling flow of the molten metal supplied into the immersion nozzle is formed by causing the molten metal in the tundish to pass through the side hole, and the flow velocity (Q) of the molten metal, the total opening area (S) of the side hole, the mean internal radius (R) of the circular cross-section in the horizontal direction in a portion in which the side hole is bored, and the angle ([theta]1) satisfy 0.015m2 / s<=RQ / SSin[theta]1<=0.100m2 / s. By providing a swirling flow imparting mechanism in the tundish, the flow of the molten metal in a mold can be stabilized.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a technique for applying a swirling flow to molten metal passing through a submerged nozzle in continuous casting of molten metal such as molten steel. The swirling flow applied to the molten metal passing through the submerged nozzle contributes to the stabilization of the flow of the molten metal in the submerged nozzle and the mold. Background technique [0002] In continuous casting using a wide mold such as continuous casting of slabs, molten metal is usually supplied through one submerged nozzle having opposing discharge holes. In this case, the flow in the mold will generate self-excited vibrations, which will cause fluctuations in the flow rate or fluctuations in the surface of the molten metal. As a result, it is required to reduce the casting speed in order to prevent quality defects in the surface layer portion of the cast slab. [0003] Conventionally, for the purpose of controlling the flow in the mold, a...
