Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electromagnetic coil system for in-mold molten steel that is capable of serving both as an electromagnetic stirrer and as an electromagnetic brake, for use in continuous casting of steel while controlling the flow of in-mold molten steel.
  • Electromagnetic stirring is known to have the effect of improving product quality, and is primarily used in the casting of high-grade materials.
  • electromagnetic braking is used to prevent a reduction in product quality resulting from re-melting of a solidified shell when the outlet flow of molten steel collides against a solidified shell on the narrow sides of the mold by applying a braking force to the molten steel outlet flow.
  • Electromagnetic braking is also used to increase the casting velocity by controlling the flow velocity of the molten steel flow below the meniscus.
  • electromagnetic brakes and electromagnetic stirrers are both provided with electromagnetic coils with windings around their magnetic cores disposed on the back side of the mold.
  • a core often employs iron, which is a ferromagnetic material, and is referred to as an iron core.
  • An electromagnetic steel plate is employed as a core in electromagnetic stirring, which uses alternating current, in order to reduce core loss due to electromagnetic induction.
  • a soft iron core is often used in an electromagnetic brake.
  • Patent Reference 1 Japanese Patent Application Kokai Publication No. 2007-007719
  • the geometry of the multi-function coil of the present invention is basically identical to that disclosed in Patent Reference 1.
  • the multi-function coil also employs an electromagnetic coil structure disclosed in Patent Reference 2.
  • Patent Reference 2 Japanese Patent Application Kokai Publication No. S60-044157
  • FIG. 10 shows a multi-function coil 1 as disclosed in Patent Reference 2 in which two coils 1 are arranged in a continuous manner on a wide side 2a of a mold 2.
  • This multi-function coil 1 employs a winding 1b (inner winding) around each two teeth 1aa, and a winding 1c (outer winding) around the outer side of the two teeth 1aa to form a single unit. Since the shape of the two teeth 1aa and the yoke 1ab forming a core 1a of this electromagnetic coil resembles the Greek letter ⁇ (pi), this multi-function coil 1 is called a pi-coil.
  • Reference Numeral 2b is a narrow side of the mold 2
  • Reference Numeral 3 is a back-up plate
  • Reference Numeral 4 is an immersion nozzle.
  • electromagnetic stirring capacity and electromagnetic braking capacity depend on the product of the current applied to the excitation coils and the number of coil turns. It is thus necessary to increase either the number of coil turns or the current, in order to enhance the performance of an electromagnetic coil system.
  • increasing the current requires an increase in the cross-sectional surface area of the windings, which results in a decrease in the number of coil turns. Therefore, increasing the number of coil turns is the primary condition for enhancing the performance of an electromagnetic coil system. The same is true for a multi-function coil.
  • the problem to be solved by the present invention is that in the multi-function coil previously disclosed by the applicant, since provided in a limited space between the two teeth a number of coil turns of the inner excitation coils was limited and, thus the electromagnetic stirring capacity and the electromagnetic braking capacity were also sometimes limited.
  • the present invention is directed to a multi-function coil which is an electromagnetic coil system for in-mold molten steel serving both as an electromagnetic stirrer and as an electromagnetic brake for use in continuous casting of steel by selectively applying electromagnetic stirring and electromagnetic braking on molten steel in a mold by applying a direct current or at least a 3-phase alternating current to an electromagnetic coil disposed around a wide side of a mold, the electromagnetic coil system comprising:
  • an electromagnetic coil system configured to serve as both an electromagnetic stirrer and as an electromagnetic brake
  • sufficient electromagnetic stirring performance and electromagnetic braking performance can be obtained, of course, if the required number of coil turns are provided around the inner excitation coil, and even if there is sufficient space, and the required windings cannot be accommodated.
  • the object of the present invention is to ensure both electromagnetic stirring performance and electromagnetic braking performance by optimizing the relationship between the number of coil turns of the outer winding and the inner winding.
  • excitation coils there are two types of excitation coils, namely, inner and outer excitation coils, unlike prior art electromagnetic coil systems used in electromagnetic stirrers and electromagnetic brakes. Also, while the number of coil turns is limited by the space between the teeth in the case of the inner excitation coil, there is spatial leeway for increasing the number of coil turns in the case of the outer excitation coil.
  • the number of possible coil turns can differ between the inner excitation coil and the outer excitation coil, but in the prior art, the relationship between the number of coil turns of the inner excitation coil and the outer excitation coil was not investigated.
  • the present inventors carefully studied the effect on multi-function coil performance when the number of coil turns of the outer excitation coil was varied with respect to the number of coil turns of the inner excitation coil which is limited by the interval between the teeth.
  • Performance of the multi-function coil includes the electromagnetic stirring capacity, which can be evaluated in terms of the stirring force resulting from the electromagnetic force generated in the molten steel. It also includes electromagnetic braking performance, which can be evaluated in terms of the magnitude of the electromagnetic flux applied to the molten steel.
  • the present inventors employed a computation model of electromagnetic field analysis to study changes in stirring force and electromagnetic flux density when the number of coil turns of the outer excitation coil was varied.
  • FIG. 1 shows a computation model of electromagnetic field analysis.
  • FIG. 1 (a) is a perspective view of the entire model.
  • FIG. 1 (b) is a horizontal sectional view.
  • FIG. 1 (c) is a vertical sectional view.
  • the numerals in the figure represent the dimensions (mm) of the parts of the model.
  • a non-magnetic stainless steel back-up plate 3 is disposed on the outer side of a copper mold 2, and an upper end of a core 1a is at the same height as the meniscus M.
  • the number of coil turns of the excitation core is between 40-60 for the inner winding and 40-120 for the outer winding.
  • alternating current is applied with a frequency of 4.0 Hz at 750 A.
  • direct current of 900 A is applied.
  • the coil current phases during electromagnetic stirring exhibit the same combinations of current phases as those disclosed in Japanese Patent Application No. 2007-150627 .
  • excitation coils (a) - (c), excitation coils (d) - (f), excitation coils (g) - (i), and excitation coils (j) - (l) each form one electromagnetic coil.
  • Excitation coils (a), (d), (g), and (j) are excitation coils which have the outer winding 1c to unify the two respective teeth 1aa.
  • Electromagnetic coils having the excitation coils (a) - (c) and the excitation coils (d) - (f) is disposed sequentially on one wide side 2a of the mold 2. Electromagnetic coils having the excitation coils (g) - (i) and the excitation coils (j) - (l) arranged on the other wide side 2a of the mold 2, are disposed facing the excitation coils (a) - (c) and the excitation coils (d) - (f).
  • phases U, V, and W having a phase difference of 120° in a 3-phase alternating current are applied to the excitation coils (a) - (l) at the inner winding 1b for the teeth 1aa of the electromagnetic coils in the sequence of the excitation coils, as shown in FIG. 2 .
  • -W, +V, +U, +W, -V, -U, -W, +U, +V, +W, -U, and -V are applied sequentially to the excitation coils (a) - (l).
  • FIG. 2 (b) -W, +V, +U, -V, +U, +W, +V, -W, -U, +W, -U, and -V are applied.
  • FIG. 3 is a graph showing the relationship between the number of coil turns of the outer excitation coil and the magnetic flux density at the center of mold thickness.
  • FIG. 3 indicates that the magnetic flux density increases proportionately with the number of coil turns of the outer excitation coil.
  • FIG. 4 is a drawing showing magnetic flux density distribution at the center of mold thickness:
  • FIG. 4 (a) illustrates a case where the number of coil turns of the inner and outer excitation coils is equal, with 60 coil turns each.
  • FIG. 4 (b) illustrates a case where the number of coil turns of the outer excitation coil is 100 coil turns, while that of the inner excitation coil is 60.
  • FIG. 4 shows contour lines with 10 equal intervals, starting with the maximum value for magnetic flux density.
  • FIG. 4 confirms that no great change in the magnetic flux density distribution occurs, even if the number of coil turns of the outer excitation coil is increased so as to exceed the number of coil turns of the inner excitation coil.
  • the present inventors studied the electromagnetic stirring capacity when the number of coil turns of the outer excitation coil was increased so as to exceed the number of coil turns of the inner excitation coil.

  • the distribution of stirring force shown in FIG. 6 is at a position 5 mm from the wide side of the mold at the position of the meniscus of the molten steel.
  • the distribution of the stirring force is in the direction of the wide side at the position A-A' in FIG. 7 .
  • FIG. 6 indicates that if the number of coil turns of the outer excitation coil is reduced to 40 (broken line) versus 60 coil turns for the inner excitation coil, there is reduced stirring force in all regions on the wide side of the mold. On the other hand, if the number of coil turns of the outer excitation coil is increased to 120 (dotted line), the stirring force increases in the opposite direction at the left end of the wide side of the mold, and the stirring force is less than 0 even at the center of the mold, even though the maximum stirring force increases.
  • FIG. 8 is a graph showing the distribution of flow velocity of molten steel.
  • the solid line shows the case where the inner excitation coil has the ideal number of coil turns, namely 60 coil turns, and the and the outer excitation coil has 60 coil turns.
  • the broken line represents a case where there are 40 coil turns for the inner excitation coil, which is fewer than the ideal number of coil turns, and 100 coil turns for the outer excitation coil (the ratio of outer coil turn to inner coil turn is 2.5).
  • the flow velocity of molten steel shown in FIG. 8 represents measurements taken at a position 5 - mm from the wide side of the mold at position of the meniscus. Measurements are taken in the direction of the wide side at the position A-A' in FIG. 7 .
  • the flow velocity drops to 5 cm/sec at the center of the mold, but the flow velocity distribution is equivalent to that when the inner and outer excitation coils have an equal number of coil turns.
  • FIG. 9 is a graph showing the flow velocity distribution of molten steel.
  • the solid line is for 40 coil turns, which is fewer than the ideal number of coil turns for the inner excitation coil, and illustrates the case where the number of coil turns for the outer excitation coil is 120 (the ratio of outer coil turn to inner coil turn is 3).
  • the broken line represents the case where the inner and outer coil turns is equal, namely 40 coil turns.
  • FIG. 9 indicates that the flow velocity drops to below 0 at the center of the mold, when the number of coil turns for the inner excitation coil is lower than the ideal number, and the number of coil turns for the outer excitation coil is 3 times that of the inner excitation coil, even though the maximum flow velocity increases.
  • FIG. 9 also indicates that if the number of coil turns for the inner excitation coil is lower than the ideal number of coil turns, there is a large region in which the stirring force is insufficient and the flow velocity is on the order of 0, even if the number of coil turns of the inner and outer excitation coils is equal, and this is unsuitable for electromagnetic stirring.
  • the optimal number of coil turns for the excitation coils in a multi-function coil is an equal number of coil turns for the inner and outer excitation coils, in cases where it is possible to ensure a sufficient number of coil turns for the inner excitation coil.
