After presenting a review of some applications of computational fluid mechanics (CFD) to ironmaking processes in Part 1, the authors now explore the use and extent of CFD in steelmaking and steel casting processes. Steelmaking processes generally include the basic oxygen furnace, electric arc furnace or equivalent, the ladle and continuous casting and incorporating a tundish and moulds. All these steelmaking processing steps involve highly coupled complex transport phenomena. The use of CFD to model such processes has been an active area of research for the last three decades. Many models have been developed to predict mixing behaviour, slag foaming, gas-liquid interactions, multiphase flows, as well as heat and mass transfer aspects. In the present review, the role of CFD in modelling steelmaking operations is reviewed, discussed and critiqued.
