- Devices and methods are known in which devices are introduced into the roller gap, which are able to determine the spray water distribution in binary at a few discrete points.
- BESTATIGUNGSKOPIE Another device which monitors the function of spray nozzles in a continuous casting plant is shown in patent application EP 0 011 896 A1.
- This device is introduced, similar to the Roll Gap Checker, instead of a strand in the roller gap of the system.
- the device In the device there is a recess in which there is an array of several individual sensors arranged in a row perpendicular to the casting direction.
- a disadvantage of this arrangement is inter alia the arrangement of sensors at a certain distance, so that the spray water cones can be characterized only inaccurately. Furthermore, due to the large recess in which the sensors are located, it is not possible to investigate the generation of surge water.
- the invention initially comprising a device for detecting the pressure distribution of cooling medium in a continuous casting plant or rolling train, the continuous casting plant or rolling train comprising at least one pair of rolls forming a roll nip in the one Strand can be passed through, wherein in the casting direction before and / or behind the at least one pair of rollers spray water nozzles are arranged, which can act on a strand with cooling medium and wherein the device has substantially the dimensions of a strand with respect to the width direction and / or the thickness direction and the device comprises at least one pressure measuring foil arranged on the surface of the device so that the pressure distribution of the cooling medium through the pressure measuring foil can be detected when the device is inserted into the continuous casting plant instead of a strand e or rolling mill is introduced.
- Such a device can easily detect or characterize the spray water areas or the spray cones of individual nozzles with a very high local resolution.
- the pressure of occurring splash water can also be detected, whereby knowledge of the exact distribution of coolant on the strand surface is obtained.
- the at least one pressure measuring film is arranged over the entire width of the device.
- This arrangement of the pressure measuring film, the function of the spray water nozzles can be tested over the entire width of a strand.
- the pressure measuring film is arranged on the top and / or bottom of the device.
- the pressure measuring film has a thickness of less than 0.5 mm.
- a thinly selected measuring film has the advantage that it only minimally increases the thickness of the device and thus has virtually no influence on the thickness of the device.
- the pressure measuring film is arranged in a recess of the device whose depth corresponds to the thickness of the pressure measuring film.
- the pressure measuring foil can then be installed flush with the surface of the device, which results in even more realistic measuring conditions in comparison with an actual strand.
- the pressure measuring film is designed as a flexible grid of pressure-sensitive sensors.
- each sensor is formed by a matrix of rows and columns of semiconductor material whose electrical resistance changes when a force is exerted on them.
- the device comprises a nozzle exchange device for changing nozzles.
- any defective nozzles have been found by the device described above, they can be replaced directly by an exchange device in the device.
- the nozzle exchange device comprises a robot arm, which can remove and / or install nozzles.
- the invention further comprises a method for detecting the pressure distribution of cooling medium in a continuous casting or rolling mill, wherein the continuous casting or rolling mill comprises at least one pair of rollers, which forms a roller gap and between which a strand can be passed therethrough, in the casting before and / or behind the at least one pair of rollers spray water nozzles are arranged, which can act on a strand with cooling medium, wherein a device is introduced instead of a strand in the continuous casting or rolling mill, so that the pressure distribution of the cooling medium can be detected, the device substantially Dimensions of a strand with respect to the width direction and / or the thickness direction and the device comprises at least one pressure measuring film for detecting the pressure distribution.
- the method has substantially the same advantages as the present device for detecting the pressure distribution of cooling medium.
- the device comprises an evaluation device with which the detected pressure distribution of the cooling medium is represented computer-aided.
- the formation of splash water in the casting direction in front of the rollers is detected by the pressure measuring film.
- the device comprises a nozzle exchange device, are replaced by the defective nozzles.
- the heat transfer between strand and water spray and splash water can also be determined by comparison with reference values. This allows the calculation of the temperature distribution of the strand with the current water supply. This calculation is part of the evaluation unit.
- FIG. 1a a perspective view of a roll carpet together with rolls and drawn nozzle sticks and spray cones;
- FIG. 1 b the roller carpet from FIG. 1 a in a different perspective
- Figure 2 A pressure measuring device according to the invention for introduction into a roller gap
- FIG. 3 The device according to the invention from FIG. 2 in the roller gap of a roller carpet according to FIG. 1.
- Figures 1a and 1b show a conventional arrangement of rollers 3 in a roll carpet of a continuous casting plant in two different perspectives.
- the rollers 3 form opposite pairs of rollers.
- spray nozzles are arranged in the casting direction (for example in FIGS. 1a and 1b from top to bottom).
- the nozzle sticks 4 Shown are in Figure 1a and 1b, the nozzle sticks 4, at the ends of the nozzles (not explicitly shown) are.
- These nozzles spray cooling medium or water onto a strand.
- Such a strand moves in the roller gap between the rollers 3 of a respective pair of rollers.
- the spray water forms a spray water cone 5 or a spray water region on a strand running between the rolls.
- FIG. 2 shows a device 1 according to the invention.
- This can instead of a strand in the continuous casting, as it is shown, for example, in the figures 1a and 1b, retracted.
- the device 1 is formed from a body which substantially coincides with a strand with respect to the width dimension and the thickness dimension, that is, for example, has the same cross-section as a strand.
- a pressure measuring film 2 is now attached to the surface of the device 1, preferably on one of the broad sides, of the strand.
- Pressure measuring film 2 can, as can be seen in FIG. 2, be arranged over the entire width of the device.
- Such pressure measuring films 2 are commercial available, such as by the company Tekscan Inc., South Boston, USA.
- Corresponding pressure measuring films have high resolutions of, for example, 248 measuring points per cm 2 . Acquisition rates can be 10,000 Hz or more.
- Thicknesses of such pressure measuring foils 2 can be, for example, only 0.1 mm, so that they almost do not influence a measurement by their intrinsic thickness.
- such films 2 are designed to be a flexible grid of pressure-sensitive sensors, each sensor being formed by a matrix of rows and columns of semiconductor material whose electrical resistance changes when a force is applied thereto.
- the data determined by the pressure measuring film 2 can be transmitted, preferably via a wireless connection, to a preferably external evaluation device which also displays the spray and splash water distribution on the surface graphically. It is also possible to determine the heat transfer conditions using reference values and to calculate the temperatures of the strand.
- a data memory and / or at least a part of the evaluation device is arranged within the device 1.
- additional sensors can be arranged on the surface of the device in addition to the pressure measuring film 2, for example pressure sensors of another type or temperature sensors and other sensors for measuring the conditions on the steel surface.
- a nozzle replaceable device 6 can be arranged in the body of the device 1.
- This device 6 can serve to replace defective nozzles. This can be done, for example, by a robotic arm. are taken, which is disposed within the device in a recess under a hinged lid and can install and remove if necessary nozzles.
- FIG. 3 shows the device 1 according to FIG. 2 in the roller gap of a roller carpet, as already shown in FIGS. 1a or 1b.
- the device 1 is inserted instead of a strand in the continuous casting.
- the rollers 3, 4 nozzle blocks and spray cone 5 are also shown the continuous casting.
- the device 1 comprises a pressure measuring film 2, which is arranged on one of the broad sides of the device 1, so that the pressure distribution of the cooling medium through the film 2 can be detected.
