Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the quality of a billet by providing a sound collector to a pouring nozzle or a member connecting thereto and deciding the change of the flow in the nozzle from a molten steel to slag. CONSTITUTION:A sound collector 9 is installed to hardware 13 receiving a pouring nozzle 3 to detect the outflow sound of a molten metal. The detection signal is amplified by an amplifier 10 and is compared with a set value by a regulator 11. The detected sound decreases sharply when the flow in the nozzle changes from a molten steel 7 to slag 8. The detected value is therefore compared with the set value by the regulator 11 and when the detected value decreases below the set value, an indication controller 12 outputs a signal for closing a sliding nozzle 2. The end point of the molten metal is early and exactly decided by the above-mentioned method and therefore the intrusion of the slag into a billet is prevented and the quality of the billet is improved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a method for detecting the so-called injection end point when slag flows out from an injection nozzle in continuous casting of molten steel.

After refining, a slab usually floats above the NFC molten steel contained in the ladle. When the molten steel in the broken ladle is continuously cast and poured into the tundish, the molten steel first flows out, and when the molten steel runs out, the slag flows out.

It is important for the quality of slabs and operation to minimize the slag if flowing out from inside the ladle.

That is, when a streak 1 g flows into the tundish, in the case of continuous casting, the molten steel injected from the rear pot causes the slag to be pounded into the tundish, and the slag gets mixed into the slab, which has an adverse effect on quality. In addition, the inflowing slag causes significant erosion of the tundish lining material9, and furthermore, operational problems such as the removal of this slag occur.

Conventionally, as a method for detecting slag outflow,
No. 9-1430, a method of electrically detecting a change in conductivity by utilizing the difference in conductivity between molten steel and a slab has been reported.

The present inventors have discovered that the magnitude of the sound propagated to the nozzle differs depending on whether the object passing through the injection nozzle is molten steel or slag. In other words, if you listen to the sound of flowing fluid by placing a sounding rod against the hardware used to attach the injection nozzle, you can clearly hear the sound of flowing fluid while molten steel is flowing out, but as soon as the molten steel switches to slag, I discovered that the sound became very quiet.

is injected into the tundish 4 through a sliding nozzle 2 to control the flow rate and an injection nozzle 3 to prevent air oxidation 1, and then through a submerged nozzle 5 to the mold 6.
It is injected into the body and solidifies. Here, in the ladle 1, molten steel 7 and slag 8 exist in a layered manner, and after the molten steel is poured, the slag flows out. In order to detect this slag outflow, a sound collector 9 is attached to the metal fitting that receives the injection nozzle 3, and the outflow sound is detected by the sound collector 9. The detection signal is amplified by an amplifier 10 and compared with a set value in a regulator 11.
1 When the detected value becomes less than the set value, it is output to the indicator controller 12, and from the indicator controller 12 it is output to the sliding nozzle 2.

FIG. 3 shows sonic signals when molten steel and slag flow out. As is clear from the figure, high sound waves are generated when molten steel flows out, but the sound waves are drastically reduced from point A where slag flows out. In addition, the eight points where the floating of the slab above the tanditsu water surface was observed with the naked eye were 93 to 5 seconds later than point A, which shows that the method of the present invention allows early and accurate determination of the end point.
