Method for calculating thickness of blank shell at position of continuous casting roller row and solidification tail end of casting machine
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of metal smelting, and particularly relates to a method for calculating the shell thickness of a blank at a position of a continuous casting roller row and the solidification tail end of a casting machine.
Background
Segregation, particularly center segregation, is an important index for evaluating the quality of steel materials, particularly special steel, and poor segregation control brings serious harm to the service performance of steel processing products. In order to improve the center segregation, an electromagnetic stirring and light pressing device is usually arranged at the tail end of a continuous casting machine, but a plurality of steel enterprises generally need to debug the equipment for a long time, and a proper process is not found for some years or even many years, so that the segregation improvement cannot achieve the expected effect. The reason for this is that the thickness of the shell at the solidification end or at the fixed point is not accurate. Generally, a method of shooting a nail or a mathematical model is adopted to find the measured or calculated blank thickness and the solidification end. Both of these approaches have some limitations and difficulties in application. The nail shooting method is to shoot a steel nail containing a sulfide tracer material into a casting blank which is solidifying, and sampling and analyzing corresponding positions of the casting blank. In the technology for judging the thickness of the blank shell, due to the fact that the two-phase region is partially melted and dissolved to foreign steel and sulfide, the problem of fuzzy identification of the two-phase region boundary exists no matter from the shape of a nail or in a sulfur print tracing mode, and different people of the same sample judge that measurement results may have differences. The following difficulties exist in terms of operation: the novel nail shooting device has the advantages that the existing factory building and equipment arrangement is avoided, and the position of shooting nails can be limited; the preparation process is complicated, the thickness of the blank shell at 1 position is usually detected at one time, and if a plurality of positions are required to be carried out together, the preparation workload is multiplied; the firearms are easy to break down, and the bullet deviation condition can occur due to the installation precision or operation reason; sample preparation process is complicated, and processing of samples is more difficult when the samples meet nail deflection. In the aspect of safety, the nail shooting work is dangerous, the operation area is high in temperature, and the fire risk of firearms exists. In addition, the entrusting of nail shooting business of institutions also requires expense. In short, it is not easy to obtain effective data by the nail shooting method.
The utilization of mathematical models is difficult, and the modeling process from now on needs a talent team with expert programming ability and well-known continuous casting solidification professional knowledge, and the programming process usually takes years; the existing model is utilized, and the problems that whether the model is suitable for the current casting machine (difference of square, round, plate type, specification and the like) and whether the physical property parameters are suitable exist; whether grid division representing calculation accuracy is enough or not is judged, if the grid division representing calculation accuracy is too dense, the calculation speed is too slow, and if the grid division representing calculation accuracy is too sparse, the calculation is not accurate enough; whether the boundary conditions are set properly or not, environmental factors may influence the values of certain physical property parameters, which may influence the accuracy of the calculation result and the adaptability of the calculation process to the field.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to solve the technical problem of providing a method for calculating the thickness of the shell of the continuous casting roller row position and the solidification tail end of a casting machine without a model and a nail, which aims at the prior art, and can optimize the electromagnetic stirring of the tail end, the arrangement of a tool under light pressure and the production process by researching the low power of the continuous casting billet to deduce the thickness of the shell of the continuous casting roller and the solidification tail end of the continuous casting machine, thereby improving the segregation problem of the continuous casting billet and a rolled material.
The technical scheme adopted by the invention for solving the problems is as follows: a method for calculating the shell thickness of a continuous casting roller row position and the solidification tail end of a casting machine is characterized in that a continuous casting billet has zero plasticity temperature and zero strength temperature in a temperature gradient from the surface to the center of the casting blank in a two-phase region in the solidification process, and cracks are generated at the position when the casting blank is deformed due to mechanical pressure during the period; according to a plurality of production practices and certain observation and analysis experiences of the casting blank, the crack points are in an intermittent linear distribution, and cracks generated at the zero plasticity temperature are relatively heavy. The zero plasticity temperature measured by the high temperature tensile test is approximately equal to the solidus temperature.
By utilizing the rule, the thickness of the billet shell at the position of a pulling and straightening roller (a light press roller) can be obtained by measuring the position of a crack point on the continuous casting billet in a macroscopic manner, and the thickness of the hot billet shell during production can be obtained through certain correction; under the condition of knowing roller row position and pulling speed, the square root formula of solidification law is applied
The position of the coagulation tip can be further solved; thus, the effect of nail shooting or solidification model calculation can be realized.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the advantages that:
the method has no safety risk; the high-temperature working environment of the shooting nail is severe, and the risk of accidental fire escape or people injury caused by rebound and refraction of firearms also exists;
the method is convenient and quick, and analysis can be completed within half an hour generally (the preparation time of the nail shooting platform support in the early stage of nail shooting is long, more time is needed for later sample preparation, and the model calculation usually needs a computer to run for a plurality of hours);
according to the method, extra cost is not required to be added (the cost is high when a commercial continuous casting solidification mathematical model is purchased, and a certain cost is required when a scientific research institution is entrusted with a nail shooting test), and the sample is not required to be prepared additionally, so that the analysis can be completely carried out on the ready-made conventional production low-power sample;
the method can analyze the influence of the thickness of the billet shell and the change of the solidification tail end caused by the tooling, the environmental conditions and the like in the same metallurgical process (the difference can not be calculated by a mathematical model), so that the continuous casting process is properly adjusted, and the expected metallurgical effect is realized.

Detailed Description
The invention is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying examples.
Examples are: measuring the distance H between an inner arc and an outer arc of a certain steel casting blank of 200 multiplied by 200 square to be 195mm in low power, wherein the positions of the roller rows are 13.5 meters for a 1# roller, 15 meters for a 2# roller and 16.5 meters for a 3# roller respectively; the continuous casting speed is 1.2 m/min; the casting blank is known to be longitudinally low. And solving the shell thickness of the steel at each roller and the solidification end position of the steel during full solidification in the continuous casting machine process.
According to the known conditions, namely the nominal thickness M of the casting blank is 200mm, and the thickness H of the casting blank in low magnification is 195 mm;
cutting a continuous casting billet low-power sample with the length equivalent to the section size of the casting billet, sawing along the central line of the inner cambered surface and the outer cambered surface to obtain a longitudinal low-power piece with the thickness of 20mm, corroding the continuous casting billet low-power piece with 10-40% of nitric acid aqueous solution in volume percentage for 3-10 minutes after milling, observing the low-power sample by naked eyes or a magnifying glass, finding out point-like cracks layer by layer, and measuring the distance between each layer of crack point and the edge of the casting billet. The distance is the thickness of the blank shell at the position of the pulling and straightening roller (the light pressing roller).
According to the longitudinal low power of the casting blank, the thickness of the blank shell corresponding to each roller on the low power (cold state) is sequentially judged to be 60mm, 75mm and 93mm, and because the casting blank generally exists in a hot state on a continuous casting machine, the thickness of the blank shell needs to be corrected in the hot state, and the specific correction mode is according to the following formula:
in the formula: a is the thickness of the shell at a certain roller measured on the low power (cold state), B is a corrected value, C is the thickness of the shell passing through the certain roller at the moment of production (hot state), M is the nominal thickness of the casting blank, H is the thickness of the casting blank on the low power (inner and outer arc spacing), n is the serial number of the roller row, and the thickness unit is mm.
I.e. a1 ═ 60 mm; b1 ═ 200 + 195 × 60 ÷ 195 ÷ 1.5mm, C1 ═ 60+1.5 ÷ 61.5 mm;
a2 ═ 75 mm; b2 ═ 200 + 195 × 75 ÷ 195 ÷ 1.9mm, C2 ═ 75+1.9 ═ 76.9 mm;
a3 ═ 93 mm; b3 ═ 200-;
namely, the thickness of the shell of the hot casting blank passing through the three rollers is 61.5mm, 76.9mm and 95.4mm in sequence. The results of the calculations are given in the following table
From the above conditions, the comprehensive solidification coefficient can be calculated according to the shell thickness and the pulling rate of the last roll
I.e. the solidification end position of the steel when the process is used on this continuous casting machine is 18.1 meters.
In addition to the above embodiments, the present invention also includes other embodiments, and any technical solutions formed by equivalent transformation or equivalent replacement should fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
