Definitions

  • the invention relates to inlet systems for continuous aluminum casting plants, consisting of a gutter, one inserted into the gutter Inlet nozzle into which a plug for regulating the Melt feed is used and optionally a control system, with which the immersion depth of the stopper within a predetermined Limits are controllable.
  • the object of the invention is therefore the inlet system in aluminum continuous casting plants optimize so that while maintaining of the essential installations the negative pressure at the nozzle inlet and is minimized at the nozzle outlet and the flow conditions be optimized in the inlet nozzle.
  • a procedure for Operation of the inlet system is intended to create vortex formation in the melt reduce so that both on the melt surface in the There is no channel or on the melt surface in the mold Vortex formation occurs.
  • the nozzle contour according to the invention provides that in the middle of the Inlet nozzle has the narrowest cross section and thus the highest Speed is generated in the middle of the nozzle.
  • the shape of the nozzle becomes a stall, which is the cross-section through which the air flows could reduce avoided.
  • the nozzle is thus flows evenly over the entire cross section, whereby an optimal volume flow can be set.
  • the infeed system results different flow conditions, depending on which Nozzle side of the melt flowing in the gutter first is flowed to. Under certain conditions, this leads with conventional infeed systems to an uneven distribution the liquid flow on the inner wall of the nozzle with which As a result, very high flow velocities at certain nozzle cross sections and in other places a flow shadow arises. These conditions have previously disturbed uniformity the flow and also affected the inlet and Flow conditions at the feed nozzle.
  • the inlet system consists of a channel 1 used inlet nozzle 2, in which a plug 3 for regulation of the melt inlet 4 is used. Arrived through the pouring nozzle the melt into the mold 5, where it is formed into an ingot 6 is held on the sprue 7. By lowering a casting table 8 by means of lowering device 9 is the ingot 6 pulled down out of the mold 5.
  • nozzles 2 and plugs 3 are shown in FIG remove. It can be seen that the cross sections X and Y at the nozzle inlet and nozzle outlet in relation to the other cross sections the inlet nozzle are selected large, so that there are low flow rates occur.
  • FIG. 2 It can also be seen from FIG. 2 how the plug 3 enters the nozzle 2 dips.
  • the one remaining between the nozzle 2 and the plug 3 Space is to be seen as an annular gap C and is designed to that the flow fills the entire cross-section evenly. Seen from the inlet side X, the annular gap tapers C, so that a dynamic pressure builds up in the flowing metal counteracts a reduction in the static pressure in the melt.
  • the pressure ratios are also shown by an enlarged level difference - in the example 26 cm and 34 cm - hardly changed.
  • the closely spaced curves for different level differences show that the flow conditions are very stable and even in the case of high negative pressures, the flow in the nozzle is not tears off. It follows that the available cross section is flowed through relatively evenly and none Speed peaks occur.
  • FIGS. 6a, b and 5a, b Inlet systems shown as examples.
  • the vacuum on Nozzle outlet can no longer be dismantled because of the available Cross section at the nozzle outlet through the stall below the Stopper is reduced very much. This creates high negative pressures at the nozzle outlet, which is no longer due to an enlargement the immersion depth of the nozzle can be compensated (see Figure 5a).
  • FIG. 4b shows a known upward closing inlet system shown.
  • the negative pressure increases with increasing Level difference strongly on (see Figure 5b).
  • the metal column above the nozzle inlet in the channel and the associated static pressure is not sufficient to To compensate for the negative pressure that arises at the nozzle inlet.
  • the known inlet system tends to form turbulence. This is shown in FIG. 7 and is shown in following explained in more detail.
  • the melt 4 arrives in the direction of the arrow through the channel 1 to the inlet nozzle 2. Through the nozzle inlet and emerges negative pressure is the melt surface dented by the air pressure, causing the oxide layer to tear open can and oxide or dirt particles sucked into the melt can be.
  • the non-deformable impurities are in the solidification front installed. Arrive at the later rolling process They surface and cause the rolled strip to tear open or damage to the rollers.
  • FIG 8 is a mechanical control of the mold casting system shown schematically for aluminum ingots.
  • the plug is via a mechanical deflection 15 3 moved up or down by means of a push rod 16.
  • float stands for a piece of refractory material, that floats on the metal surface and a lever Metal level reports. In the present case, it becomes the annular gap between nozzle and stopper enlarged or reduced, each after in which direction the melt level deviates from the target value. The feed rate of the molten metal is thus determined by different plug heights regulated.
  • the metal level in the mold 5 can be for various reasons vary.
  • the melting furnace is inclined not continuously, so that gushing in the channel 1 occurs.
  • the metal level in the gutter is also common regulated with a float, so that normally two control systems are coupled together. This leads to a dynamic Control behavior that is constant during the casting phase Correction of the respective plug height is required.
  • FIG. 9 the processes during Opened the stopper.
  • Figure 9.1 is the stopper 3 shown in the nozzle 2 in the closed position. Through the closing edge 21 of the plug 3, the nozzle opening 22 is closed.
  • the closing edge 21 is around a gap of approximately 2 up to 3 mm from the nozzle inlet opening 22. Thereby melt reaches nozzle 2 and flows at stopper 3 along to the narrowest point approximately in the middle of the nozzle. The Melt appears as a thin jet 23 at the lower end of the nozzle out.
  • the invention provides that the Nozzle is already sealed at the nozzle inlet. This is what the circumferential paragraph 21 on the plug, which in the closed state on Edge 22 of the nozzle inlet rests.
