The pick-up of dross by the strip is equivalent to a particle deposition process on a moving rough surface. There is a lot of published research about this subject but only a limited amount about rough surfaces, see e.g. [1] for a review. Also, the existing literature deals with gas flows with relatively heavy, large and spherical particles in them. We have a liquid metal flow with lighter non spherical particles and very thin fleeces in it so we should investigate our case more thoroughly.

The project will utilise the state of the art hot dip simulator and analytical suites at Swansea University to characterise the steel surface and correlate this to the dross contamination on the finished steel surface. The project is likely to present opportunities to spend time within the R&D function and production lines of Tata Steel.

Eligibility

Candidates must normally hold an undergraduate degree at 2.1 level (or Non-UK equivalent as defined by Swansea University) in Engineering or similar relevant science discipline. An understanding of additive manufacturing is highly desirable.

English Language requirements: If applicable – IELTS 6.5 overall (with at least 5.5 in each individual component) or Swansea recognised equivalent.

Due to funding restrictions, this scholarship is open to applicants eligible to pay tuition fees at the UK rate only, as defined by UKCISA regulations

Benefits

This scholarship covers the full cost of UK tuition fees and an annual stipend of £20,000.

Additional research expenses will also be available.
