A final electromagnetic stirring model was developed for billet continuous casting of high carbon steel using the commercial software ANSYS and CFX, and the numerical model was validated by the magnetic flux density measured under a Teslameter CT-3. The magnetic flux density and fluid flow in the liquid pool at the location of final electromagnetic stirring(F-EMS) were calculated by the present numerical model. Meanwhile, the plant trials were carried out to determine the optimum current intensity and frequency of F-EMS for the continuously cast billet of high carbon steel. The numerical results show that, through increasing the current intensity by 100 A, the corresponding increases of magnetic induction intensity, tangential electromagnetic force and flow velocity at the solid/liquid interface in the strand are 0.025 T, 1933 N/m3 and 6.9 cm/s, respectively. Moreover, the industrial trial results showed that for the continuously cast billet of 60 steel, the optimum current intensity and frequency of F-EMS, which is 8.2 m from the meniscus, are respectively 380 A and 6 Hz. With the optimum F-EMS parameters, the significant improvement of center segregation of billet is achieved, and the center carbon segregation index in billet reaches 1.04.
