Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for determining the amount of inoculant to be added to a cast-iron melt according to the preamble of claim 1 .
- Cast iron is a commonly used construction material for components of trucks. It is for example used in engine blocks, cylinder heads, cylinder liners, main- bearing caps and spring mountings. As most cast components undergo no subsequent heat treatment or plastic machining to modify their microstructure or remedy defects in them, their characteristics are largely already determined at the casting stage.
- the solidification structure i.e. the amount and appearance of the primary phase (austenite) and the eutectic structure (austenite and graphite), is therefore extremely important for the characteristics of the cast item.
- the amounts of these phases/structures can be determined by so-called thermal analysis based on cooling curves recorded during solidification of a sample from the melt. Thermal analysis is described in, for example, specifications
- a known way of using thermal analysis to check phases and structures in cast iron is based on the liquidus temperature of the molten iron, i.e. the temperature at which the melt begins to solidify. Depending on how much the measured liquidus temperature differs from a predetermined value, the structure for the finished cast item can be modified, e.g. by adding carbon.
- this known method does not provide an exact measure of how the internal structures nucleate or grow, but merely an approximate estimate of the respective amounts of the primary phase and the eutectic phase.
- Another known practice is to control the nucleation of the internal structures of the iron by adding inoculant, but with the known methods it has been found difficult to optimise the amount of inoculant to be added.
- the nucleation of the internal structures of the iron therefore greatly affects its characteristics, inter alia its incidence of defects and its strength.
- the structure of the eutectic phase is particularly important.
- the fact that previously known methods provide no good measure of the structure of this phase can lead to strength problems and scrapping.
- the object of the invention is therefore to indicate a method which reliably determines the amount of inoculant to be added to a cast-iron melt and which solves the above problems or at least reduces them to a minimum.
- thermocouple connected to analysis equipment
- each sample holder with an amount of molten iron; recording a first cooling curve during solidification of the iron in the first sample holder, and a second cooling curve during solidification of the iron in the second sample holder;
- the predetermined amount of inoculant for the casting process is an average value based on saturation levels for inoculant in a plurality of cast-iron melts in the specific casting process.
- the predetermined amount of inoculant for the casting process is a selected value from saturation levels for inoculant in a plurality of cast-iron melts in the specific casting process.
- the effect of the latter on the eutectic temperature is with advantage calculated away from the inoculated sample on the basis of a predetermined relationship.
- the amount of inoculant to be added in the specific casting process may if so desired be directed towards over-inoculation or under-inoculation of the melt.
- the method preferably relates to determining the structure of a lamellar graphite type of iron. LIST OF DRAWINGS
- Figure 4 Diagram showing the difference between the respective eutectic temperatures TE
- Solidification of a melt involves the initiation of small solid nuclei of
- agglomerated atoms about which nuclei the melt will thereafter solidify.
- the formation of these nuclei is controlled by the total energy in the melt.
- a system e.g. a metal melt, endeavours to have as low an energy content as possible. Whether it is the solid state or the liquid state of a substance which has the lower energy content depends on its temperature.
- the formation of a solid phase in a melt entails the formation of a volume in which the atoms are arranged in an energy-economising way.
- a surface forms between the solid and liquid phases. The atoms in the surface become pressed into positions which they would not normally occupy, and energy is required for them to arrive there.
- this supercooling may amount to several hundreds of degrees, but is normally significantly less. How much supercooling is required for nucleation to take place is an indicator of how easily nucleation can take place in the melt, also known as the melt's nucleation potential.
- the solidification pattern of a cast iron may be described by an Fe-C phase diagram, as in Figure 1 , with temperature on the vertical axis and carbon content percentage by weight on the horizontal axis.
- Figure 1 indicates the carbon content in the region which is relevant to cast iron, i.e. up to 5%.
- the lines in the diagram demarcate various phases which the iron assumes at different temperatures and carbon contents.
- the diagram features the Iiquidus line 1 and a line which represents the eutectic temperature 2. These two lines are important for predicting the structure of the cast product.
- austenite also called ⁇ iron, precipitates.
- carbon also begins to precipitate out from the remaining melt. The carbon precipitates in the form of graphite which, depending on its configuration, greatly influences the characteristics of the material.
- the nucleation potential may be controlled by adding nucleation points in the form of inoculant. Adding inoculant raises the temperature at which the eutectic solidification takes place. In other words, less supercooling of the melt is required for the eutectic solidification to begin.
- this relationship is important, since it results in a fixed level for how high the eutectic temperature in a cast-iron melt can in practice become.
- the nucleation potential in an uninoculated melt can therefore be compared with a stable reference value.
- the method according to the invention is described in detail below.
- a cast-iron melt is made, which is done by melting initial material, e.g. scrap, returns, pig iron and machining waste.
- initial material e.g. scrap, returns, pig iron and machining waste.
- the composition and temperature of the melt are monitored and any necessary adjustments are made.
- a thermal analysis test rig As a second step, a thermal analysis test rig is provided.
- the test rig (see Figure 3) comprises two sample cups 1 and 2, e.g. sand cups, each provided with a thermocouple 3 and 4 respectively.
- the thermocouples are connected to a set of analysis equipment 5 on which thermal analysis software is run.
- a predetermined amount of inoculant which represents the inoculant saturation level of the specific casting process is placed in the one sample cup.
- the inoculant saturation level i.e. the amount of inoculant which has to be added to cast-iron melts for them to become saturated with it, varies with the process conditions during the making of the melts. These conditions comprise for example the composition of the initial material (scrap) and the settings of the process equipment.
- casting processes In industrial processes for making cast-iron components, so-called casting processes, however, endeavours are made to keep the process conditions as constant as possible, i.e. to keep them within specific limits.
- In making certain components, e.g. engine blocks endeavours are always made to use scrap with a composition which is kept within stated limits and/or always to use the same casting equipment for making a given component. This is done so that as the results of different casting operations may be as uniform as possible.
- the amount of inoculant to be added in the one sample cup to ensure that the melt placed in it will reach saturation level may therefore be determined beforehand as a representative value for a specific casting process.
- the representative value may thereafter be used each time a new cast-iron melt is to be made in the casting process.
- This representative value may for example be a mean value of inoculant saturation levels determined for a plurality of melts for a specific casting process, e.g. a process for casting engine blocks of a certain type.
- the representative value may also be selected from a plurality of different inoculant saturation levels determined on a plurality of melts for a specific casting process.
- the representative value may be a median value or a maximum value or a minimum.
- the representative value for the saturation level for the specific casting process is then stored, e.g. in a nonvolatile memory in a computer, from which it can be retrieved and used each time the specific casting process is to take place. It is also possible to determine inoculant saturation values for a plurality of different cast-iron melts and thereafter adapt a linear relationship to these saturation values. The way the amount of inoculant required for an individual cast-iron melt to become saturated is determined is as follows. The eutectic temperature TEiow is determined simultaneously for two samples taken from the melt. The one sample is uninoculated and the other has inoculant added. For saturation level determination, a sample from the melt is poured
- the nucleation potential of the inoculated sample is then determined from the difference between TE
- the procedure is repeated several times and the one sample is inoculated with progressively more inoculant each time than in the previous batch.
- This level is the respective melt's inoculant saturation level.
- the saturation level is determined for a plurality of melts, on the basis of which an average saturation level for a specific casting process can be determined or a representative value be selected.
- Figure 4 shows how the eutectic temperature TE
- the inoculant saturation level is thus determined by repeated experiments each comprising two simultaneous measurements in two separate identical test cups under the same conditions. This is because in thermal analysis whereby cooling curves are recorded during solidification of cast iron in test cups the curves are affected by various factors which are at variance with the nucleation potential of the melt. The following are example of these factors:
- the inoculant usually contains silicon, e.g. in the form of FeSi. Silicon alters the chemical composition of the melt in the inoculated test piece. As the temperature at which the eutectic solidification begins is based on the chemical composition of the melt, the eutectic temperature in the inoculated sample increases when silicon is added. To exclude also this distorting factor, the effect of silicon on the eutectic temperature is subtracted from the inoculated sample.
- the inoculant may also be alloyed not with silicon but with other substances which affect the equilibrium lines in the phase diagram, i.e. they affect the eutectic temperature. It is also possible to arrive at relationships for how these substances affect the eutectic temperature, and to use these relationships to compensate the eutectic temperature in the inoculated sample.
- test cups are then filled with melt, and cooling curves are recorded during solidification of the samples. From the two cooling curves, the lowest eutectic temperature TE
- the effect of any silicon content of the inoculant on the eutectic temperature of the inoculated sample is eliminated before that temperature is subtracted from the eutectic temperature of the uninoculated sample.
- the calculated difference in °C is used as a basis for determining how much inoculant has to be added to the melt to ensure that the finished cast item acquires a desired structure.
- the resulting difference in °C i.e. the nucleation potential of the melt, serves as a measure of how far the eutectic temperature of the melt is from the practically achievable eutectic temperature.
- the resulting difference in °C can be related to the final structure of the cast item. The relationship between the temperature difference, the amount of inoculant to be added and the final structure of the cast item can be determined empirically.
- the spread may be caused by variation in the composition of the individual melts within the stated limits.
- the saturation level for inoculant for each individual melt differs from the saturation level for the casting process.
- Adding inoculant to the individual melts in precisely the amount indicated by the saturation level for the casting process would lead to their being over-inoculated or under-inoculated.
- over-inoculation and under-inoculation have various disadvantages with regard to costs and material characteristics.
- the desired amount of inoculant is added to the melt, followed by the melt being poured into a suitable casting mould. It may of course happen that only one melt is to be made and that there is no predetermined value for its inoculant saturation level. In that case, the saturation level is determined by repeated experiments with two test cups as described above. The amount of inoculant determined is added to the melt, which is then used for casting.
- a 10 tonne melt of the grey iron type with lamellar graphite was prepared in a medium-frequency furnace from the manufacturer ABB.
- the amount of inoculant needed for the melt to be saturated with inoculant was determined.
- four test batches were prepared, numbered 1 to 4.
- the sampling equipment, see Figure 3, for each batch comprised two sample holders 1 and 2 in the form of sand cups each provided with a thermocouple 3, 4.
- thermocouples The specifications of the sand cups and thermocouples were as follows:
- Cup material 65 gram shell-moulded sand cups made of silica
- Thermocouples NiCr-NiAI alloy insulated by high-purity quartz
- thermocouple locations as Figure 3. During the measurements, the average volume of the cups was 4.86 cm 3 (based on spot weight of 350 g and density of 7.22 g/cm 3 ). Each thermocouple was connected to a separate channel of the analysis equipment comprising a computer whose processor was used to run ATAS evaluation software from the manufacturer Novacast. The mean weight of the melt accommodated in the test cups was calculated, and inoculant 6 of the Superseed type, an alloy of FeSi with strontium content, was placed in test cup 2 of batches 2 to 4. The amount of inoculant was calculated with respect to the amount of melt accommodated in the test cups, in wt% of cast iron. The amounts of inoculant added appear in Table 1 . No inoculant was put into any of the batch 1 test cups.
- test cups were then each filled with the same amount of melt, and cooling curves were recorded during solidification of the samples and were analysed in the evaluation programme.
