However, in the chemical reaction between the specific component of the molten metal and the specific component compound of the molten slag, usually, the direction in which the specific component compound is produced is the spontaneous direction of the reaction,
The electrode contains a specific component commensurate with the specific component amount of the normal portion of the ingot, and when remelting corresponding to the ingot portion where the specific component amount is desired to be reduced, use slag with a small amount of the specific component compound Is desirable. According to this method, the amount of the specific component of the ingot can be easily controlled by utilizing the spontaneous reaction. The above-mentioned slag with a small amount of the specific component compound is obtained by using such a slag from the early stage of ESR, and by adding an additional slag with a small amount of the specific component compound or no slag. Further, in such a reaction system, when the amount of the specific component compound of the molten slag is small, if the additional slag having a large amount of the compound is added, the decrease in the amount of B in the ingot is stopped early and the equilibrium is reached. Can be moved to a state.

Each of the above-mentioned actions is also obtained when manufacturing a turbine rotor shaft as an ESR ingot. When manufacturing a turbine rotor shaft containing B as a specific component, B dissolved in the electrode and B oxide in the molten slag are in an equilibrium state by the following reaction. Note that B
Is an element that evaporates relatively easily, and part of it evaporates during ESR, and is involved in the following reaction with a yield of about several tens of percent. 4B + 3O 2 = 2B 2 O 3 3SiO 2 + 4B = 3Si + 2
B 2 O 3 Here, when remelting the electrode corresponding to the shaft portion having a low B content, when the molten slag having a B oxide content smaller than that in the equilibrium state (including the case where it does not contain B oxide) is used, the above reaction is in an equilibrium state. Therefore, B in the molten metal moves into the molten slag, and as a result, the amount of B in the ingot decreases. As the above reaction progresses, the amount of B oxide in the molten slag gradually increases, so that the above reaction is in equilibrium and the amount of B in the molten steel becomes almost constant. Even in this state, there is evaporation of B from the molten steel, so the amount of B in the molten steel is the B in the electrode.
It is several tens% of the amount, and the B content of the ingot corresponds to the B content of the electrode. Therefore, the B content can be reduced only in the shaft portion by utilizing these changes in the reaction. The above-mentioned molten slag with a small amount of B oxide is ESR
It can be obtained by using such a slag from the beginning, or by adding an additional slag having a small amount of B oxide into the molten slag.

On the other hand, when the electrode corresponding to the body is redissolved, B contained in the electrode is prepared by using a molten slag containing B oxide in an amount equal to or more than the equilibrium amount of B involved in the reaction. The amount of B intended by the amount (including the yield) is included in the ingot. The above-mentioned molten slag in which the amount of B oxide is almost in equilibrium can be obtained by the above-mentioned reaction progressing into an equilibrium state, and the amount of B oxide in the molten slag having a small amount of B oxide is It can also be obtained by adding a large amount of additional slag. The addition of additional slag can be repeated a plurality of times as described later. The reduction of the B content of the ingot is also stopped by using the molten slag containing the B oxide in an amount exceeding the equilibrium state.

Further, when the turbine rotor shaft has shaft portions at both ends, by using slag containing no B oxide in the early stage of ESR, B is oxidized in the early stage of ESR and moves into the slag, and The B content in the ingot also increases as the B content in the end portion decreases and the B oxide in the slag gradually increases. Therefore, the B content is reduced in the shaft portion located at one end of the ingot, and the B content is almost constant according to the B content of the electrode from the ingot body portion to the other end side. Further, by adding an additional slag containing no B content to the other end of the ingot, the amount of B in the ingot is reduced in the same manner as in the initial stage of ESR, and the other end of the ingot, that is, the shaft portion, has a B content. The amount can be reduced. In addition, ES
The amount of B oxide in the molten slag gradually increases even after the initial R and after the addition of the additional slag having a small B oxide content (including the case where it is not included), the additional slag can be further added once or more. . By reintroducing the additional slag, the portion having a small B content can be easily adjusted to a desired range.

Mold size: 850 mm diameter × 3600 mm high, slag composition: CaF 2 -CaO-Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 · average dissolving rate: 600~700kg / h · ingot size: 853Mm diameter × 1990Mm length (9100kg) ESR is As shown in Table 2, when the electrode of a predetermined length is dissolved
The additional slag was repeatedly charged under the conditions shown in. The B content distribution in the axial direction of the obtained ingot was measured, and the result is shown in FIG. As is clear from the figure, the ingot obtained has a small B content at both axial end portions (20 to 30% of the electrode B amount).
%), And in the meantime, a large amount of B in the amount commensurate with the amount of B
(About 40 to 60% of the amount of electrode B) was stably contained. Using the above ingot as a raw material, a turbine rotor shaft was manufactured in which both ends were a shaft part and the space between them was a body part, and high temperature strength was obtained in the body part, while good weldability was secured in the shaft part. And low C to improve seizure resistance
The build-up welding was performed with the r material, but the welding was successful. Further, in the turbine rotor shaft, no discontinuity portion or defective structure portion was found at the boundary portion between the shaft portion and the body portion.

Further, according to the method of manufacturing a turbine rotor shaft by electroslag remelting of the present invention, in the method of manufacturing a turbine rotor shaft in which the B content of the shaft portion is lower than that of the body portion by electroslag remelting, Using an electroslag remelting electrode containing an amount of B corresponding to the amount of body B, the amount of B oxide is less than the amount equilibrating with B involved in the reaction when remelting the electrode corresponding to the shaft. In addition to using slag, since the molten slag that contains almost the same amount of B oxide that equilibrates with B involved in the reaction when the electrode corresponding to the body is redissolved is used, the amount of B in the shaft is reduced, A turbine rotor shaft with an increased amount of B in the body can be manufactured without forming discontinuities, and has excellent high-temperature characteristics and excellent weldability at the shaft. It is possible to obtain the shaft.
