Abstract

The fluid flow in a continuous casting tundish is computed for an optimum parameter setting such that the stresses produced at the walls get minimized. This optimization task is carried out using a Genetic Algorithms based procedure that worked in tandem with a 3-D transient Navier-Stokes equation solver. The fluid flow equations are iteratively solved by using a pressure-based finite volume method, according to the SIMPLER algorithm. The k-ε model is used for achieving the turbulence closure. The numerical simulations reveal how the Genetic Algorithm can be effectively used for optimizing the fluidic design of the tundish.
