Feeding strip into continuous casting mold is a technique that can reduce the central segregation and increase the equiaxed zone ratio of continuous casting slab. Over the past decades, some steel mills have gradually applied this technique, but it still lacks a comprehensive understanding of the control theory of process parameters. Many parameters joint the influence of the steel strip melting process and strip feeding ratio, deciding the inner quality of the slab eventually. Herein, the mechanism and heat transfer of feeding strip technology are analyzed. Parameter sensitivity studies and feeding strip experiments are summarized and some new conclusions are proposed. Finally, some suggestions for industrial production will give an outlook for future work.
