Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an improved method for cooling liquid-cooled molds used in continuous casting and remelting plants and for the production of strands or blocks of steels and metals, e.g. Aluminum, copper, nickel and cobalt and their alloys are used. Furthermore, the invention relates to a system for carrying out the method according to the invention.
  • the molds used for this purpose usually consist of an alloyed or unalloyed copper insert, which is installed in a so-called "water jacket", usually consisting of a welded steel construction, the heat removal being effected by the cooling water passing through the gap between mold insert and water jacket
  • the cooling water must be so large that a vapor bubble formation on the water side of the Kokillendones is avoided.
  • plate molds made of copper which either have holes through which the cooling liquid is passed or on the cooling water side have milled grooves that serve as cooling channels and by a screwed steel plate to be sealed.
  • Such molds are in use in continuous casting, as well as in plants for remelting self-consuming electrodes either in a hot Slag bath - the electroslag remelting process - or by an arc under vacuum - the vacuum arc remelting process.
  • the liquid metal to be cast is poured from a tundish into one or more water-cooled oscillating copper molds.
  • the molds used are open at the bottom and can also have a certain conicity.
  • a first viable strand shell is formed which is continuously withdrawn from the mold.
  • casting powder slags are used.
  • an already solidified metal block (self-consumable electrode) is melted in an electrically conductive slag or under vacuum by an electric arc.
  • the liquid steel collects in a liquid metal sump, which is located in a water-cooled mold, and solidifies in this to a remelt block.
  • remelting can be used on the one hand downwardly open molds (Gleitkokillen) and on the other hand down closed molds (Standkokillen).
  • the molds may have a certain conicity.
  • the Umschmelzblock is pulled down from the mold by means of a movable bottom plate.
  • the molds for continuous casting and remelting are cooled by circulating water of a conventional water cycle, which usually consists of a cooling water storage tank, a pump set and a heat exchanger and valves, valves, measuring and control devices for the purpose of controlling and controlling the water flow.
  • Water usually has a comparatively low operating temperature.
  • a maximum flow temperature of 50-60 ° C at a temperature difference between the cooling water supply and return temperature ( ⁇ ) of about 10 ° C can be mentioned here.
  • This low temperature of the water leads to a strong cooling effect due to the self-adjusting high temperature gradient between steel and mold inner wall. This strong cooling effect can lead to a solidification of the meniscus of the liquid steel at the boundary line liquid metal and atmosphere or slag.
  • One way in which the method according to the invention is aimed is, for example, to carry out the cooling water circuit of the mold as a pressure circuit.
  • the water temperature can be increased up to 180 ° C, which corresponds to a water pressure of about 1 1 - 14 bar.
  • This approach requires a technical control of the pressure circuit, whereby safety aspects must also be considered.

  • the only modification here relates to the sealing rings of the existing molds, which must be suitable for use at higher temperatures. Salt melts suitable for this purpose are also referred to in the literature as ionic liquids.
  • Ionic liquids are characterized in that they are liquid in a temperature range between room temperature and 600 ° C, preferably between room temperature and 300 ° C, without requiring an increase in pressure is necessary.

  • the cooling of the mold is carried out indirectly as in the prior art water cooling, that is, the cooling medium does not come into direct contact with the liquid to be cast metal.
  • the dissipated heat is removed or recovered via a heat exchanger, so that a constant inlet temperature of the coolant can be ensured. Due to the very high difference between the inlet and outlet temperature of the cooling medium, a very large amount of waste heat is released, which would escape completely or partially into the atmosphere. By using a heat exchanger, this recovered heat can be fed into a heating circuit. Furthermore, by a heat exchanger subsequent suitable unit also this waste heat for steam and subsequently be used to generate electricity.
  • Another advantage of using liquid metal or molten salts is that, in the case of damage to the mold, there is no reaction of the refrigerant with the liquid metal to be poured or remelted.
  • the essential effect of the process according to the invention is that a positive effect on the quality of the strand or remelt block is achieved by the use of water under elevated pressure or of liquid metal melts or ionic liquids. Due to the higher temperature of these cooling media, the initial solidification of the metal is delayed so that it begins only below the meniscus area.
  • a method for cooling liquid-cooled usually consisting of copper molds for continuous casting or remelting self-consuming electrodes of steels or metals, in which the cooling effect of the coolant used is greatly reduced compared to water, so that the primary solidification of the liquid metal is delayed and takes place only below the meniscus in contact with the mold wall.
  • the flow rate of the coolant is set at inlet temperatures of room temperature, but also considerably higher, so that an outlet temperature of the coolant of over 80 ° C is reached.

Abstract

L'invention vise à éviter, lors de la coulée continue ou lors de la refonte d'aciers et d'alliages, une solidification progressive sur le ménisque du niveau du métal. A cet effet, les conditions de refroidissement sont réglées de telle manière que l'agent de refroidissement atteint des températures de sortie d'au moins 80 °C en présence de températures d'entrée de l'agent de refroidissement à température ambiante tout comme à des températures nettement supérieures. Sont considérés en tant qu'agents de refroidissement de l'eau sous pression, des métaux liquides à des températures inférieures à 100 °C ainsi que des fluides ioniques (sels fondus) liquides à une température supérieure à la température ambiante et à une température pouvant aller jusqu'à au moins 200 °C. Les différences de température dans la coquille entre l'entrée de l'agent de refroidissement et la sortie de ce dernier peuvent avoir une valeur comprise entre 5 °C et 150 °C.
