Thermo-elastic-plastic analysis with phase change during continuous casting
Abstract
The finite element formules of temperature fields and thermo-elastic-plastic material model including phase change have been developed. Using proper assumptions, the problem of 3-D steady heat conduction during continuous casting is translated into the 2-D transient problem. A action of the latent heat is considered as equivalent specific heat. In addition, numerical solutions of the temperature and stress analysis in solidifying cast are given in this paper.
