Abstract

The purpose of the investigation is to review the published literature concerning investigatlons of the effects of hot reduction and other factors have on the structure, properties, and performance of continuously cast steel products. Of principle interest is the recognition of a minimum reduction ratio needed to provide steel with acceptable design options for industrial customers. The minimum reduction or rolling ratio is the cross-sectional area of the cast billet divided by the corresponding area of the final rolled product required to assure the breakdown of the as cast structure, and the attainment of satisfactory mechanical properties. The investigation is also to determine the status of the development of a means of predicting or modeling the effects of various steel production parameters on the characteristic structural and mechanical properties of continuous cast billets. The review will also investigate the methodology researchers are utilizing to analyze this problem. This includes analysis of the design of experimental methods and techniques, population sampling, control, measurement, reliability and verification.
