Which consequence results when insufficient tundish superheat causes incomplete metal flow from the tundish during continuous casting?

💡 Explanation

A 'cold lap' forms because the solidification front advances too rapidly due to heat extraction dominating the cooling rate, resulting in incomplete fusion along seams; therefore, surface defects occur, rather than improved homogeneity under ideal conditions or microstructure alteration.
