In a method of and apparatus for producing ingots of unalloyed and alloyed steels having an improved primary crystallization, reduced ingot segregation and a reduced content of non-metallic inclusions, molten steel is poured into a mould, a slag mixture is supplied onto said steel, and energy is supplied to the slag mixture via at least one consumable electrode while the steel is solidifying. The slag mixture has a certain height corresponding at most to the relationship 0.15 (A + 100), wherein A is the shortest distance between the inner mould wall and the at least one consumable electrode, given in cm and amounting to at least 5 cm. Also, at least one consumable electrode has dimensions such that the ratio of the electrode cross-sectional area(s) to the mould cross-sectional area amounts to 1:10 at most. |
