摘要：The main objective of present work is to study the effect of thermal driven buoyancy flow (also called asnatural convection) on solidification process of continuous slab caster. A three dimensional fluid flow, heat transfer andsolidification model is developed and result obtain from model are combined with non-dimensional formula to discussthe role of thermal driven buoyancy force. Result shows the importance of thermal driven buoyancy flow, inertial flowfrom SEN jet and flow through porous media. The strength of thermal driven buoyancy flow depends upon thecharacteristic velocity, temperature difference and porosity of mushy zone. The most effect zone of thermal buoyancyflow is centre of the mould, region away from the meniscus, and mushy zone.
