Abstract: The present invention provides a method for casting a slab having a good cast surface. The method includes heating the surface of molten metal on a metal inlet side of a mold by a first heat source so that the following formulas: q?0.87 and c?11.762q+0.3095 are satisfied where c is a cycle time [sec] of turning movement of the first heat source, and q is an average amount of heat input [MW/m2] determined by accumulating an amount of heat input applied by at least the first heat source to the contact region between the upper surface of the slab on the metal inlet side and the mold, along the path of turning movement of the first heat source, and dividing the resultant accumulated value by the cycle time c.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for casting a slab with good cast surface quality. The method includes pouring molten metal 8 into a mold 2 from one of the paired shorter sides of the mold 2 while allowing superheat ?T [° C.], which is a temperature difference obtained by subtracting the melting point Tm [° C.] of the raw material from the temperature Tin [° C.] of the molten material on the surface of the molten metal in the mold and at the pouring point of the molten metal, to satisfy the following Formula (1) and Formula (2): 0.0014?T2 +0.0144?T+699.45>800 ??Formula (1) 0.0008?T2 +0.2472?T+853.
