凝固收缩(率 • The great fluidity of cast iron and its low shrinkage on solidification make possible close tolerances and considerable freedom in design. 由于铸铁具有良好的流动性和较低的凝固收缩率，故而可获得较高的精度公差和相当大的设计自由度。)
凝固前沿(The dissolved oxygen in steel combines with carbon to give carbon monoxide gas, which is released at the solidification front. 钢中的溶解氧与碳结合生成的一氧化碳气体在凝固前沿逸出。)
凝固阶段(A long funnel mold (2.2 metres), called H2 mold (Fig. 2) minimizes the stress during the first stage of solidification. 长漏斗形结晶器(2. 2m 长)亦称 H² 结晶器(见图 2),可使凝固第一阶段的应力降至最低。)
钢水凝固过程(The design of the DIAMOLD is based on a thermo-mechanical model of the steel solidification process in the mold, the temperature of the strand shell and the thermal expansion of the copper mold. 钻石形结晶器的设计是根据结晶器内钢水凝固过程的热力学模型、铸坯壳温度以及铜结晶器热膨胀进行的。)
均匀凝固(To uniformly distribute the liquid steel onto the two rolls is a precondition for uniform solidification and stable operation. 均匀地将钢水分布到两个辊子上是均匀凝固和稳定操作的前提条件。)
