Definitions
- the present invention relates to a heat treatment unit, in particular a cooling hood, a device and a method for the heat treatment of hot-rolled long steel products.
- cooling media In order to set the mechanical properties, such as in particular the yield point, the tensile strength or the hardness, of hot-rolled long steel products, these are cooled in a targeted manner by means of cooling devices during and/or after a hot-rolling process.
- water or a water-air mixture is generally used as the cooling medium in the prior art, as is disclosed, for example, in EP 1 412 543 B1.
- such cooling media lead to the development of the so-called Leidenfrost phenomenon, which leads to deviations in the cooling rate over the entire length of the long steel product and thus to the formation of inhomogeneous microstructures.
- a method and a device for hardening a rail head by means of air or nitrogen is also known from US Pat. No. 4,913,747.
- the coolant is fed via a line system to a collector that includes a large number of nozzles.
- a disadvantage of this embodiment variant is the complex construction of the cooling apparatus with the many nozzles and bores.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a device that is improved compared to the prior art and a method for the heat treatment of hot-rolled long steel products that is improved compared to the prior art. Description of the invention
- the object is achieved by a heat treatment unit having the features of patent claim 1, by a device having the features of patent claim 9 and by a method having the features of patent claim 12.
- the present invention relates to a heat treatment unit, in particular a cooling hood, preferably for use in a device for the heat treatment of hot-rolled long steel products, comprising a chamber with an inlet opening, via which a gaseous cooling medium can be fed to the chamber, and a gap-shaped outlet opening, via which the gaseous cooling medium can be carried out in an accelerated manner, the chamber comprising a middle chamber segment and a first and second outer chamber segment extending from the middle chamber segment and both outer chamber segments having a cross section which tapers proportionally towards their distal ends.
- the construction of the heat treatment unit according to the invention in particular the proportional reduction of the flow cross section over the length of the respective outer chamber segment, enables a uniform flow of the gaseous cooling medium, such as air or nitrogen, at the gap-shaped outlet opening over the entire length of the chamber.
- the gaseous cooling medium such as air or nitrogen
- the hot-rolled long steel products can be cooled homogeneously and evenly, so that their mechanical properties are improved.
- the outlet opening is designed in the form of a slit, the maintenance effort is also lower in contrast to conventional conical or flat jet nozzles.
- cross section means a cross-sectional area
- long steel product is understood to mean a metallic product which can have a length of up to 200 m, such as rails, in particular railway rails, H-shaped beams, U-shaped profiles, angles, etc.
- the middle chamber segment advantageously has a constant cross-section along a longitudinal axis of the chamber, it being preferably provided in this connection that the inlet opening is arranged in the middle chamber segment.
- the inlet opening can have an inlet cross section that is smaller than the cross section of the central chamber segment. Due to the larger cross section in the central chamber segment, the cooling medium flowing into the chamber through the inlet opening can first calm down before it flows further in the direction of the gap-shaped outlet opening. In addition, due to the inlet cross-section, which is larger than that of the slot-shaped outlet opening, the flow velocity of the cooling medium at the inlet of the chamber is kept very low and high at the outlet.
- the turbulence is significantly reduced as a result of the change in cross section and the associated change in flow speed, so that it can be ensured that the cooling medium flows out very evenly over the entire length of the slot-shaped outlet opening.
- the factor of Velocity change between inlet and outlet of the chamber can preferably be 3 to 20.
- the flow velocity at the inlet can be 10 to 50 m/s.
- the flow rate of the cooling medium at the outlet can then be 3 to 20 times this, depending on the selected cross-sectional ratios.
- the cross sections arranged at the distal ends of the two outer chamber segments are smaller by a factor of at least 3, preferably at least a factor of 4, even more preferably at least a factor of 10 compared to the cross section of the central chamber segment.
- each of the chamber segments advantageously has a cross-sectional section which tapers conically in the direction of the slot-shaped outlet opening and which can be embodied symmetrically or alternatively also asymmetrically.
- the inlet opening can be formed directly in the middle chamber segment in the form of an opening.
- the heat treatment unit comprises an inlet connection which is arranged in the inlet opening and is formed from a cup-shaped body and has an opening in each case aligned with the outer chamber segments.
- each of the two openings has a cross section that corresponds at least to half the inlet cross section. This also prevents the formation of turbulence within the chamber and thus has an advantageous effect on the flow properties.
- the bottom of the cup-shaped inlet connection ensures that the cooling medium flowing into the middle chamber segment flows into the two outer ones
- Chamber segments is deflected and thus can not exit directly through the slit-shaped outlet opening of the middle chamber segment.
- the pressure above the slit-shaped outlet opening can be kept constant over the entire length of the chamber.
- the cross section of the slot-shaped exit opening is designed to be adjustable.
- the cooling rate for the hot-rolled long steel product can be continuously controlled by adjusting the cross section of the slit-shaped outlet.
- the slit-shaped outlet can be adjusted in the range of 0.5 to 50 mm depending on the required cooling width.
- the present invention relates to a device for the heat treatment of hot-rolled long steel products, comprising a receiving device for receiving the hot-rolled long steel product and at least one heat treatment unit according to the invention, via which the long steel product to be cooled can be subjected to a gaseous cooling medium, in particular air or nitrogen.
- a gaseous cooling medium in particular air or nitrogen.
- ambient air can be supplied to the heat treatment unit as a cooling medium by means of a suitable blower device. Due to the narrowing of the cross section at the gap-shaped outlet opening, the cooling medium is accelerated through the latter in such a way that the cooling medium acts on the surface of the hot-rolled long steel product to be cooled at a high speed, which can be, for example, 200 m/s.
- the device also comprises at least one fan device, via which a gaseous cooling medium, such as air or nitrogen, can be supplied to the heat treatment unit.
- a gaseous cooling medium such as air or nitrogen
- speed-controlled fan device a continuous adjustment of the cooling rate, which can be, for example, 1 to 20 K / s.
- the at least one heat treatment unit is advantageously arranged in the device in such a way that the slit-shaped outlet opening is positioned longitudinally parallel to the receiving device.
- the distance between the gap-shaped outlet opening and the receiving device is adjustable, particularly preferably such that the distance between the outlet opening and the surface of the long steel product to be cooled is 5 to 300 mm.
- the device for heat treatment is of modular design, so that one or more heat treatment unit(s) can be moved around a length segment of the long steel product and/or one or more
- Heat treatment unit (s) can be arranged along several length segments or along the entire length of the long steel product or are.
- the device therefore advantageously comprises at least one temperature sensor via which the temperature of the long steel product, preferably during a
- the temperature sensor is preferably a pyrometer or a thermal imaging camera. Other temperature sensors known to a person skilled in the art at the time of the application can also be used advantageously.
- Another advantage of the modular design is its usability. Different workpiece geometries can be cooled by using a plurality of heat treatment units. An individual adaptation to the shape and the required cooling capacity is possible by changing the number and redesigning the heat treatment unit or the cooling hood.
- structural changes in the long steel product can be detected and monitored directly in the cooling process using electromagnetic sensors.
- the cooling rate can be adjusted accordingly based on the determined microstructure.
- the cooling rate can be set reliably and stably and offers the flexibility to flexibly adjust the necessary cooling rates for the heat treatment process for all common and also special material compositions; -
- the use of ambient air as a cooling medium is particularly resource-saving compared to the liquid cooling media currently used, such as water, oil and / or water-air mixtures; by using a blower device, such as a fan, a large volume of air can be transported at a low pressure, preferably up to 1320 mbar, so that no compressor is required.
- the present invention also relates to a method for the heat treatment of a hot-rolled long steel product, with this product being fed directly to a device according to the invention and heat-treated following a hot-rolling process.
- the gaseous cooling medium in particular air or nitrogen, can be used depending on the desired cooling intensity a speed of at least 25 m/s, preferably at a speed of at least 50 m/s, more preferably at a speed of at least 100 m/s, even more preferably at one
