Abstract

The reasons of occurrence of wave processes on a surface of a liquid metal at a continuous casting of slabs are analyzed. The influence of metal level fluctuations in the crystallizer on the occurrence of emergency situations and the quality of the billet is shown. Recommendations are proposed to reduce the probability of occurrence and development of wave processes.
