Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for adjusting the taper of a mold of a continuous casting plant, in particular a slab casting plant, during a casting process, comprising the steps: measuring temperature values along at least one central measuring path running in a casting direction along an adjustable arranged mold wall; and measuring temperature values along at least one edge-side measurement path running in a casting direction along the adjustably arranged mold wall, the edge-side measurement path running between the central measurement path and a side edge of the mold wall and a distance of the edge-side measurement path from this side edge of the mold wall being smaller than one Distance of the central measuring path to the other side edge of the mold wall.
  • the invention relates to a device for a continuous caster, in particular a slab caster, comprising: at least one mold with mutually opposite, adjustably arranged mold walls; at least one adjustment mechanism for adjusting the mold walls; at least one control electronics for controlling the adjustment mechanism; at least one central sensor device connected to the control electronics for measuring temperature values along at least one central measuring path running in a casting direction along one of the adjustably arranged mold walls; and at least one with the control electronics connected edge-side sensor device for measuring temperature values along at least one edge-side measurement path running in a casting direction along the adjustably arranged mold wall, the edge-side measurement path running between the central measurement path and a side edge of the mold wall and a distance of the edge-side measurement path from this side edge of the mold wall smaller is as a distance from the central measurement path to the other side edge of the mold wall.
  • a corresponding method and a corresponding device are out DE 10 2014 227 013 A1 known.
  • the strand width of a cast strand with adjustable mold walls can be set on opposite narrow sides of a mold.
  • the mold comprises a pouring passage which is continuous from an inlet end, via which a molten metal is poured into the mold, to an outlet end, from which a strand with a strand shell and a liquid core emerges, which cross section is perpendicular to a casting direction, which is the direction of the is defined by the molten metal flowing, has a rectangular shape.
  • the strand can be designed, for example, as a slab.
  • a volume loss occurs during cooling of the molten metal within the mold, which means that a cross-sectional area of the molten metal or the resulting strand at the inlet end of the mold is larger than a cross-sectional area of the molten metal or strand at the outlet end of the mold.
  • the casting passage of the mold is designed to be tapered in the casting direction.
  • the taper of the casting passage of the mold is usually determined by varying the inclinations of the mold walls which are adjustably arranged on opposite narrow sides set. Without such a conical design of the casting passage of the mold, the strand would no longer be guided in the lower region of the mold or in the region of the outlet end. Then controlled heat dissipation from the strand to the usually water-cooled mold walls is no longer possible.
  • the conicity of the casting passage of the mold is referred to as the conicity of the mold in the context of the present application.
  • Figure 1A shows a result with an optimal conicity of a mold 1.
  • a lateral section of the mold 1 is shown in cross section perpendicular to the casting direction, which has two opposing mold walls 2, each of which is assigned to a broad side of the mold 1.
  • the mold 1 has two oppositely arranged, adjustable mold walls 3, each of which is assigned to a narrow side of the mold 1 and of which in Figure 1A only one mold wall 3 is shown.
  • a strand 4 is guided through the mold 1 and has a strand shell 5 and a core 6 made of liquid metal. The strand 4 lies everywhere on the mold walls 2 and 3 and is thereby optimally guided and at the same time cooled by means of the mold walls 2 and 3.
  • Figure 1B shows a result when the taper of a mold 1 is too low.
  • the strand 4 or the strand shell 5 bulges on the narrow sides and, at the same time, the strand 4 flattens toward the edge, ie has a smaller thickness there than in a central region.
  • the edge of the strand 4 is no longer in full contact with the mold walls 2 and 3, so that the strand 4 is not optimally guided and is cooled unevenly by means of the mold walls 2 and 3.
  • Figure 1C shows a result when the taper of a mold 1 is too strong. This results in a bulge 6 on a narrow side surface of the strand 4 or the strand shell 5 and in longitudinal depressions 7 near the edge, the so-called rain gutters, on the broad sides of the strand 4. This results the narrow sides and the edge portions of the broad sides of the strand 4 are no longer in full contact with the mold walls 2 and 3, so that the strand 4 is not optimally guided and is cooled unevenly by means of the mold walls 2 and 3. Due to the insufficient cooling on the narrow sides of the strand 4, the strand shell 5 is not sufficiently strong on the narrow sides of the strand 4. This leads to the formation of bulges on the narrow sides of the strand 4 after the strand 4 emerges from the mold 1 and in a secondary cooling of a continuous casting plant.
  • An object of the invention is to improve the quality of a strand cast using a continuous casting plant.
  • the difference between the second surface under the edge-side temperature distribution curve and the first surface under the central temperature distribution curve can be used to determine whether there is an above-described curvature running in the longitudinal direction of the strand on the narrow side of the cast strand facing the adjustable mold wall , which is produced by an excessive taper of the mold and which would lead to the formation of a bulge on the narrow side of the strand after the strand exits the mold.
  • An indicator of the presence of such an arch is that the difference between the second surface and the first surface is a positive value. If it is detected that there is a bulge on the narrow side of the strand, the taper of the mold is reduced instead of - as is conventional - increased become.
  • the curvature on the narrow side is reduced or eliminated.
  • reducing the taper of the mold prevents the formation of marginal longitudinal depressions on the broad sides of the strand. Consequently, the entire surface of the strand can lie against the mold walls of the mold, as a result of which it is guided optimally and, to form a uniformly strong strand shell, is uniformly cooled by means of the, preferably water-cooled, mold walls. This reliably prevents the formation of a bulge on the narrow side of the strand emerging from the mold caused by the metal melt creeping within the strand. The creep of the molten metal within the strand is intensified in the area of the arching in that there is a coarsening of the structure there. Overall, a strand of higher quality can thus be produced.
  • the method according to the invention is carried out online, that is to say during the casting process. This enables an online adjustment of the taper of the mold, which means that the strand production process can be directly intervened and the production of rejects is considerably reduced.
  • the method according to the invention is based on the knowledge that the bulges on the narrow sides of a strand emerging from a mold can be caused by bulges on the narrow sides within the mold, which are produced by the conical mold being too strong, and that bulges produced in this way cannot be caused by a further reinforcement of the taper of the mold can be reduced or eliminated. In contrast to this, it has conventionally been assumed that the conicity of the mold must be increased if there are bulges on the narrow sides of the strand emerging from the mold, but this further deteriorates the quality of the strand.
  • the central measurement path runs in a central area, for example exactly in the middle, of the adjustably arranged mold wall, specifically in the Pouring direction, which in the context of the application is intended to mean that the central measuring path extends essentially parallel to a mathematical projection line, which is created by projecting the pouring direction perpendicular to the pouring direction onto the mold wall.
  • the fact that the central measurement path runs along the adjustably arranged mold wall should mean that the central measurement path extends over the entire length of the mold wall given in the casting direction or only over a part of this length.
  • the temperature measured values along the central measurement path are recorded at various measurement points along the central measurement path, the measurement points being spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction of the central measurement path.
  • each measuring point can be connected via a separate optical waveguide to a separate sensor arranged on the side, the signals of which allow a conclusion to be drawn about the temperature at the respective measuring point.

In this way, it can be detected on both adjustably arranged mold walls whether the strand in contact with them has a curvature running in the longitudinal direction in order to be able to adapt or optimize the conicity of the mold while taking this information into account.
  • the edge-side measurement path runs in an edge-side area, that is to say off-center, of the adjustably arranged mold wall, specifically in the pouring direction, which in the context of the application is intended to mean that the edge-side measurement path extends essentially parallel to a mathematical projection line which is through a projection the pouring direction perpendicular to the pouring direction on the mold wall.
  • the fact that the edge-side measurement path runs along the adjustably arranged mold wall should mean that the edge-side measurement path extends over the entire length of the mold wall given in the casting direction or only over part of this length.
  • the temperature measurement values along the edge-side measurement path are recorded at various measurement points along the edge-side measurement path, the measurement points being spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction of the edge-side measurement path.

  • two or more can also be arranged on the adjustably arranged mold wall there are corresponding edge-side measurement paths along which temperature measurement values associated with the respective edge-side measurement path are recorded. Temperature measurements along edge-side measurement paths can be recorded on each of the two oppositely arranged, arranged mold walls and evaluated according to the method according to the invention. In this way, it can be detected on both adjustably arranged mold walls whether the strand in contact with them has a curvature running in the longitudinal direction in order to be able to adapt or optimize the conicity of the mold while taking this information into account.
  • the central temperature distribution curve is generated from the temperature measurements along the central measurement path, either continuously or at discrete times during the casting process.

  • the second area under the edge-side temperature distribution curve can be determined by integrating a path-dependent temperature function that reproduces the edge-side temperature distribution curve over the edge-side measurement path.
  • the difference between the second surface and the first surface is preferably determined by subtracting the first surface (subtrahend) from the second surface (minuend).
  • the first surface can serve as a measure of the heat currently dissipated from the strand centrally to the mold wall.
  • the second surface can serve as a measure of the heat currently dissipated from the strand to the mold wall at the edge.
  • the difference between the second surface and the first surface can be used to draw conclusions about the behavior of the strand against the respective adjustable mold wall. If, for example, the second surface, which indicates the heat dissipated on the edge of the mold wall, is larger than the first surface, which specifies the heat dissipated in the center of the mold wall, it can be concluded that on the respective narrow side of the strand there is a one running in the longitudinal direction of the strand There is a bulge or that the strand is not in contact with the mold wall in the region of the bulge. The taper of the mold can then be reduced taking into account the positive difference between the second surface and the first surface.
  • the second area is smaller than the first area, it can be concluded that the edges of the respective narrow side of the strand are not in contact with the mold wall.
  • the taper of the mold can then be increased taking into account the negative difference between the second surface and the first surface. If the second surface is equal to the first surface, it can be concluded that the strand is in full contact with the mold walls everywhere. Then the taper of the chill can go under Taking into account the difference with the value ⁇ 0 between the second surface and the first surface.

  • the positive minimum value and the negative minimum value can be zero or differ only slightly from zero.
  • the taper of the mold is varied more the more the difference is different from zero.
  • the greater the difference the clearer it is that the narrow side of the strand is partially in contact with the adjustably arranged mold wall and partly at a large distance from the mold wall, so that there is a considerable misadjustment of the conicity of the mold. This then requires a greater variation in the taper of the mold.
  • the device can be used for the automated implementation of the method according to one of the above-mentioned configurations or any combination of at least two of these configurations with one another.

  • the adjustment of the opposing mold walls includes in particular the adjustment of the angle of inclination of the mold walls.
  • the adjustment mechanism for adjusting the mold walls can be hydraulic or electromechanical, for example. If the mold walls of the narrow sides are clamped between the mold walls on the broad sides of the mold, the mold walls on the broad sides of the mold can first be relieved to adjust the mold walls on the narrow sides in order to reduce the clamping forces. Then the mold walls on the narrow sides can be adjusted and then the mold walls on the broad sides can be reset to the original clamping force.

  • the so-called fiber Bragg grids allow the use of the Wavelength division multiplexing. This means that many sensors with different Bragg wavelengths can be implemented along and in one optical fiber. A field of several dozen to a hundred sensors can be realized in this way without having to equip the mold walls with many individual point-shaped sensors, which would be technically very complex, would possibly unduly weaken the structure of the mold, and also due to manufacturing-related deviations in the penetration depths of the individual sensors could lead to inaccuracies in the measurement.
  • optical fibers with an integrated fiber Bragg grating are extremely suitable.
  • the sensor devices are connected to the control electronics and deliver their measurement signals to them.
