Abstract
The heat transfer in steel continuous casting process under mold oscillation was calculated, and temperature fluctuation phenomena was found in the initial solidification area, the maximum value was approximate 16 °C. The effect of different continuous casting parameters on temperature fluctuation were analyzed, and the temperature fluctuation was considered to be a key factor to the formation of oscillation marks. The Index of Temperature Fluctuation(ITF) was proposed to predict the effect of temperature fluctuation on the formation of billet surface defects.
