| dc.description.abstract | This project addresses the continuous casting of barstock in certain copper alloys. A superheated reservoir of molten alloy is maintained in a continuously heated holding furnace (tundish) during casting. These tundishes are currently heated exclusively by fuel gas or oil, and are only 20% energy efficient. The proposed system will be 98% energy efficient and eliminate corrosive, polluting waste gases which cause porosity problems due to the entrapment of waste combustion gases in the casting. With reduced porosity, better quality parts can be more elegantly designed and downsized, reducing overall material and energy consumption. | en |
