The research work done in the last three decades has made continuous casting an advanced and sophisticated technology. The continuous casting process comprises many complicated phenomena in terms of fluid flow, heat transfer and structural deformation. The important numerical modeling method of the continuous casting process has been discussed in reference in this work. The present work describes molten steel flow, heat transfer, solidification, formation of the shell by solidification and coupling, etc. Continuous casting process is presently a well-established manufacturing process for steel production. The continuous casting process comprises many complicated phenomena in terms of fluid flow, heat transfer, and structural deformation. To achieve efficient and effective production, the manufacturers of steel keep on searching for new methods which increase productivity. One such kind of method has become more popular to use optimizing using numerical modeling. It describes molten steel flow, formation of the shell by solidification. With the recent advancement in metallurgical methods, the continuous casting process now becomes the main method for steel production. To achieve efficient and effective production, the manufacturers of steel keep on searching for new methods which increase productivity. In this work, we have studied and reviewed the literature to provide current information on the numerical modeling of continuous casting processes.

abstract = {The research work done in the last three decades has made continuous casting an advanced and sophisticated technology. The continuous casting process comprises many complicated phenomena in terms of fluid flow, heat transfer and structural deformation. The important numerical modeling method of the continuous casting process has been discussed in reference in this work. The present work describes molten steel flow, heat transfer, solidification, formation of the shell by solidification and coupling, etc. Continuous casting process is presently a well-established manufacturing process for steel production. The continuous casting process comprises many complicated phenomena in terms of fluid flow, heat transfer, and structural deformation. To achieve efficient and effective production, the manufacturers of steel keep on searching for new methods which increase productivity. One such kind of method has become more popular to use optimizing using numerical modeling. It describes molten steel flow, formation of the shell by solidification. With the recent advancement in metallurgical methods, the continuous casting process now becomes the main method for steel production. To achieve efficient and effective production, the manufacturers of steel keep on searching for new methods which increase productivity. In this work, we have studied and reviewed the literature to provide current information on the numerical modeling of continuous casting processes.},
