The process of continuous casting of steel is a modern and the most effective method of obtaining steel cast strands due to its standardization, automation and production process continuity, which brings about high quality and very high yield. The presented paper shows the Procast service, a distributed solver that is explicitly designed for the simulation of the continuous casting of steel on a grid platform. This service calculates temperature and solid fraction distributions for the selected machine geometry and user-specified material data and boundary conditions. This article presents a continuous casting simulation for the S235 steel cast with an industrial continuous casting machine. In addition, the speed-up and efficiency of calculations for various numbers of calculation nodes and sizes of finite element mesh is presented. We characterize some commercial programs for parallel computing of the continuous casting model as well.
