Abstract

1. A refractory tuyere holding element for a vessel for treating a liquid metal, of the type which comprises a refractory mass surrounding an injection tuyere, said refractory mass being provided with passages connected to a source of pressurized auxiliary protection fluid which opens into the liquid metal bath, characterized in that it consists of a plurality of subelements made of compact refractory material (2, 3, 4, 5) separated by narrow slits performing the role of said passages and connected to a source (16) of liquid or gaseous carbonaceous agent.

Description

L'invention concerne un élément rdfractaire porte-tuyère pour récipient de traitement d'un métal liquide, du type comportant une masse réfractaire entourant une tuyère d'injection, ladite masse réfractaire étant dotée de passages reliés à une source de fluide auxiliaire sous pression et débouchant dans le bain de métal liquide.The invention relates to a refractory nozzle-holder element for a container for treating a liquid metal, of the type comprising a refractory mass surrounding an injection nozzle, said refractory mass being provided with passages connected to a source of pressurized auxiliary fluid and opening into the liquid metal bath.

On sait qu'avec les tuyères à oxygène protégées actuelles, c'est l'usure du réfractaire environnant et non plus celle des tuyères qui est le facteur déterminant pour la durée de mise en service des fonds de convertisseurs.It is known that with the current protected oxygen nozzles, it is the wear of the surrounding refractory and no longer that of the nozzles which is the determining factor for the duration of commissioning of the converter bottoms.

Il a déjà été tenté de protéger les fonds de convertisseurs contre les effets thermiques et d'érosion en utilisant des éléments du type précité avec un fluide auxiliaire gazeux de refroidissement qui d'une part abaisse la température dans la zone autour de l'injecteur, et d'autre part forme un matelas gazeux protégeant la surface de soufflage.It has already been attempted to protect the converter bottoms against thermal and erosion effects by using elements of the aforementioned type with a gaseous auxiliary cooling fluid which on the one hand lowers the temperature in the area around the injector, and on the other hand forms a gas mattress protecting the blowing surface.

Un tel élément est connu par exemple par le brevet français n° 1 347 014. Dans l'élément décrit par ce brevet, lesdits passaqes sont réalisés de préférence par la masse réfractaire rendue poreuse à cet effet ou, par des fins canaux ménagés artificiellement dans une masse réfractaire compacte. Au point de vue technologique, ceci présente le double inconvénient de réserver le dispositif au passage d'un fluide auxiliaire à l'état gazeux (car trop de résistance s'opposerait au passage d'un liquide), et d'autre part, d'être d'une fabrication délicate (notamment pour la réalisation de fins canaux artificiels). En outre, l'expérience montre que les résultats obtenus ne sont pas pleinement satisfaisants et que le domaine d'application reste limité.Such an element is known for example from French patent n ° 1 347 014. In the element described by this patent, said pasaqes are preferably made by the refractory mass made porous for this purpose or, by fine channels artificially formed in a compact refractory mass. From the technological point of view, this has the double disadvantage of reserving the device for the passage of an auxiliary fluid in the gaseous state (because too much resistance would oppose the passage of a liquid), and on the other hand, d '' be of a delicate manufacture (in particular for the realization of fine artificial channels). Furthermore, experience shows that the results obtained are not fully satisfactory and that the field of application remains limited.

L'invention a pour but de proposer un élément exempt des inconvénients précités, facile à réaliser, et permettant une protection efficace des réfractaires environnant les tuyères de convertisseur.The object of the invention is to propose an element free from the above-mentioned drawbacks, easy to produce, and allowing effective protection of the refractories surrounding the converter nozzles.

Ce but est atteint, conformément à l'invention, du fait due l'élément réfractaire comprend un assersblage de plusieurs sous-éléments réfractaires compacts séparés par des fentes minces réalisant le rôle desdits passages et reliées à une source d'agent carboné liquide ou gazeux susceptible d'apporter, par imprégnation des couches supérieures de l'élément réfractaire, du carbone protecteur.This object is achieved, in accordance with the invention, due to the refractory element comprises an assemblage of several compact refractory sub-elements separated by thin slits performing the role of said passages and connected to a source of liquid or gaseous carbonated agent capable of providing protective carbon by impregnating the upper layers of the refractory element.

L'assemblage de sous-éléments peut être avantageusement ceinturé par une enveloppe de tôle et être maintenu à distance d'une plaoue de fono de manière à former un espace de répartition de l'agent carboné, lequel est de préférence un hydrccarbure, et, avantageusement du fuel licuide.The assembly of sub-elements can be advantageously belted by a sheet metal envelope and be kept at a distance from a fono plate so as to form a space for distribution of the carbonaceous agent, which is preferably a hydrocarbon, and, advantageously of licuid fuel.

L'invention concerne également un procédé de prévention de l'usure des réfractaires du fond d'un récipient métsilurqique comportant des éléments porte-tuyère du type mentionné en tête de ce mémoire. Selon le procédé de l'invention, on injecte au travers de fentes minces traversant la masse réfractaire un agent carboné liquide ou gazeux, de préférence un hydrocarbure tel que du fuel liquide, susceptible d'apporter, par impréonation des couches supérieures de l'élément réfractaire, du carbone protecteur.The invention also relates to a method of preventing wear of the refractories from the bottom of a metsiluric container comprising nozzle-holder elements of the type mentioned at the head of this thesis. According to the process of the invention, a liquid or gaseous carbonated agent, preferably a hydrocarbon such as liquid fuel, is injected through thin slits passing through the refractory mass, by impregnation of the upper layers of the element. refractory, protective carbon.

Comme on le comprend, l'un des aspects déterminants de l'invention réside dans le fait que l'on crée autour du nez de la tuyère où débouche l'oxygène d'affinage, une aire de diffusion du fuel pour imprégner de carbone la surface et les couches supérieures du réfractaire.As will be understood, one of the determining aspects of the invention resides in the fact that around the nose of the nozzle where the refining oxygen opens, a fuel diffusion area is created to impregnate carbon with the surface and upper layers of the refractory.

Ce carbone a un double rôle de protection chimiaue contre les oxydes de fer (tel que Fe0) agressant le réfractaire, et de protection thermomécanique en créant une couche dotée d'une certaine élasticité.This carbon has a double role of chemical protection against iron oxides (such as Fe0) attacking the refractory, and thermomechanical protection by creating a layer endowed with a certain elasticity.

L'invention sera mieux comprise grâce à la description de deux modes de réalisation préférés, en se référant aux dessins annexés sur lesquels :

  • - la figure 1 représente en coupe verticale, et sans respect des proportions réelles, de la partie inférieure d'un premier mode de réalisation de l'invention.
  • - la figure 2 est une coupe verticale d'un second mode de réalisation de l'invention.
  • - la fiqure 3 est une section horizontale III-III de la figure 2.
The invention will be better understood from the description of two preferred embodiments, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
  • - Figure 1 shows in vertical section, and without respecting the actual proportions, of the lower part of a first embodiment of the invention.
  • - Figure 2 is a vertical section of a second embodiment of the invention.
  • - Figure 3 is a horizontal section III-III of Figure 2.

La figure 1 montre un élément réfractaire 1 dont la forme est sensiblement celle d'un tronc de pyramide à base rectangle se rétrécissant légèrement vers le haut. A titre purement indicatif, l'élément peut avoir une base de 15G x 110 mm2 à la partie inférieure et de 142 x I05 mm2 à la partie supérieure, pour 275 mm de hauteur.Figure 1 shows a refractory element 1 whose shape is substantially that of a pyramid trunk with a rectangular base tapering slightly upwards. For information only, the element may have a base of 15G x 110 mm 2 at the bottom and 142 x 105 mm 2 at the top, for 275 mm in height.

L'élément 1 est constitué de quatre sous-éléments 2, 3, 4, 5 juxtaposés, formés par des plaquettes en matériau réfractaire compact classique, par exemple en magnésie. Ces plaquettes sont assemblées par une enveloppe métallique 6 de 1,5 mm d'épaisseur. Une fente étroite 17 est maintenue entre les plaquettes voisines grâce à des entretoises filiformes 7 calibrées (par exemple de 0,1 mm de diamètre).Element 1 consists of four sub-elements 2, 3, 4, 5 juxtaposed, formed by plates of conventional compact refractory material, for example in magnesia. These plates are assembled by a metal casing 6 1.5 mm thick. A narrow slot 17 is maintained between the neighboring plates by means of threaded spacers 7 calibrated (for example 0.1 mm in diameter).

La tôle 6 est soudée à une plaque de fond 8 de 3 mm d'épaisseur, dent les plaquettes réfraetaires 2, 3, 4, 5 sont maintenues séparées par des cales 9 de hauteur calibrée permettant de réserver un espace 10 de 2 d'épaisseur par exemple.The sheet 6 is welded to a bottom plate 8 3 mm thick, tooth the refractory plates 2, 3, 4, 5 are kept separated by shims 9 of calibrated height making it possible to reserve a space 10 of 2 in thickness for example.

La tuyère de soufflage d'oxygène est logée dans un évidement cylindrique 12 de 22 ssa de diamètre réalisé entre les deux plaquettes centrales 3 et 4.The oxygen blowing nozzle is housed in a cylindrical recess 12 of 22 ssa in diameter produced between the two central plates 3 and 4.

Sur la figure 1 on a monté dans l'évidement 12 une tuyère double constituée du tube central 11 de soufflage d'oxygène relié à une source d'oxygène 14 et du tube extérieur 13 laissant un passage annulaire pour du fuel alimenté par une source 15.In Figure 1 there is mounted in the recess 12 a double nozzle consisting of the central tube 11 for blowing oxygen connected to an oxygen source 14 and the outer tube 13 leaving an annular passage for fuel supplied by a source 15 .

L'espace inférieur 10 est alimenté en fuel par une deuxième source 16, au travers de la plaque de fond 8. Dans cet espace se répartit le fuel à une pression de 4 à 5 bars, qui alimente les fentes 17, et débouche avec une vitesse sensiblement voisine de zéro dans le métal, ce qui assure sa diffusion.The lower space 10 is supplied with fuel by a second source 16, through the bottom plate 8. In this space the fuel is distributed at a pressure of 4 to 5 bars, which feeds the slots 17, and opens with a speed substantially close to zero in the metal, which ensures its diffusion.

Dans le mode de réalisation de la figure 2, on met à profit le jeu de montage entre le tube 11 et l'évidement 12 dans lequel il est directement monté, pour lui faire jouer le rôle de l'espace annulaire de la tuyère double. Cet espace abbykaure peut alors être alimenté directement par l'espace 10 de répartition de fuel, ce qui supprime la nécessité d'une alimentation indépendante 15.In the embodiment of Figure 2, we take advantage of the mounting clearance between the tube 11 and the recess 12 in which it is directly mounted, to make it play the role of the annular space of the double nozzle. This abbykaure space can then be supplied directly by the fuel distribution space 10, which eliminates the need for an independent supply 15.

Des bossages 18 du tube 11 permettent de maintenir l'écartement radial auffisabt (par exemple 1 axa) entre le tube 11 et l'évidement 12.Bosses 18 of the tube 11 make it possible to maintain the radial spacing auffisabt (for example 1 axa) between the tube 11 and the recess 12.

Si l'on ne désire pas protéger la tuyère, on peut bourrer le jeu de montage par un produit de jointement adéquat.If you do not want to protect the nozzle, you can stuff the mounting clearance with a suitable sealant.

Les plaquettes 2, 3, 4, 5 peuvent âtre nues, ou, au moins partiellement, entôlées, par exemple sur leurs faces délimitant des fentes 17 afin de faciliter l'éavulesent du fuel ou d'éviter une infiltration de celui- ci dans la masse de l'élément. Par ailleurs, les entretoises d'espacement faites ne sont pas absolument indispensables, de sorte que les fentes de passage 17 peuvent parfaitement être obtenues par simple juxtspoaition des plaquettes réfractaires entre elles.The plates 2, 3, 4, 5 can be bare, or, at least partially, buried, for example on their faces delimiting slots 17 in order to facilitate the evacuation of the fuel or to avoid its infiltration in the mass of the element. Furthermore, the spacers made are not absolutely essential, so that the passage slots 17 can perfectly be obtained by simple juxtspoaition of the refractory plates therebetween.

Comme on l'a déjà mentionné, l'invention ne se limite pas à l'utilisation du fuel mis s'accooode de tout autre agent hydrooarboné, de préférence liquide, et susceptible, par imprégnation des couches supérieures du réfractaire, d'y apporter du carbone proteateur.As has already been mentioned, the invention is not limited to the use of fuel put tobacco with any other hydro-carbonated agent, preferably liquid, and capable, by impregnating the upper layers of the refractory, of bringing it protective carbon.

En outre, la tuyère n'est pas nécessairement placée entre deux plaquettes réfraatsires mis peut fort bien être logée dans un évidement ménagé au sein même d'une plaquette.In addition, the nozzle is not necessarily placed between two refractory plates put may very well be housed in a recess formed within a plate.

Par silleurs, l'invention eat d'application généralisée à tout traitement d'un métal en fusion dsns un récipient métallurgique poorvu d'injecteurs pour l'insufflation d'un agent de trsitssent sous le niveau du bain.By the way, the invention is of general application to any treatment of a molten metal in a poor metallurgical receptacle provided with injectors for blowing a trsitssent agent below the level of the bath.

Elle s'applique notamment aux convsrtisaeurs d'aciérie à soufflage d'oxygène par le fond, éventuellement combiné avec un soufflage par le haut au moyen d'une lance émergée débouchant au-dessus du bain.It applies in particular to steelworks blowers with oxygen blowing from the bottom, optionally combined with blowing from the top by means of an emerged lance emerging above the bath.
