文摘During the continuous casting process of low carbon steel,the solidified hook formed in the mold has great effects on the surface quality of the cast slab.Some factory experiments have been conducted to investigate the microscopic characteristics and reveal the influence of process parameters on solidified hooks.The depth of the hooks showed a positive correlation with the deflection angle,length,and oscillation mark(OM)depth,which indicates that the OM depth can serve as an approximate indicator for evaluating the depth of the solidified hooks.On the wide and narrow faces of the cast slab,the depth of the solidified hooks and the temperature distribution in the mold show opposite trends,with lower depths of solidified hooks at positions with higher temperatures.In addition,the influence of process parameters on solidified hooks was analyzed.With the increase in superheat,not only the depth of solidified hooks gradually decreases,but also the ratio of depression-typed marks increases.Increasing casting speed and decreasing immersion depth of the submerged entry nozzle will both lead to a decrease in the depth of the solidified hook.
