The effect of suspension casting process on temperature field, solidification rate, temperature gap of crystallization, effective distribution coefficient of solute and nucleation frequency during solidification process in steel ingot were discussed on the base of experiments. It has been found that the suspension casting process can increase both cooling at and solidification rate of steel ingot, improve the temperature field and solute distribution, narrow the temperature gap of crystallication, and increase the nucleation frequency. Thus, the solidification time can be shorten, the solute can be well distributied, the shrinkage porosity can be reduced and the grain of crystallization can be fined.展开更多
