# Industrial Specification: Continuous Casting Machine for Non-Ferrous Metals

## 1. Technical Definition
Industrial machine that continuously solidifies molten non-ferrous metals into semi-finished shapes.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-2.0 MPa casting pressure, 680-750°C mold temperature, 0.1-1.5 m/min casting speed**. Failure boundary: **Mold temperature exceeding 780°C causes copper mold degradation, casting pressure below 0.3 MPa results in incomplete mold filling, casting speed above 2.0 m/min induces centerline segregation**, Mechanism: **Thermal fatigue from cyclic heating/cooling (ΔT&gt;100°C) causes mold crack propagation, solidification shrinkage stress exceeding 150 MPa induces hot tearing, Marangoni convection at 0.15 m/s creates surface defects**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **LMTD Logarithmic Mean Temperature Difference**:

> **Primary Equation**: $Q = U \cdot A \cdot \Delta T_{lm}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Sizing validation for pasteurization and cooling tunnels.

| Symbol | Variable Definition | Localized Reference |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| U | Heat Transfer Coeff | Engineering Constant |
| A | Area | Engineering Constant |
| \Delta T_{lm} | LMTD | Engineering Constant |

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
