Description

Finite element calculation method for fillet square billet continuous casting solidification heat transfer
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of steel continuous casting, in particular to a finite element calculation method for fillet square billet continuous casting solidification heat transfer.
Background
The square billet is a billet with a square cross section produced by a continuous casting machine and is widely used for processing sectional materials, wires and the like. The steel produced by the square billet is rich in variety and almost covers the whole carbon content range of the steel. In recent years, with the continuous development of the steel industry, the variety of the square billet alloy is gradually expanded, and the content of the square billet alloy is gradually increased. With the increase of the alloy content, the crack sensitivity of the steel grade is improved, various quality defects are more easily generated in the continuous casting process, and the requirement on the cooling uniformity is stronger.
Transverse cracks often appear at the corners of the billet. When the casting blank is straightened at 700-900 ℃, because elements such as microalloy Nb, V, Al, B and the like are combined with nitrogen in steel to form nitride and are precipitated at the grain boundary at the temperature, the surface of the casting blank has transverse cracks under the action of straightening stress, and the blank temperature of the casting blank in a straightening area needs to be more than 900 ℃. The subcutaneous cracks mostly occur at 1/4 of the thickness of the square billet, and the tiny cracks are vertical to the surface, the main reason is that the surface temperature of the casting blank repeatedly changes to cause phase change, the shell of the blank is heated to expand, the solidification front edge causes tensile strain, when the tensile strain at a certain local position exceeds the limit deformation value of the position, the fracture phenomenon is generated, and the fracture phenomenon continues to expand along the interface of two-phase tissues to finally form the cracks. Therefore, a reasonable secondary cooling zone cooling system needs to be established, and the surface temperature return of the casting blank is prevented from exceeding 100 ℃/m. The triangular region cracks are mainly due to uneven cooling along the width direction of the casting blank, in the final stage of solidification, part of molten steel in a higher-temperature region in the casting blank is not solidified, an adjacent lower-temperature region is basically solidified, when the tensile stress borne by the solidification front edge exceeds the critical value of steel, a blank shell is torn, and cracks are formed if adjacent molten steel cannot be fully filled, so that a secondary cooling system needs to be reasonably designed.
Therefore, the uniform cooling of the round-corner square billet in the crystallizer and the secondary cooling zone plays an important role in reducing the surface and internal defects of the casting billet. In order to realize uniform cooling of the fillet square billet, an online square billet regulating and controlling system is established, the temperature change condition of the fillet square billet at each moment is predicted quickly and accurately, and the cooling water amount is regulated in real time. The key point of the on-line billet regulation and control system lies in the determination of a solidification heat transfer core algorithm, namely the establishment of a billet solidification heat transfer model.
In the prior art, chinese patent "simulation and recurrence system of bloom continuous casting production process" with document No. CN 101559480B adopts rectangular meshes to divide tracking units, corners of a square billet are often rounded corners in actual production, the rectangular meshes are adopted for approximate simulation, the calculation accuracy on the boundary is greatly reduced, and the calculated corner temperature does not accord with the actual temperature; in chinese patent CN101347822B, "method for detecting continuous casting of bloom in-line temperature field and method for controlling secondary cooling water", the tracking units are divided by rectangular grids, and the calculation accuracy cannot be guaranteed; the chinese patent CN 100561383C, "secondary cooling of slab continuous casting and off-line simulation system under dynamic soft reduction" mainly solves the technical problem of excessive adjustment of parameters under dynamic soft reduction in production practice, and the patent does not consider how to handle fillet.
In summary, although the establishment of the square billet solidification heat transfer model and the calculation of the temperature field at each moment in the continuous casting process have great significance for regulating and controlling cooling water in real time to realize uniform cooling of the round-corner square billet and improve the quality of a casting blank, the prior model fails to consider the round corner of the square billet and cannot accurately simulate the temperature change condition of the round-corner square billet in actual production.

The embodiment provides a temperature distribution cloud chart of 425mm × 320mm round-corner large square billets in a certain domestic steel mill at different rollers of a continuous casting machine, as shown in fig. 3, wherein the chart (a) is the temperature distribution cloud chart of casting blanks at the outlet of a crystallizer, and the distance between the diagram (a) and the meniscus is 0.66 m; FIG. (b) is a cloud of temperature distributions of the cast slab at roll No. 6, here 1.848m from the meniscus; FIG. (c) is a cloud of temperature distributions of the cast slab at roll # 11, here from meniscus 2.948 m; FIG. d is a cloud of temperature distributions of the cast slab at roll 16, here spaced 4.318m from the meniscus; FIG. (e) is a cloud of temperature distributions of the cast slab at roll # 21, here spaced 5.857m from the meniscus; FIG. f is a cloud of temperature distributions of the cast slab at roll number 26, here spaced 7.863m from the meniscus; the corner calculated temperature is compared to the measured temperature as shown in figure 4. The round corner square billet corner calculated temperature was compared with the square corner square billet corner calculated temperature as shown in fig. 5. As can be seen from FIG. 3, the heat is gradually dissipated by the crystallizer and secondary cooling, and the heat is gradually transferred from the inner part of the billet to the surface. The corner temperature is significantly lower than the temperature at other locations on the surface, subject to two-dimensional heat transfer. In the crystallizer, the temperature field has better symmetry. Along with the solidification, the high-temperature liquid phase area in the square billet is gradually reduced, and meanwhile, the influence of the secondary cooling uneven cooling on the solidification heat transfer is gradually shown. It can be seen from fig. 4 that the simulation calculation result substantially corresponds to the actual temperature, and the temperature curve shows oscillation under the influence of the alternate change of the heat transfer conditions. It can be seen from figure 5 that there is obvious difference between fillet square billet and square angle square billet corner temperature, and fillet square billet corner temperature curve shows that the oscillation is obviously weaker than square angle square billet, this is because square angle square billet corner has three kinds of heat transfer conditions of rolling contact, anhydrous radiation, and water convection in two cold areas, and fillet square billet corner only has two kinds of heat transfer boundaries of anhydrous radiation, water convection, consequently can not ignore the fillet when calculating fillet square billet continuous casting solidification heat transfer, needs to be with its special treatment.
