Comparative Analysis of Intocast and Vesuvius Submerged Entry Nozzles (SEN) Using CFD Simulation

The case study focuses on the challenges and subsequent CFD solution for submerged entry nozzle (SEN) analysis. The challenges in analyzing SEN include the need to understand the complex mold flow regimes, phenomena, and terminology, as well as the mechanical behavior of the nozzles. Additionally, the validation of CFD results and the prediction of cracks in the nozzles pose significant challenges.
