6th World Congresses of Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization Rio de Janeiro, 30 May - 03 June 2005, Brazil Design Optimization of a Submerged Entry Nozzle for Minimum Meniscus Turbulent Kinetic Energy K.J.

Pretorius, G.J. de Wet Multidisciplinary Design Optimization Group (MDOG), Department of Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering, University of Pretoria, Pretoria 0002, South Africa. ken@up.ac.za 1. Abstract The paper describes the process to determine the optimum parameters of a Submerged Entry Nozzle (SEN) for minimum meniscus turbulent kinetic energy (i.e., stable meniscus) during the continuous casting of stainless steel slabs. Design variables include the port angle, port height and well depth of the SEN, while the effect of submergence depth is investigated. The SEN is designed for a width range of 1000 mm to 1300 mm, and a casting speed of 1.3 m/min. The Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis of the mold and SEN for two slab widths is performed using the k-ω turbulence model and dynamic adaption of the mesh as in Fluent. The grid generation process is fully parameterized for twelve possible design variables and completely automated. The optimization is performed using LS-OPT’s Central Composite experimental design with 17 design points for the 3 design variables. Different objective functions are considered because of the transient nature of the mold and SEN flow field. Due to the high cost of the function evaluations, only one design iteration is performed. The CFD model is validated using water model results obtained with the University of Pretoria’s 40% mold water model. The validation results show very good agreement of both the base and improved design between the CFD and water model. Fluent is used as the CFD solver. A limited investigation is performed of t
