# Industrial Specification: Smart Continuous Casting System for Non-Ferrous Alloys

## 1. Technical Definition
Automated production line for continuous casting of non-ferrous metal alloys

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-2.0 MPa (mold pressure), 680-750°C (melt temperature), 0.1-1.5 m/min (casting speed)**. Failure boundary: **Mold pressure exceeds 2.5 MPa causing mold deformation, melt temperature drops below 660°C (aluminum solidus), casting speed exceeds 2.0 m/min causing shell rupture**, Mechanism: **Thermal stress-induced mold distortion at ΔT&gt;150°C, constitutional supercooling at cooling rates &gt;100°C/s, hydrodynamic instability at Reynolds number &gt;2300 in mold channel**.

### 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 |
