Description

METHOD FOR PREDICTING THICKNESS OF SLAG

The present invention relates to a slag thickness prediction method.

The thickness of the ladle slag is a major factor that needs to be reflected in the tap determination at the LF (LADLE FURNACE) temperature rise, and therefore slag thickness prediction is essential for setting the LF temperature elevation condition. Such ladle slag is largely composed of burnt lime inserted during the ladle and slag discharged out of the furnace ladle. At this time, the amount of burnt lime can be measured, but it is difficult to measure the amount of slag flowing out. Depending on the number of times of use of the lances and the degree of cutting of darts, the outflow amount is different for each operation. Also, the volume of the inside of the ladle varies depending on the lifetime of the ladle. Without consideration of this effect, the slag thickness can not be known.

The step of measuring the weight of the molten steel may measure the weight of the molten steel by measuring the weight of the reed before and after the molten steel is introduced.

The step of measuring the volume of the inside of the ladle may calculate the upper inner diameter, the lower inner diameter, and the inner ladle depth of the ladle using a laser distance measuring instrument.

The step of measuring the volume of the free board may be performed using a laser distance measuring instrument, wherein the upper inner diameter, the lower inner diameter, and the depth of the free board of the free board are calculated.

The terminology used in this application is used only to describe a specific embodiment and is not intended to limit the invention. The singular expressions include plural expressions unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. In the present application, the terms "comprises" or "having" and the like are used to specify that there is a feature, a number, a step, an operation, an element, a component or a combination thereof described in the specification, But do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, or combinations thereof.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, an embodiment of a slag thickness predicting method according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to like and corresponding elements, The description will be omitted.

The thickness of the slag formed on the upper portion of the molten steel accommodated in the ladle is a major factor that needs to be reflected when the molten steel is heated. Therefore, the prediction of the slag thickness is an indispensable requirement in setting the temperature increase condition in the ladle furnace (LF). Depending on the number of times of use of the lances and the degree of cutting of the darts, the flow rate of the slag may be different for each operation. In addition, the volume of the ladle varies depending on the service life of the ladle. Therefore, the accurate thickness of the slag can be obtained by considering the influence of the ladle.

1 is a process diagram illustrating a slag prediction method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method of predicting slag thickness according to the present invention comprises the steps of measuring the internal volume of the ladle, measuring the weight of molten steel leading to the ladle in the converter, measuring the surface area of the slag top, measuring the volume of the freeboard, Calculating a volume of the slag using the value, and calculating the thickness of the slag therefrom.

That is, the volume of the entire ladle, the volume of the molten steel in the ladle inside the ladle accommodating the molten steel, and the volume of the freeboard in the ladle are calculated, and the volume of the molten steel and the volume of the freeboard are subtracted from the total volume of the ladle. The volume is calculated, and the volume of the calculated slag and the cross-sectional area of the slag accommodated in the ladle are measured to obtain the thickness of the slag.

3 is a diagram illustrating the measurement of the volume inside the ladle of the slag prediction method according to an embodiment of the present invention. 3, the volume of the inside of the ladle can be calculated by using the laser distance measuring instrument 100, the upper inner diameter B, the lower inner diameter A, and the depth C of the ladle inside the ladle. The upper inner diameter B and the lower inner diameter A of the ladle may be different from each other depending on the melting loss in the ladle so that the upper inner diameter B and the lower inner diameter A are all measured shall.

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating calculation of the weight of molten steel in the slag prediction method according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. As shown in Fig. 2, when the molten steel is introduced from the converter to the ladle, the weight of the molten steel stored in the ladle can be determined by measuring the weight of the molten steel before and after the molten steel is discharged. Once the weight of the molten steel is measured, the volume of the molten steel can be calculated by dividing the weight of the molten steel by the density of the molten steel. At this time, the density of the molten steel can be variously formed depending on the type of steel.

4 is a view showing the measurement of the surface area of the slag S according to an embodiment of the present invention. The height of the freeboard and the surface area of the slag S can be measured by using the laser distance measuring machine 100 on the ladle L containing the molten steel F and the slag S as shown in FIG. The freeboard volume can be calculated from the measured freeboard height and slag S surface area and the volume of the slag S can be measured from the volume of molten steel F calculated previously and the total volume inside the ladle L have.

Therefore, the diameter D of the slag surface is measured using the laser range finder 100, the surface area of the slag S is calculated therefrom, and the calculated surface area of the slag S and the calculated volume of the slug S are used The thickness of the slag S can be obtained. That is, the calculated volume of the slag S is divided by the surface area of the slag S to obtain the thickness of the slag S, which can be used at the time of raising the temperature of the molten steel F.

The present invention can predict the slag thickness inside the ladle by using a simple addition device and increase the temperature accuracy and efficiency by controlling the temperature increase condition of the ladle furnace from the predicted slag thickness for each heat.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit of the invention as set forth in the appended claims. The present invention can be variously modified and changed by those skilled in the art, and it is also within the scope of the present invention.
