Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum Gießen von flüssigen Metallen, insbesondere von flüssigen Stahlwerkstoffen zur Erzeugung von Brammen- und Dünnbrammenprodukten mit Formatbreiten von 750 bis 3500 mm und Formatdicken von 30 bis 500 mm in einer Stranggießanlage, die zur Verbesserung der Produktqualität mit einer elektromagnetischen Bremseinrichtung ausgerüstet ist, bestehend aus Spulen mit Kernen und Joch, durch deren erzeugte Magnetfeldwirkung die Strömungsverhältnisse innerhalb des Flüssigmetalls in der Kokille beeinflusst werden.The invention relates to a method and apparatus for casting of liquid metals, in particular of liquid steel materials for the production of slab and thin slab products with format widths of 750 to 3500 mm and format thicknesses of 30 to 500 mm in a continuous casting, the product quality with a Electromagnetic braking device is equipped, consisting of coils with cores and yoke, through the generated magnetic field effect, the flow conditions within the liquid metal are influenced in the mold.
Zur Verbesserung der Produktqualität durch eine positive Beeinflussung der Strömungsverhältnisse innerhalb der Stranggießkokille ist es bekannt, diese mit einer elektromagnetischen Bremse auszurüsten. Diese besteht aus Spulen mit Kernen und Joch, mit denen Magnetfelder erzeugt werden, die auf die bestehenden Strömungsverhältnisse des Stahlbades innerhalb der Kokille einwirken. Zur möglichst vollen Entfaltung der Wirksamkeit der Magnetfelder ist es dabei erforderlich, die Magnetfelder möglichst nahe an die Stranggießkokille heranzuführen. Üblicherweise werden deshalb entweder die elektromagnetischen Bremssysteme erst nach dem Einsetzen der Kokille in die Gießmaschine hydraulisch oder elektromechanisch an die Kokille herangefahren oder sie sind in verschiedenen Anordnungen fest an der Kokille der Stranggießanlage installiert. Im Wesentlichem werden hierbei die Spule oder die Spulenkombinationen jeweils mit Kern von außen an die Kokille bzw. an den wasserdurchströmten Wasserkasten oder an der Kupferplattenrückseite positioniert, oder die Spule ist ortsfest am Stahlbau fixiert und ein beweglicher Kern wird durch sie hindurch in die Kokille bewegt.To improve the product quality by positively influencing the flow conditions within the continuous casting mold, it is known to equip these with an electromagnetic brake. This consists of coils with cores and yokes, with which magnetic fields are generated, which act on the existing flow conditions of the steel bath within the mold. For the fullest possible unfolding of the effectiveness of the magnetic fields, it is necessary to bring the magnetic fields as close as possible to the continuous casting mold. Usually, therefore, either the electromagnetic brake systems moved up after the onset of the mold in the casting machine hydraulically or electromechanically to the mold or they are installed in different arrangements firmly on the mold of the continuous casting. Essentially, in this case, the coil or coil combinations are each positioned with core from the outside of the mold or on the water-flowed water box or copper plate back, or the coil is stationary fixed to the steel structure and a movable core is moved through them into the mold.

Ausgehend von diesem geschilderten Stand der Technik besteht die Aufgabe der Erfindung darin, für die Pole der elektromagnetischen Bremssysteme von Stranggießkokillen eine solche Anordnung und Ausrichtung anzugeben, durch die eine Beeinflussung der Flüssigkeitsströmung des Flüssigstahls aus dem Tauchrohr der Kokille in direkter Weise durchgeführt werden kann.Based on this described prior art, the object of the invention is to provide for the poles of the electromagnetic brake systems of continuous casting molds such an arrangement and orientation, by influencing the liquid flow of the liquid steel from the dip tube of the mold can be performed in a direct manner.
Die gestellte Aufgabe wird mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 dadurch gelöst, dass zur direkten bzw. unmittelbaren elektromagnetischen Beeinflussung der aus dem Kokillentauchrohr austretenden Flüssigkeitsstrahlen je Kokillenbreitseite mindestens zwei symmetrisch zur senkrechten Bezugslinie des Kokillentauchrohrs angeordnete Pole mit ihren Hauptachsen des Austrittsquerschnitts in einem bestimmten Winkel α1 bzw. α2 entsprechend ausgerichtet werden.The stated object is achieved with the characterizing features of
Durch die Ausrichtung der Pole der elektromagnetischen Bremseinrichtung in die Hauptstromrichtung der Tauchrohrströmung beeinflusst die elektromagnetische Bremseinrichtung als lokal wirkendes Feld die aus dem Kokillentauchrohr austretenden Flüssigkeitsstrahlen direkt bzw. unmittelbar bezüglich ihrer Richtung, ihrem Geschwindigkeitsprofil und ihrer Turbulenzstruktur. Durch die in dieser Weise modifizierten Flüssigkeitsstrahlen werden mit Vorteil die Entstehung von schädlichen Geschwindigkeitsschwankungen im Badspiegel zumindest begrenzt und sind dadurch kontrollierbar. Die hierdurch erzielbaren Ergebnisse sind u. a. geringe Turbulenzen im Badspiegel, weniger unerwünschte Einschlüsse von beispielsweise Gießpulver oder Schlacke und eine homogene Temperaturverteilung und damit insgesamt eine verbesserte Qualität der Gießprodukte und eine Steigerung der Gießgeschwindigkeit.By aligning the poles of the electromagnetic braking device in the main flow direction of the immersed tube flow, the electromagnetic braking device as a locally acting field influences the liquid jets emerging from the Kokillentauchrohr directly or directly with respect to their direction, their velocity profile and turbulence structure. By virtue of the liquid jets modified in this way, the formation of harmful fluctuations in the speed of the bath level is advantageously at least limited and thus controllable. The achievable results include low turbulence in the bath level, less undesirable inclusions of, for example, casting powder or slag and a homogeneous temperature distribution and thus an overall improved quality of the castings and an increase in the casting speed.
Durch die konzentrierte Wirkung der erfindungsgemäßen Polanordnung und Polausbildung der elektromagnetischen Bremseinrichtung auf die Tauchrohrströmung ist der erforderliche Leistungsbedarf der Bremseinrichtung sehr gering und beträgt nur ca. ¼ bis ½ der sonst aufzubringenden elektrischen Leistung, wobei keine formatbreitenabhängige Anpassung der Bremseinrichtung, sondern nur eine Einstellung der Feldstärke in Abhängigkeit zur Durchsatzmenge vorzusehen ist.Due to the concentrated effect of the pole arrangement according to the invention and Polausbildung the electromagnetic braking device on the dip tube flow of the required power requirement of the braking device is very low and is only about ¼ to ½ of the otherwise applied electrical power, with no format width-dependent adjustment of the braking device, but only a setting of the field strength is to be provided depending on the flow rate.
Die Bremseinrichtung wird dabei im Wesentlichen mit einem permanenten Feld und einstellbarer Feldstärke mittels Gleichstrom betrieben; aber auch ein Betrieb mit wechselnder Feldstärke und möglicher Richtungsumkehr mittels Wechselstrom kann alternativ durchgeführt werden.The braking device is operated essentially with a permanent field and adjustable field strength by means of direct current; but also an operation with changing field strength and possible direction reversal by means of alternating current can alternatively be carried out.
Die Pole der erfindungsgemäßen elektromagnetischen Bremseinrichtung weisen einen beliebigen Austrittsquerschnitt unter Ausprägung einer Hauptachse auf, wobei dieser Austrittsquerschnitt beispielsweise als Dreieck, als Rechteck, als beliebiges Vieleck oder mit einer bogenförmigen Kontur ausgebildet sein kann.The poles of the electromagnetic brake device according to the invention have an arbitrary outlet cross-section with the expression of a major axis, wherein this outlet cross-section may be formed for example as a triangle, a rectangle, any polygon or with an arcuate contour.
Gemäß der Erfindung wird die Ausrichtung der Hauptachsen so definiert durchgeführt, dass sich die Hauptachsen der Pole mit der senkrechten Bezugslinie des Kokillentauchrohrs oberhalb der Pole in einem Winkel α1 zwischen 1° bis 89° oder alternativ unterhalb der Pole in einem Winkel α2 zwischen 1° bis 89° schneiden.According to the invention, the orientation of the major axes is defined so that the major axes of the poles with the vertical reference line of the chill tube above the poles are at an angle α 1 between 1 ° to 89 ° or alternatively below the poles at an angle α 2 between 1 ° to 89 °.
Die Einstellungen der Winkel α1 bzw. α2 werden vor dem Betrieb der Stranggießanlage durch Drehung der Pole manuell eingestellt oder sie werden nach einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Erfindung während des Betriebs der Stranggießanlage variabel durch motorische Drehung der Pole eingestellt und dann bei Bedarf geändert, wobei die motorische Einstellung der Winkel beispielsweise mittels Motor, Hydraulikdrehantrieb, Hydraulik- oder Pneumatikzylinder erfolgt. Die möglichen Drehpunkte der Pole liegen vorzugsweise auf ihrer Hauptachse, sie können aber auch je nach ihrer geometrischen Ausbildung alternativ außerhalb der Pole angeordnet sein.The settings of the angle α 1 or α 2 are adjusted manually by rotating the poles prior to operation of the continuous casting or they are adjusted according to a further embodiment of the invention during operation of the continuous casting variable by motor rotation of the poles and then changed if necessary, the motor setting the angle, for example by means of motor, hydraulic rotary drive, hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder takes place. The possible pivot points of the poles are preferably on their main axis, but they can also be arranged depending on their geometric configuration alternatively outside the poles.
In einer möglichen Ausführung der Erfindung ist die elektromagnetische Bremseinrichtung mit Spulen, Kernen und Joch direkt auf der Kokille angeordnet, so dass sie während des Betriebs der Stranggießanlage gemeinsam mit der Kokille oszilliert.In one possible embodiment of the invention, the electromagnetic braking device with coils, cores and yoke is arranged directly on the mold, so that it oscillates together with the mold during operation of the continuous casting machine.
In einer weiteren möglichen Ausführung der Erfindung ist die elektromagnetische Bremseinrichtung getrennt von der Kokille ortsfest angeordnet, so dass sie nun die Oszillation der Kokille nicht mit ausführt.In a further possible embodiment of the invention, the electromagnetic braking device is arranged so as to be stationary apart from the mold, so that it now does not participate in the oscillation of the mold.
Schließlich ist auch eine Auftrennung der elektromagnetischen Bremseinrichtung möglich, wobei beispielsweise die Polenden auf der Kokille und die Spulen, der Teilkern sowie das Joch auf der ortsfesten Maschinenkonstruktion angeordnet sind.Finally, a separation of the electromagnetic braking device is possible, for example, the pole ends on the mold and the coils, the sub-core and the yoke are arranged on the fixed machine construction.
