Abstract：The influence of drawing speed and superheat parameters on the temperature field of cast billet was studied.The solidification process of continuous casting of steel 37Mn5 billet for petroleum casing was simulated by software Fluent,the temperature field of solidification heat transfer process of continuous casting billet was analyzed.The distribution of billet temperature field under different superheat and casting speed was discussed.The heat transfer characteristics of continuous cast round billet during solidification were summarized and the process parameters were optimized.The results show that the optimized process parameters can guide the production practice.
