Résumé
In the present work, the impact of hot top geometry and thermal history on the Columnar-to-Equiaxed Transition (CET) point, of a 12 MT steel ingot was determined using finite element modeling. Experimental validation of the model was conducted on an industrial-size ingot, focusing on temperature, macrosegregation, and shrinkage microporosity. The anticipated Columnar-to-Equiaxed Transition point, influenced by the interaction of solid front rate, thermal gradient, and solid fraction was considered in the analysis. The findings revealed a shift in the CET position in new configurations, up to 56 mm, 63 mm, and 60 mm from the ingot wall in the bottom, middle, and top of the ingot, respectively. The changes are attributed to variations in the kinetics of solidification, particularly the solidification time. Thermo-mechanical phenomena, encompassing mold filling, cooling, solutal convection, and flow driven by shrinkage, were incorporated into the model to predict macrosegregation and the risk of porosity and shrinkage cavity formation for different hot top geometries. A criterion is proposed that allows mitigating macrosegregation and minimizing the risk of porosity and shrinkage cavity.
