A laboratory scale of continuous casting of a binary solution is experimentally studied. The effect of the casting speed on the geometry of liquid pool, and the temperature distribution is studied. The results indicated that by increasing the casting speed, the liquid pool is stretched vertically for both hypoeutectic and hypereutectic solutions. In the hypoeutectic solution, the cross-section of liquid has a wide open V-shaped area at top, and narrow long leg near the bottom. The mushy zone is mainly formed by column dendrite. In the hypereutectic solution, the liquid pool has a wider and deeper V-shape. The mushy zone of the hypereutectic solution is mainly structured by loose equiaxed dendrites.
