This paper presents a new method for metal distribution onto the belt of a horizontal single belt strip caster. Water and liquid tin have been used to study the flow conditions in the feeding zone on the conveyor belt. Tests of a method presented in literature for metal distribution have been conducted and a new method that uses multiple parallel jets in order to obtain stable feeding conditions have been tested. This method gives a controlled way of maintaining a continuous liquid film and it also has a stable meniscus. The freezing problem with a triple point will also be eliminated by use of this method.
