Numerical investigation of particle motion at the steel—slag interface in continuous casting using VOF method and dynamic overset grids [PDF]
AbstractThe capillary interactions are prominent for a micro-sized particle at the steel—slag interface. In this study, the dynamics of a spherical particle interacting with the steel—slag interface is numerically investigated using the volume of fluid method in combination with the overset grid technique to account for particle motion. The simulations
