The nozzle structure has an important effect on the fluid flow in the mold, which can significantly improve the solidified shell and product quality of alloy steel round bloom. The transient fluid flow, heat transfer, and solidification behavior under different nozzle structures and mold electromagnetic stirring (M-EMS) are investigated using a 3D transient mathematical model. The results show that a third small recirculation zone appears near the meniscus after the application of the swirling flow nozzle (SFN). The impact depth of SFN is shallower than that of the original submerged entry nozzle (SEN) impact, and the lower circulation zone is shifted upward. The horizontal swirling flow generated by SFN can significantly weaken the washing of the initial shell by high-temperature steel and improve the uneven growth phenomenon of the inner and outer curved solidified shell caused by mold curvature. The swirling flow produced by M-EMS in the mold can also improve the washing of the initial shell by the high-temperature jet and the uneven growth of the inner and outer curved shell. M-EMS can expand the high-temperature zone in the upper part of the mold, promote the superheat dissipation of the molten steel, and promote the growth of the solidified shell. In addition, after the application of M-EMS, the tangential velocity of –15° SFN in the meniscus is smaller, and the resulting liquid level fluctuation is lower at 5.07 mm, which is less likely to produce slag entrapment and is conducive to improving the quality of round bloom.
