Description

Online forecasting method for casting blank internal crack defect
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of metal casting, and particularly relates to an online forecasting/control method for casting blank internal quality defects in a continuous casting production process.
Background
In the continuous casting process, the casting blank can be deformed under the action of various external forces, and when the slab passes through the bending section, the slab can be subjected to the action of bending stress; when the slab passes through the correction segment, the slab is under the action of correction stress; under the action of the hydrostatic pressure of molten steel, the casting blank can bulge and deform. Under the action of these external forces, the continuously cast slab generates a certain strain, and if the accumulated strain exceeds the critical strain, internal cracks (referred to as internal cracks) occur.
Internal cracking is a common quality defect of a casting blank, and once formed, the internal cracking has great influence on subsequent processing and the comprehensive performance of products. Severe strand internal cracking can lead to strip delamination and even strip breakage during hot rolling.
In general, internal defects of a cast slab always exist once formed, and are difficult to eliminate in a post-processing process.
Therefore, the control of the internal quality of the casting blank can only be carried out in the continuous casting production process, and the occurrence rate of the internal defects of the casting blank is continuously reduced by improving the process and the operation level.
However, the causes of the continuous casting defects are very complex, involve a very large number of factors, and sometimes these factors are interwoven together, making the causes of the defects difficult to define accurately.
When internal crack defects form, the influence of the defects on subsequent processing and product performance is generally reduced through optimized cutting of the casting blank. For example, if there is an internal defect in a partial region of the head end of the cast slab, the defective region can be cut off by optimizing the cutting, thereby ensuring the overall quality of the remaining slab.
However, when the cast slab has an internal crack, the defect portion is surrounded by the solidified slab shell, and online detection cannot be performed.
Conventionally, after the cast slab is completely cut, a sample is taken from the head or the tail of the cast slab, and then the cast slab is checked for internal cracking through a low-power test. Since the low-power test period is generally about 2 days, this can seriously affect the logistic connection between continuous casting and hot rolling, and in practice, all the casting blanks cannot be sampled and tested.
For these reasons, people have been exploring how to predict defects in a cast slab.
The defect prediction has two functions: when the defects of the casting blank occur, the forecast result provides information for field operation engineers or process personnel, and the control parameters of the production process are adjusted in time under possible conditions, so that the duration of the defects of the casting blank is shortened as much as possible; according to the forecast information of the defects of the casting blank, the cutting process of the defective casting blank is controlled and optimized, and the product percent of pass is improved.
Regarding a method for predicting defects of a casting blank, chinese patent publication No. CN1269595C, 8/16/2006, discloses a method for predicting longitudinal cracks on the surface of a casting blank due to abnormal cooling of a mold, in which at least three rows of transverse thermocouples and at least three longitudinal thermocouples are embedded below the liquid level of molten steel in the mold, and these temperatures are read in by a data acquisition system, and data analysis is performed. The data analysis step at least comprises: under the condition of stable pulling speed, the temperature of a certain thermocouple in a certain row suddenly drops, and the speed reaches more than 3 ℃/s; the temperature of two thermocouples in the same row under the thermocouple also successively has a descending trend with the speed of more than 3 ℃/s, and the product of the time difference of the temperature of two adjacent thermocouples starting to descend and the instant pulling speed is exactly equal to the distance between the two thermocouples; the temperature of the three thermocouples in the row changes with time in a consistent mode, and the time for the temperature of the lower row of thermocouples to continuously decrease is not less than the time for the temperature of the upper row of thermocouples to continuously decrease. Therefore, according to the technical scheme, a certain number of thermocouples are arranged at a certain position of the crystallizer, so that the temperature fluctuation in the crystallizer is monitored in real time. When the temperature fluctuation exceeds a certain range and meets a certain condition, the occurrence of the longitudinal crack defect of the casting blank can be judged.
The above method is applicable only to defects on the surface of a cast slab caused by abnormal fluctuation of the temperature of the mold.
According to related researches, the main reasons for triggering the internal crack defect are as follows: the deformation caused by the action of external force on a solid-liquid interface in the incompletely solidified casting blank exceeds a critical strain value, wherein the strain comprises bending strain, straightening strain, bulging strain and the like. However, although the strain is closely related to the crack defect in the cast slab, the strain itself is difficult to detect.

When the model computer judges that the casting blank has internal cracks, the specific position of the internal cracks is recorded, and the duration time of the internal cracks is tracked to finally determine the area covered by the internal cracks on the casting blank.
And after the model computer completes the calculation, the calculation result information is transmitted to a process computer for controlling the cutting of the casting blank through a network, and the casting blank is optimally cut according to the characteristics of the severity of the defect, the size of the region and the like, so that the yield of the product is improved.

Wherein: t isTDThe tundish temperature and TS the solid phase temperature.
The heat conduction equation and boundary conditions for describing the heat dissipation process of the casting blank are given above, and the equation needs to be discretized and converted into a heat conduction equation in a differential format for solving in actual calculation.
In addition, because the temperature information and the solidification thickness information of the continuous casting slab at all positions are calculated, the whole casting blank is divided into a series of slices along the casting direction for the convenience of computer solution.
The so-called "slice" can be regarded as a thin slice equal to the cross-sectional area of the cast slab, and the positional relationship and coordinate positioning of the slice and the cast slab are schematically shown in the attached fig. 3 and 4 of the specification.
Since both figures are represented by means and symbols commonly used in the art, the meaning and represented information will be fully understood by those skilled in the art and will not be described herein.
The chips are produced at the meniscus of the crystallizer and then move along with the cast slab, and are automatically destroyed after being discharged from the casting machine. And (4) performing heat transfer calculation of the casting blank on the slices, and periodically calculating. During casting, the temperature of the surface and the interior of the cast strand is continuously varied. Therefore, temperature information at any position of the cast slab can be obtained by interpolation calculation based on the temperature field information on each cast slab slice. The solidification thickness of the cast slab can be calculated from the temperature field information and the solid phase temperature, and all the calculations are also performed on the sliced piece of the cast slab.
Based on the casting blank state information obtained by the calculation, various strains generated when the casting blank is subjected to external force can be calculated according to a strain formula, and further, the quality condition in the casting blank is judged according to the variation trend of the strains.
The following gives a specific calculation procedure for defect prediction, which is repeated periodically:
a) collecting casting blank production process parameters and determining boundary conditions of casting blank heat dissipation calculation.

f) And if the casting blank is judged to have internal cracks, calculating specific defect information, transmitting the specific defect information to a cutting computer, and optimally controlling the cutting process of the casting blank.
For step a), collecting process parameters related to the heat transfer process of the casting blank, including steel type, tundish molten steel temperature, thickness, drawing speed, width, cooling water flow and the like. According to the data, boundary conditions for the calculation of the heat transfer of the casting blank are determined, and the total heat transferred to the outside by the casting blank in unit time is determined. And updating the initial value and the boundary condition of the heat transfer calculation of the casting blank at fixed period along with the movement of the casting blank.
For the step b), the heat quantity dissipated to the outside by the casting blank during the cooling process can be calculated by the following formula:
φ=h(Us-Uw)(w/m2) (4)
where phi is the intensity of outward heat dissipation per unit area, UsIs the surface temperature of the cast slab, UwIs the temperature of the cooling water, h is the heat dissipation coefficient of the casting blank surface, and is calculated by the following formula:
h=kwrwara (5)
wherein w is the water flow density and rw is the water volume factor; a is gas density, ra is gas coefficient, and k is constant.
The water flow density is calculated by taking the cooling area as a unit, calculating the total water spray amount of a certain cooling area on the upper surface of the casting blank, and dividing the total water spray amount by the area of the cooling area to obtain the water flow density. The calculation method of the gas density is the same, and the description is not repeated here.
At each moment, the heat dissipation coefficient of the surface of the casting blank is firstly calculated according to the cooling water quantity and the cooling air quantity, then the heat dissipated from the surface of the casting blank in unit time is calculated on the basis of the heat dissipation coefficient, and further the internal and external temperature fields of the casting blank are obtained according to the physical property parameters of the steel type.
In step c), it is noted that the solidification of the steel does not simply change from liquid to solid, but as the temperature decreases, there is a two-phase region, which we usually refer to as "mushy zone". Below the solidus temperature of the steel grade, the molten steel can be completely transformed into a solid. When the solidification thickness of the casting blank is calculated, the solidification rate of each position on the casting blank is firstly calculated, and then the solidification thickness is calculated according to the solidification rate.
The formula for calculating the coagulation rate is:
fs = T l - T c T l - T s - - - ( 6 )
wherein fs is the solidification rate of the cast slab, TlIs the liquidus temperature, T, of the steelsIs the solidus temperature, T, of the steelcIs the temperature on the centerline of the slab.

For step e), the critical strain at which the slab cracks due to deformation under stress is generally between 0.5% and 0.8%. However, due to the difference of chemical components and mechanical properties, the ultimate strain that a casting blank can bear is related to the steel grade, and specific numerical values are obtained through process tests.
In practical application, steel grades are classified in advance, critical strain values are set for each steel grade, and the parameters are stored in a database of a forecasting model.
