Simulation of Microstructures in Solidification of Continuous Casting Aluminum Alloy Thin Strip

Abstract:

Based on the research on the solidification of twin-roll continuous casting aluminum alloy thin strip, the analytical model of heterogeneous nucleation, the growth kinetics of tip (KGT) of twin-roll continuous casting aluminum alloy thin strip solidification are established by means of the principle of metal solidification, meantime based on the cellular automaton, the emulational model of twin-roll continuous casting aluminum alloy thin strip solidification is established. The foundation for the emulational simulation of twin-roll continuous casting thin strip solidification structure is laid. Meanwhile has confirmed the mathematical simulation feasibility by using the solidification process of twin-roll continuous casting aluminum alloy Thin Strip.
