THERMAL NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF THE COOLING-DOWN SEQUENCE OF HIGH ZIRCONIA FUSED-CAST REFRACTORIES

摘要

The work related in this paper concerns the numerical simulation of the cooling of fused-cast refractories, carried out in the frame of the French research program NOREV. This program aims to improve the knowledge of the casting process and the thermomechanical properties of High Zirconia refractories, and to assist the development of new material and the improvement of process.
