Abstract
Combined with the parameters of the production process of a steel factory, numerical simulations for a new ladle from preheating to turnover are conducted using the finite element analysis system software (ANSYS). The measured data proved that the simulated results are reliable. The effects of preheating time, thermal cycling times, and empty package time on steel temperature are calculated, an ideal preheating time is provided, besides, based on the analysis of a single factor and use the nonlinear analysis method, a steel temperature compensating model with diversified coupling factors is proposed, with the largest error of the present coupling model at 1.462 °C, and the errors between actual and target steel temperature in tundish after the model is applied to practical production are basically controlled within ± 6 °C, which can meet the accuracy of the manufacturer and has a practical guiding significance for the production in steelmaking workshops.
