Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing strips and composite bodies made of metal according to the preamble of claim 1 and an apparatus for performing the method.
  • the basis of all rapid solidification processes is the rapid removal of heat. This process is determined on the one hand by the thermal conductivity of the metal, on the other hand by the mechanism of heat transfer at the phase boundary to the heat-extracting medium.
  • the heat transfer characterized by the heat transfer coefficient
  • the heat transport in the metal which is characterized by the thermal conductivity coefficient
  • Examples of this are the gossip mold, where a drop of metal is suddenly formed into a film between two metal plates, the melt-spinning process, where a metal jet is usually applied to the outer surface of a rapidly rotating roller, which is continuously influenced by the acceleration and by the Heat removal from the roller used as a quenching body forms a thin metal film and certain powder atomization processes, where a metal jet is broken up into small drops under the influence of an atomization medium, which can be a gas or a liquid, which solidify in flight and are then fed to powder metallurgical compaction processes can be.
  • an atomization medium which can be a gas or a liquid, which solidify in flight and are then fed to powder metallurgical compaction processes can be.
  • the theoretical foundations of fast solidification processes are e.g. B. in a publication by R.
  • the process of spray compacting offers the possibility of producing larger cast structures, whereby semi-finished products can be produced in near-net-shape dimensions at higher cooling speeds. This is usually around 50 - 150 K above the liquidus temperature superheated melt usually atomized with the help of argon or nitrogen, similar to the case with powder production. During the flight, a substantial part of the overheating heat from the drops is taken up by the atomizing gas, so that the drops - depending on their size - hit the substrate in a more or less liquid state and weld there with the previously deposited material.
  • the method is fundamentally suitable for the production of flat products, but in particular for the production of rotationally symmetrical semi-finished products such as round bars and tubes, in which case the substrate performs a rotational movement with a lateral offset during the spraying process. Since the metal drops only hit with very little overheating, the substrate, ie the material previously deposited, must be at a sufficiently high temperature so that it is still homogeneously welded. However, if the temperature is too high, a liquid layer builds up on the substrate surface, which on the one hand slowly solidifies in a conventional manner and on the other hand is thrown off the substrate under the influence of centrifugal force.
  • spray compacting has the advantage over classic powder metallurgy that all intermediate stages between powder atomization and powder compaction are eliminated - and thus possibilities for contaminating the Powder surface can be reduced - however, as with normal powder metallurgy, an enormous surface is still formed and, in the case of highly reactive materials or even with only slight contamination of the gas atmosphere in the spray chamber, this can lead to material damage despite the short reaction times.
  • a major disadvantage of spray compacting is the fact that cooling during flight takes place down to the range of the liquidus temperature, e.g. B. takes place relatively quickly with a few thousand Kelvin per second, but then on the substrate, where the critical area between liquidus and solidus temperature is passed, the cooling rate is only in the order of a few Kelvin per second.
  • this enables the phenomena known from classic solidification, such as segregation and the formation of cavities and precipitates, but also a coarsening of the original cast morphology.
  • Another disadvantage of the method is the fact that, as with all conventional solidification processes, the heat is removed via the layers which have already solidified beforehand, so that the heat transport is reduced with increasing thickness of the substrate, which leads to non-stationary solidification conditions.
  • JP-A-61-119 355. A generic method is known from JP-A-61-119 355. In this process, several layers of molten metal are applied in succession to the top of a band passed over two rollers. Since very high speeds cannot be achieved with the belt and the melt is pressed onto it only by gravity, the applied layer is inevitably relatively thick, so that the desired very rapid cooling of the melt cannot be achieved in this way. The process is also only suitable for the production of a band-shaped laminate.
  • the object of the invention is to enable the production of metal strips with extremely rapid cooling, so that the metal strip produced has a structure which results from a rapid fixation of a metastable state.
  • a device suitable for carrying out the method is to be specified.
  • the invention permits a significantly higher speed of the substrate, since the placement and distribution of the melt is ensured by the centrifugal force that presses it against the inner surface. The same force also ensures that the melt is compressed and spreads very quickly in a relatively thin layer over a larger area and is pressed against the cold substrate - that is, the layer that was created immediately before and adjoins the outside - which creates the best conditions for rapid cooling.
  • This is further supported by the fact that, as mentioned, heat flows from the applied melt into the substrate, which has been greatly cooled by the application of coolant, and is also removed from the surface by the coolant, preferably applied immediately after solidification. This heat removal from a thin layer over both interfaces leads to extremely high cooling rates.
  • the high speeds of the substrate mentioned also have the advantage of high output in front of an inevitably much slower moving belt.
  • JP-A-57-156 863 Another method is known from JP-A-57-156 863, in which the solidifying melt is applied to the outside of a wheel-shaped casting mold, which heats it from this side, while cooling it only by spraying water on the outside becomes.
  • the substrate surface is always part of the Circumferential surface of the mold is formed. There are no successive layers and interaction between them.
  • the purpose of the method is to produce a monocrystalline structure by setting an approximately constant temperature gradient.
  • JP-A-57-070 062 a method is known in which melt is directed against a rotating inner surface, but coolant is not applied to the resulting metal strip or better metal wire, but is injected into the groove before the melt is applied. So there is only one-sided cooling. The wire does not go through a complete revolution either, but is deflected and drawn off by compressed air in the axial direction in front of the point at which coolant is injected, a process which may involve some difficulties and should preclude the production of wider strips. An interaction between successive sections of the tape thus produced is obviously impossible.
  • an overheated metal melt in the form of a more or less closed jet is preferably applied to the inner surface of a rotating and essentially rotationally symmetrical mold cavity, similar to centrifugal casting.
  • the heat removal in the present process takes place mainly by heat transfer into a liquid cooling medium which at one point is offset approximately at the same rotation level, but by a certain angle of rotation with respect to the location of the metal application is sprayed onto the metal film just deposited and forms a coolant film there.
  • Both films are created on the one hand under the effect of the mechanical accelerations at the locations where they are applied, the heat transfer conditions in the metal layer formed in the course of the last revolution and between the films, and in particular as a function of the temperatures of the surfaces involved in mass transfer and the physical properties of those involved Phases such as thermal conductivity, density, solidification range, supercooling conditions etc.
  • a high cooling effect can generally be achieved at temperatures below the boiling point of the coolant, since the heat transfer directly into the liquid phase with its relatively high density and Heat capacity takes place. If the temperature is raised to a range above the boiling point, a second range is reached, where the Leydenfrost phenomenon occurs: at the phase boundary, partial evaporation of the coolant leads to the formation of a vapor film, which directly contacts the metal phase with the prevents liquid coolant. The heat transfer can therefore decrease by powers of ten.
  • a third area which is decisive in the sense of the present invention, is reached when the liquid cooling phase has a large temperature gradient on the one hand and a high relative speed compared to the hot surface to be cooled.
  • the method according to the invention has two main differences from the classic melt spinning processes: on the one hand, part of the heat of the freshly applied metal film is transferred to an underlying solid metal layer, but this metal is the cast body formed in the course of the last revolution, on the one hand others, a substantial part of the heat is given off directly to the liquid cooling medium.
  • An additional, but not essential, process feature is the fact that both films, ie metal and coolant, are pressed under the effect of centrifugal acceleration on the respective underlying layer, which improves the Leads heat transfer.
  • the method according to the invention also clearly distinguishes itself from conventional centrifugal casting by the fact that the solidification of the melt applied in the course of one revolution takes place essentially during this revolution.
  • the amount of metal supplied is chosen to be lower in relation to the rotational speed, for example as is the case with melt spinning, then at peripheral speeds z. B. in the range of 50 - 100 m / sec tapes with a thickness of the order of 0.05 mm. If the coolant is applied shortly after the metal film has been produced and the cooling effect is maintained for a longer period during the further rotation, then a substantial part of the heat of the freshly applied metal layer reaches the liquid cooling medium, which absorbs this heat with evaporation.
  • the inventive method not a band, but a thicker, substantially rotationally symmetrical body z. B. be made in the form of a ring, then basically the procedure described above can be used, but in A smaller amount of the coolant is used in relation to the amount of metal, the amount of metal and the rotational movement preferably being matched to one another in such a way that the applied metal film generally has a thickness above 0.2 mm. It is also advantageous with this method of operation if the time at which the coolant is applied is delayed compared to the example above.
  • the cooling effect starts later, so that the freshly applied film has more time to weld with the last layer applied, on the other hand, the reduced amount of coolant in relation to the amount of metal ensures that the cooling effect suddenly stops after the coolant has completely evaporated, so that a higher residual heat remains in the welded film, which favors a successful welding in the next film application.
  • a cylindrical molded body 1 rotates in the direction of an arrow 2 about an axis of rotation, the rotary movement taking place within rollers 4 mounted on axes 3, two of which are shown as representatives. At least one of these roles must be designed as a drive role.
  • the axis of rotation is arranged horizontally, however, a vertical arrangement is also easily possible in the sense of the invention, since the acceleration due to gravity has only a slight influence compared to the acceleration due to rotation.
  • a jet 6 of overheated melt strikes the inner surface of the outermost metal layer 7 formed in the course of the last revolution, a liquid metal film 8 being formed.
  • the jet 6 originates from the melt 10 located in a container 9, wherein the container 9 can either be a melting or holding furnace or just an unheated intermediate container for receiving the overheated melt.
  • An outlet opening for the melt in the form of a pouring nozzle 11 can be designed analogously to the conditions during melt spinning, both in terms of its shape and in terms of its arrangement relative to the casting point 5, in such a way that optimal hydrodynamic conditions arise for the film formation.
  • the pouring nozzle 11 can be a circular or a different from the circular shape, for. B. have a rectangular cross-section.
  • a certain pressure can be applied to the melt 10 in the container 9, so that it emerges from the pouring nozzle 11 at a desired speed or quantity per unit of time, it being possible at the same time for the melt to precede Contact with the outside atmosphere is protected.
  • the jet 6, as shown, can be directed towards the casting point 5 essentially as in melt spinning or, similarly to spray compacting, can be dissolved in drops by a stream of a fluid, preferably gaseous medium.
  • a fluid preferably gaseous medium.
  • the splitting of the jet 6 is not used for rapid cooling below the solidification temperature, the drops should remain liquid.
  • Coolant e.g. B. liquid nitrogen
  • Coolant is applied from cooling nozzles 12a, b at points 13a, b to the metal film 8, each forming a coolant film 14 thereon, which is completely evaporated at a point 15.
  • a single cooling nozzle is sufficient.
  • the coolant can also be applied from a plurality of nozzles arranged next to one another if a wider metal film 8 is desired.
  • the device parts required for this would have to be congruent in FIG. 1 lined up behind the parts shown. They would perform analog functions like this.
  • the metal film 8 is completely solidified at a point 16 in the present example. In most cases, the point 16 is in the direction of rotation in front of the cooling point 13, so that the liquid coolant only comes into contact with the completely solidified metal film 8.
  • the cylindrical molded body 1 has a groove-like depression on its inner wall, which is formed by a side wall 17a firmly connected to the inner wall and a removable side wall 17b is limited laterally.
  • the melt 10 is applied from the pouring nozzle 11 in the form of a jet 6 at the pouring point 5 to form the metal film 8 on the innermost metal layer 7 of the metal layers already formed in the course of the previous revolutions.
  • 3a-c show three typical phases in a first variant of the method according to the invention, the production of a rapidly solidifying strip in a diagram which shows the radial temperature profile over several layers.
  • FIG 3a shows the moment at which a new metal film 8 with a melt of superheating temperature T 1 has just been applied, which is represented by the curve piece 18.
  • the temperature drop 19 represents the heat transfer resistance to the innermost metal layer 7, which has formed and solidified in the course of the last revolution, the temperature of which is represented by the curve piece 20.
  • the next lower layer - curve piece 21 - also shows a sharp drop in temperature to curve piece 20. In all cases, this sharp drop in temperature is caused by the existence of an air gap, ie by the fact that - in the sense of the strip production - no welding has occurred.
  • FIG. 3c shows a phase immediately before the end of a revolution, shortly before the next superheated metal film 8 is applied, in accordance with FIG. 3a.
  • the temperature of the metal film 8 may have dropped so far in this phase that the heat flow is reversed, i. H.
  • the previously formed metal layers give off heat to the last-formed metal film 8.
  • Fig. 3c and Fig. 3a i.e. H. At least so much time must elapse from the beginning of the next cycle that the coolant film 14 has completely evaporated. Since the process according to the invention, on the one hand, similar to melt spinning processes, gives off the heat of the overheated melt to a metal substrate, but additionally transfers a substantial part of the heat into the liquid cryogenic coolant, there are potentially higher cooling rates.
  • 4a-c show three phases in a second variant of the method according to the invention, the production of a composite body continuously welded from strips, in the form of a cast layered composite material.
  • FIG. 5 shows an embodiment of a device according to the invention, which has devices for applying two melts 10a and 10b in series in the course of one revolution as metal films 8a and 8b, which are then explained in connection with FIGS. 4a-c, which are welded together by corresponding means Metering of the coolant at the cooling point 13 is effected. A further coolant film with a more intensive cooling effect is applied behind the casting point 5b. Because of this intensive cooling effect, only the two metal layers 7a and 7b are welded, but not to the metal layer 7c underneath. If the composition of the two metal layers 7a and 7b is identical, a thicker strip is produced in this way at a high cooling rate. If the composition of these layers is different, a bimetallic strip is obtained. Of course, more than two liquid metal films are applied in succession, so that instead of a bimetal strips of more complex structure are created.
  • the distance 22 between the casting point 5 and the outlet opening of the casting nozzle 11 is to be kept as constant as possible. Since, in contrast to the melt spinning process, the innermost metal layer 7 produced in the course of the last revolution is used as the substrate, the casting point 5 is continuously shifted with respect to the original surface of the molded body 1. In the present example, the constant distance 22 is maintained by a Spacer roller 23 rolls on the innermost metal layer 7 formed last, which shifts the container 9 with the metal melt 10 via a holding device 24, so that the pouring nozzle 11 follows the movement of the winding structure.
  • Deviating from this mechanical regulation it is of course also conceivable to determine the distance of the pouring nozzle 11 from the pouring point 5 via an electronic measuring probe, a control circuit ensuring that the position of the pouring nozzle 11 is tracked, for example, via an electromechanical actuator.
  • the casting point 5 is designed as a metal bath 25, the volume of this metal bath on the one hand through the side walls 17a, 17b of the rotating cylindrical shaped body 1 (FIG.

  • the measures proposed in accordance with FIG. 6 can be used, ie the holding device 26 of the baffle wall 27 can be held at a constant distance from the respective inner surface either by a spacer roller 23 (FIG. 6) or by electronic means .
  • FIG. 8 shows a further embodiment of a device according to the invention with a similar objective as is the case with that according to FIG. 7.
  • the supply of the jet 6 of the molten metal also takes place in a bath 25, the lateral limitation in the direction of rotation, however, in this case being formed by an accumulation roller 28 which, in the same way as the accumulation wall 27 described in FIG. 7, has a casting gap with the forms innermost metal layer 7 formed during the last revolution.
  • the cooling liquid is supplied via a cooling nozzle 12, the distribution of the cooling liquid, similar to the case for the metal melt in the present example, is accomplished by a roller 29.
  • An arrangement (not shown in FIG. 7) is also conceivable, in which the cooling liquid is fed in behind the roller 29 in the direction of rotation. In such a case, the roller 29 serves on the one hand to roll the partially or fully solidified metal film 8 into the plane and also prevents liquid or gaseous coolant from flowing back into the area of the still liquid metal film 8.

Abstract

Un filet (6) de métal en fusion surchauffé sortant d'un réservoir (9) est projeté, sous forme de jet fermé grâce à une buse de coulée (11) ou dissocié en gouttelettes par l'action d'un fluide gazeux, au niveau d'un point de coulée (5) sur la surface intérieure d'un ruban enroulé ou d'un élément composé tournant dans une forme (1) en même temps que celle-ci, et il se produit ainsi un film métallique (8) initialement liquide sur lequel est appliqué, au niveau d'un point de refroidissement (13) décalé par rapport au point de coulée (5) dans le sens de la rotation, à partir d'une buse de refroidissement (12), un fluide frigorigène, de préférence un gaz liquéfié à basse température tel que l'argon ou l'azote, qui évacue, en majorité par son évaporation, une grande partie de la chaleur de surchauffage et de fusion du film métallique (8). En fonction de la chaleur résiduelle qu'elle conserve après son refroidissement, le film métallique (8) reste, soit isolée de la couche métallique intérieure (7) déposée précédemment, de sorte qu'il se forme un ruban enroulé, soit fondue avec cette couche, de sorte qu'il se forme un élément composé présentant essentiellement une symétrie de rotation.

Claims (17)

  1. Procédé pour la fabrication d'un ruban ou d'une pièce composite en métal, dans lequel au moins un jet (6) de masse métallique fondue surchauffée est acheminé contre une surface transversale par rapport au sens du jet et sur laquelle est ainsi produit un film métallique (8; 8a; 8b) initialement liquide et un agent réfrigérant liquide est ensuite appliqué sur le film métallique (8; 8a; 8b) et celui-ci est refroidi au moins dans la zone de solidification, caractérisé par le fait que la surface est une surface intérieure en rotation ayant pratiquement une symétrie de révolution autour de l'axe de rotation, laquelle est formée à chaque fois au moins en partie par les couches métalliques (7; 7a; 7b) solidifiées produites pendant les rotations précédentes.
  2. Procédé selon la revendication 1, caractérisé par le fait que le liquide de refroidissement est d'abord appliqué sur le film métallique (8; 8a; 8b) après au moins une présolidification de la surface de celui-ci.
