Description
The present invention relates to a bath surface visualization apparatus and a bath surface visualization method using the bath surface visualization apparatus, and more particularly, to a bath surface visualization apparatus capable of measuring the bath surface shape of a molten steel in a mold and a bath surface visualization method using the same.
In general, the continuous casting process continuously injects molten steel into a mold having a predetermined shape, and continuously injects molten steel in a mold into the lower side of the mold to form a slab, a bloom, a billet ) And the like. The molten steel injected by the circulation of the cooling water in the mold is reacted and formed into a certain shape. That is, the molten steel in the molten state is reacted by the primary cooling action in the mold, and the non-solidified molten steel drawn from the mold is solidified by the cooling water injected from the secondary cooling stand extending to the lower side of the mold, State of the state is formed.
The primary cooling in the mold is most important in determining the surface quality of the slab. That is, the primary cooling depends on the flow of the molten steel in the mold, and a mold flux is applied on the molten steel meniscus for lubrication between the molten steel and the mold inner wall and for keeping the molten steel warm. However, if a rapid flow or a bias flow occurs in the meniscus in the mold, the incorporation of the mold flux is caused, thereby causing defects in the cast steel.
In order to prevent the casting defects due to the flow of the bath surface, it is necessary to measure the shape of the bath surface of the molten steel accurately in real time during the casting operation. However, since the molten steel is kept in a high temperature state in the mold, it is difficult to measure the flow pattern (or the flow pattern, the flow shape) in real time by the improvement of the bath surface. Further, since the mold flux is applied on the molten steel bath surface, observation with the naked eye, camera, or the like is impossible so that the operator can confirm it.
Accordingly, a method of indirectly measuring the temperature of the molten steel outside the mold and visualizing the shape of the molten steel in the mold has been studied, and various methods for measuring the accurate shape of the molten steel have been demanded.

The numerical limitation of the interval between the first row X and the second row Y and the depth of the side warmer in each row makes it possible to precisely measure the temperature of the molten steel to more accurately visualize the molten steel bath surface It is for this reason.
With this configuration, when a plurality of thermometers are installed in the mold, the temperature of the molten steel can be measured at each position using the measured temperature, and the molten steel bath surface can be visualized using the measurement result.
5 is a view showing an example in which the molten steel bath surface is visualized in three dimensions (3D).
First, the temperature of the molten steel is measured using a plurality of thermometers arranged so as to form a plurality of rows and a plurality of rows along the width direction of the mold, and arranged so as to have different heights in a plurality of rows. At this time, since the plurality of thermometers form heat in the width direction of the mold, it is possible to measure the molten steel temperature in the width direction of the mold and to form a row in the longitudinal direction of the mold, Can be measured.
When the temperature of the molten steel is measured through the plurality of the thermometers, the control unit can make the data so as to visualize the molten steel bath surface using the temperatures measured in the respective thermometers. At this time, it is possible to calculate the average temperature value in each row by calculating the temperature measured in each row, that is, the temperature value measured in a plurality of thermometers disposed in each row. Once the average temperature value in each row is calculated, one temperature value, i.e., an average temperature value, may be provided for each row along the width direction of the mold.
Thus, by measuring one or more temperature values at the same bath surface height and the same main bath width point through a plurality of rows and a plurality of rows of thermometers, the bath surface shape can be more accurately visualized by converting the temperature value into an average temperature value.
In addition, the heat flux can be measured using the temperature value at different depths in the thickness direction of the
In addition, a plurality of bath surface shape results can be obtained using the relative temperature between the side heaters provided at the same depth, with the depth of the side surface warmers being uneven in the thickness direction of the
Then, the molten steel bath surface can be visualized by using the average temperature value calculated for each row. The process of visualizing the molten steel bath surface can be visualized in three dimensions (3D) as shown in FIG. 5 by converting the average temperature value of each row relative to the relative height according to the position of the molten steel bath surface, It can be displayed on a display unit (not shown) so that it can be confirmed.
By visualizing the molten steel bath surface, it is possible to grasp the molten steel flow pattern and control the flow of the molten steel through a flow regulating portion in a pattern that can prevent the steel strip defects.
As described above, according to the present invention, since the molten steel bath surface can be visualized in real time, the flow pattern of the molten steel can be grasped through the molten steel bath surface shape and the flow of the molten steel can be controlled in real time, , The quality of the cast steel can be improved.
While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed exemplary embodiments. 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 or scope of the following claims.
