Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for cooling a casting strand emerging from a continuous casting mold during the continuous casting of light metals, in particular aluminum and aluminum alloys, by applying coolant directly to the surface of the strand, in which carbon dioxide or nitrogen gas is released from the coolant at least during the start-up process.
  • heat is removed from the casting strand emerging from the mold by applying coolant to the surface of the strand directly below the mold.
  • the coolant initially only touches the start-up floor.
  • the indirect heat removal that occurs leads to a mild solidification of the liquid metal and to an even formation of the strand base.
  • the coolant hits the surface of the strand, which is associated with a sudden increase in heat dissipation from the casting strand.
  • the thermal stresses that occur as a result of this temperature shock are greater than the tensile strength of the cast strand and lead to permanent deformation in the form of a convex curvature of the strand base and, if the tensile strength is exceeded, also to cracks in the strand.
  • the strand In order to obtain a casting strand with a flat foot, the strand must not be cooled too much during the start-up process.
  • the coolant contains a gas introduced under pressure, for example carbon dioxide or nitrogen, at least during the start-up process.
  • a gas introduced under pressure for example carbon dioxide or nitrogen
  • the inventor has set itself the goal of improving a method of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that the disadvantages mentioned above are eliminated.
  • this object is achieved in that a substance is added to the coolant, which releases the gas as a decomposition product when it hits the hot strand surface.
  • the principle of reducing the cooling intensity by means of an insulating film made of gases can be implemented in a simple manner.
  • the substance can be fed in a highly concentrated form - for example as a saturated solution - from a storage container via a metering pump into a coolant supply line. Since the gas is only formed by the decomposition of the substance when it hits the hot strand surface, no special pressure and mixing devices are required.
  • Suitable substances for carrying out the process are those which give off carbon dioxide or nitrogen when they are decomposed, since they show good solubility in the coolant and do not give off aggressive or harmful gases when decomposed.
  • hydrogen carbonates in particular sodium or ammonium bicarbonate
  • Organic compounds in solution with at least one carboxyl group - for example acids or esters - can also be used.
  • the method can be further developed by adding acid to the substance.
  • substances which release nitrogen as a decomposition product are particularly suitable because they are not in an aqueous equilibrium with nitrogen and consequently show a behavior which is independent of the pH.
  • Ammonium nitrite is particularly suitable as a substance for water as a coolant. This can also be introduced into the coolant as an equimolar mixture of sodium nitrite and ammonium nitrate.
  • the method according to the invention can be implemented both with conventional and with electromagnetic continuous casting molds and is suitable for casting light metals, in particular aluminum and aluminum alloys.
  • concentration of the substance depends on the desired reduction in cooling intensity and is usually on the order of 10- 1 to 10- 3 mol / liter.
  • the supply of the substance to the coolant can be interrupted. If the method is carried out in another way, the concentration of the substance in the coolant is continuously reduced during the start-up process. In certain cases, however, it may prove expedient to maintain the method according to the invention during the entire casting process.
  • an alloy 3004 was cast under normal conditions into bars of the format 500 mm x 1600 mm.
  • the cooling water supply was kept constant at 600 liters / minute during the entire casting process.
  • the substances listed in the table were mixed with the cooling water up to a strand length of 100 mm.
  • a saturated aqueous solution of the respective substance was fed from a storage tank directly into the main via a metering pump Cooling water pipe fed.
  • the concentrations of the substances set in the cooling water are also included in the table.
  • the feed of the substances was interrupted after the start-up during the further pouring process.
