CANCELLED: Key Lubrication Concepts to Understand the Role of Flow, Heat Transfer and Solidification for Modeling Defect Formation During Continuous Casting

Surface defects are recurrent problems during continuous casting of steel due to the introduction of<br/>new grades that are often difficult to cast, as well as the everlasting pursuit for higher quality and<br/>improved yield. Accordingly, numerical modeling has become a ubiquitous tool to analyze the formation<br/>mechanisms of such defects. However, industrial application of simulations is often hampered by oversimplifications and omissions of important process details such as variations in material properties, specific casting practices or shortcomings regarding fundamental metallurgical concepts.
