The article presents the results of the CFD simulation of the method of medium flow and mixing, as well as the movement and removal of solid particles in the model of two-strand tundish as a result of installed internal arrangement. Two variants including turbulence inhibitor and impact pad with a ball cutting area were modeled for the tests. CFD simulations are a continuation of previous tests with the use of the physical water model of the continuous steel casting (CSC) device.
