Abstract
Horizontal Single Belt Casting (HSBC) is a near net shape strip casting technology that will probably gain significant prominence in the coming years. Fluid mechanics and associated heat and mass transfer are important aspects of any continuous casting process, and the HSBC process is no exception.In this study, mathematical models have been developed, using ANSYS FLUENT 14, to assess various aspects of the HSBC process for the Al–Mg–Sc–Zr system. Specific emphasis is placed on a) the effects of substrate surface properties on strip quality, b) liquid metal-air two-phase interactions and meniscus behavior, c) heat fluxes between the metal and substrate, and d) solidification behavior during strip casting.These predictions are validated against experimental casting results. A 5000 series Al–Mg alloy, with added Sc and Zr, shows exceptional potential as a structural material for aerospace and transportation applications. It is also a suitable material to be produced via the HSBC process. Optical microscopy, SEM and EBSD analyses were conducted to compare the potential advantages of casting this alloy via the HSBC process versus conventionally produced Direct Chill Casting.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
