- the molten steel is supplied to the molten steel pool formed by the refractory walls, and a solidified shell is formed and grown on the peripheral surface of the cooling roll.
- a twin-roll continuous casting apparatus for producing a thin cast slab having a predetermined thickness by pressure bonding.
- the equiaxed crystal ratio is defined as the ratio of the thickness of the equiaxed crystal zone to the total thickness of the slab.
- the equiaxed crystal ratio is 0%, that is, when it is composed of only columnar crystals, porosity and center segregation tend to be easily generated in the 1 / thick portion.
- the equiaxed crystal ratio is related to the molten steel temperature. Table 1 shows an example of the relationship between the superheat degree ⁇ T of molten steel in a tundish and the equiaxed crystal ratio in a low carbon steel.
- the equiaxed crystal ratio is strictly affected by the temperature of the molten steel pool described above. However, since it is generally difficult to measure the temperature of the molten steel pool, it is controlled by the temperature of the molten steel in the tundish. Since the amount of temperature drop accompanying the supply of molten steel from the tundish to the molten steel pool is almost constant depending on the individual continuous casting equipment, the relationship between the molten steel temperature in the tundish and the equiaxed crystal ratio is shown in Table 1. It is sought as shown.
- the molten steel temperature becomes too low in the early stage of casting and at the end of casting, so that the immersion nozzle is blocked. There was a risk of trouble. In addition, there is a possibility that a hot band or the like may be generated due to a large growth of the base metal, which is rolled into the thin cast slab.
- the molten steel temperature becomes excessively high in a steady state, and the equiaxed crystal ratio decreases. There was a risk.

- the method for manufacturing a thin cast slab according to the present invention includes a molten steel pool formed by a pair of rotating cooling rolls and a pair of side dams, and molten steel stored in a tundish.
- the Si concentration of the molten steel is kept constant by adding the Si additive containing Si, which generates heat when dissolved in Fe, to the molten steel in the tundish. Since the temperature is adjusted within the range and the temperature of the molten steel in the tundish is controlled within a certain range, the temperature of the molten steel can be accurately controlled, and the equiaxed crystal ratio in the longitudinal direction is reduced. A stable thin cast piece can be manufactured. In addition, even at the beginning of casting or at the end of casting when the temperature of the molten steel is low, the temperature of the molten steel can be increased by adding the Si additive, and the occurrence of troubles such as clogging of the immersion nozzle can be suppressed. It can be performed. For this reason, the molten steel temperature in a steady state can be set low, and a thin cast slab having a target equiaxed crystal ratio can be manufactured.

Abstract
Description
本願は、2018年10月3日に、日本に出願された特願2018-188404号に基づき優先権を主張し、その内容をここに援用する。
等軸晶率は、溶鋼温度と関係があることが知られている。表1に、低炭素鋼におけるタンディッシュ内の溶鋼の過熱度ΔTと等軸晶率との関係の一例を示す。
上述の双ロール式連続鋳造装置においては、例えば、鋳造初期には、タンディッシュ等の耐火物に熱が取られていまい、溶鋼温度が低下してしまう。定常時には溶鋼温度が高くなるが、鋳造末期には、再度、溶鋼温度が低下する傾向にある。
一方、鋳造初期、及び、鋳造末期の鋳造トラブルの発生を抑制するために、溶鋼の設定温度を高くした場合には、定常時において溶鋼温度が高くなりすぎて、等軸晶率が低くなってしまうおそれがあった。
また、溶鋼温度が低くなる鋳造初期や鋳造末期においても、Si添加材の添加によって溶鋼温度を上昇させることができ、浸漬ノズルの閉塞等のトラブルの発生を抑制することができ、安定して鋳造を行うことができる。このため、定常時における溶鋼温度を低く設定することができ、目標の等軸晶率を有する薄肉鋳片を製造することができる。
この場合、Si含有量が異なる複数のSi含有材の配合比を調整して、タンディッシュ内の溶鋼に添加することで、比較的容易に、前記溶鋼のSi濃度を一定の範囲内に調整するとともに、前記タンディッシュ内の溶鋼温度を一定の範囲内に制御することを可能にし、これにより、前記溶鋼プール部の前記溶鋼の温度を一定の範囲内に制御することが可能となる。
本実施形態において製造される薄肉鋳片1は、例えば、Siを0.5質量%以上8.0質量%以下の範囲で含むSi含有鋼とされている。
また、本実施形態では、製造される薄肉鋳片1の幅が200mm以上1800mm以下の範囲内、厚さが0.8mm以上5mm以下の範囲内とされている。
図1に示す双ロール式連続鋳造装置10は、一対の冷却ロール11、11と、薄肉鋳片1を支持するピンチロール12、12、および、13、13と、一対の冷却ロール11、11の幅方向端部に配設されたサイド堰15と、これら一対の冷却ロール11、11とサイド堰15とによって構成された溶鋼プール部16に供給される溶鋼3を保持するタンディッシュ18と、このタンディッシュ18内に貯留された溶鋼3を溶鋼プール部16へ供給する浸漬ノズル20と、を備えている。
また、上述の双ロール式連続鋳造装置10においては、サイド堰15は、冷却ロール11と常に摺接していることから、冷却ロール11から抜熱されて冷却される。このため、サイド堰15の表面に地金が発生しやすい傾向にある。鋳造初期や鋳造末期において、溶鋼温度が低下した場合には、地金がさらに発生しやすくなり、この地金が大きく成長した状態で薄肉鋳片1に巻き込まれると、ホットバンド等が発生し、安定して鋳造を行うことができなくなる。
さらに、溶鋼温度が変動すると、等軸晶率が変化することになり、長手方向で組織が不安定となる。
このとき、溶鋼3のSi濃度が目的の範囲内となるように、Si添加材の添加量を調整する必要がある。
すなわち、本実施形態である薄肉鋳片の製造方法においては、タンディッシュ18内の溶鋼3に対して、Si添加材を添加して、溶鋼3のSi濃度を一定の範囲内に調整するとともに、タンディッシュ18内の溶鋼温度を一定の範囲内に制御し、もって、溶鋼プール部16の溶鋼温度を一定の範囲内に制御する。
タンディッシュ18内に供給される溶鋼3のSi濃度と製品目標のSi濃度との差が0.5質量%未満では、添加量が少なく、温度上昇量が少なすぎるために、本発明の実施効果を実際上享受できないからである。また、タンディッシュ18内に供給される溶鋼3のSi濃度と製品目標のSi濃度との差が1.0質量%を超えると、添加量が多すぎるために、濃度および温度の調整精度が低下してしまうおそれが生じるからである。
m(i):Si添加材中のSi含有材iの配合(質量%)
C(i):Si含有材iのSi含有量(質量%)
Qm:溶鋼スループット(kg/min)
Qs:Si添加材の添加速度(kg/min)
ΔC:目標Si濃度に対して不足するSi濃度差(質量%)
ΔTj:目標溶鋼温度に対して不足する温度差(℃)
ΔQ(i):Si含有材iの単独添加によりSi濃度を1質量%上昇させる際に必要な溶鋼基準の添加割合(質量%)
ΔT(i):Si含有材iの単独添加によりSi濃度を1質量%上昇させる際の溶鋼温度上昇量(℃)
ΔT´(i,Tpi):温度Tpiに加熱したSi含有材iの単独添加によりSi濃度を1質量%上昇させる際の溶鋼温度上昇量(℃)
また、本実施形態では、Si添加材として、Si含有量が異なる複数種類のSi含有材を用いており、添え字のiは、各Si含有材に対応するものである。
さらに、鋳造時期によって目標の溶鋼温度との差が変化することから、添え字jは鋳造時期に対応するものである。
タンディッシュ18内の溶鋼3に対してSi添加材を添加する際、複数のSi含有材iの配合比に応じて、Si添加材の添加速度Qsを調整する。詳細には、前述の(3)式を満たすように、溶鋼スループットQm(kg/min)と、溶鋼3の目標Si濃度に対して不足するSi濃度差ΔC(質量%)と、Si添加材中のSi含有材iの配合m(i)(質量%)と、Si含有材iの単独添加によりSi濃度を1質量%上昇させる際に必要な溶鋼基準の添加割合ΔQ(i)(質量%)に応じて、Si添加材の添加速度Qs(kg/min)を調整する。これにより、添加するSi添加材がSi添加材中のSi含有材iの配合m(i)(質量%)の異なる複数のSi含有材で構成されていても、Si含有材の配合比が鋳造時期によって異なっても、溶鋼3のSi濃度を一定の範囲内にできる。
なお、タンディッシュ18内の溶鋼3に対してSi添加材を添加する際、Si添加材を、常温を超える温度に加熱してから添加してもよい。この際、Si含有材の種類ごとに、何℃に加熱すると添加量当たりの溶鋼温度が何℃上昇するか、すなわち、単位量の加熱したSi含有材iの単独添加によりSi濃度を1質量%上昇させる際の溶鋼温度上昇量(℃)を、実験又はコンピュータによるシミュレーション等により、あらかじめ設定しておくとよい。
金属Siとしては、純度が95質量%以上のものを用いることが好ましい。
また、フェロシリコンにおいては、Si含有量が40質量%未満では、溶鋼3を昇温させる効果がないことから、Si含有量が40質量%以上のものを用いることが好ましい。
なお、Si含有量が40質量%未満のフェロシリコンは、溶鋼温度を下げる場合や溶鋼温度を変化させずにSi濃度を上昇させる際に使用することは可能である。
金属Si(純度99質量%)においては、単独で添加して溶鋼Si濃度を1質量%上昇させる場合、添加割合は1.00質量%であり、溶鋼温度上昇量が+31℃となる。
フェロシリコン2号(Si含有量75質量%)においては、単独で添加して溶鋼Si濃度を1質量%上昇させる場合、添加割合は1.33質量%であり、溶鋼温度上昇量が+19℃となる。なお、フェロシリコン2号は、日本工業規格JIS2302-1998において、Si:75~80質量%、C:0.2質量%以下、P:0.05質量%以下、S:0.02質量%以下の化学成分で規定されるフェロシリコンである。
フェロシリコン3号(Si含有量40質量%)においては、単独で添加して溶鋼Si濃度を1質量%上昇させる場合、添加割合は2.50質量%であり、溶鋼温度上昇量が+3℃となる。なお、フェロシリコン3号は、日本工業規格JIS2302-1998において、Si:40~45質量%、C:0.2質量%以下、P:0.05質量%以下、S:0.02質量%以下の化学成分で規定されるフェロシリコンである。
図2に、配合比とSi濃度1質量%上昇時の溶鋼温度上昇量(℃)との関係の一例を示す。複数のSi含有材の配合比を選択することで、任意に溶鋼温度を制御可能であることが確認される。
また、タンディッシュ18の容量や溶鋼スループット等の鋳造条件が一定であれば、Si添加材を添加しない場合の溶鋼温度変化を予め求めておき、鋳造初期のみ測温プローブによる測温を実施してもよい。
また、溶鋼温度を低く設定して等軸晶の生成を促進することができ、溶鋼温度が低くなる鋳造初期や鋳造末期においても、Si添加材の添加によって溶鋼温度を上昇させることができる。よって、浸漬ノズルの閉塞や地金の巻き込みによるホットバンドの生成等のトラブルの発生を抑制することができ、安定して鋳造を行うことができる。
例えば、本実施形態の説明では、図1に示すように、ピンチロールを配設した双ロール式連続鋳造装置を例に挙げて説明したが、これらのロール等の配置に限定はなく、適宜設計変更してもよい。
図1に示す構成の双ロール式連続鋳造装置を用いて、Si濃度の目標値が0.80質量%となる組成の炭素鋼からなる薄肉鋳片を鋳造した。
薄肉鋳片のサイズは厚さ2mm×幅800mmとした。また、鋳造量を10トン、鋳造速度50m/min,鋳造時間18分とした。
本発明例においては、タンディッシュ内へ供給される溶鋼におけるSi濃度を0.10質量%とし、目標Si濃度に対して不足するSi濃度差ΔCを0.70質量%とした。
そして、表2に示す3種類のSi含有材を用いて、表3に示すように、タンディッシュ内の溶鋼に対して、Si添加材を添加した。そして、タンディッシュ内の過熱度ΔTが適正範囲(30~50℃)となるように、溶鋼温度を調整した。
そして、得られた薄肉鋳片の組織を観察し、等軸晶率を測定した。測定された等軸晶率を表3に合わせて示す。
まず、目標Si濃度に対して不足するSi濃度差ΔCにより、温度上昇の最大値が決定する。Si含有材ごとの最大温度上昇量ΔTmaxiは、表2より次式で与えられる。
ΔTmax1=31×ΔC
ΔTmax2=19×ΔC
ΔTmax3=3×ΔC
すなわち、式:19×ΔC≦ΔTj≦31×ΔCを満たすとき、フェロシリコン2号(Si含有量75質量%)と金属Siを用いる。また、式:3×△C≦△Tj≦19×△Cを満たすとき、フェロシリコン2号(Si含有量75質量%)とフェロシリコン3号(Si含有量40質量%)を用いる。
たとえば、ΔC=0.70質量%、不足する温度差ΔTjが10℃のとき、
3×0.70<10<19×0.70
であるので、フェロシリコン2号とフェロシリコン3号を選択すればよい。
(3)式より、下記の(5)式が算出される。
また、溶鋼スループットQm=584kg/minとするとQs=6.8kg/minを得る。
また、浸漬ノズルの閉塞や地金の巻き込みによるホットバンドの発生等がなく、安定して鋳造を実施することができた。
比較例1においては、タンディッシュ内へ供給される溶鋼におけるSi濃度を目標値である0.80質量%とし、定常時(鋳造開始から5min後)におけるタンディッシュ内の過熱度ΔTが40℃となるように、溶鋼温度を設定した。
比較例2においては、タンディッシュ内へ供給される溶鋼におけるSi濃度を目標値である0.80質量%とし、定常時(鋳造開始から5min後)におけるタンディッシュ内の過熱度ΔTが60℃となるように、溶鋼温度を設定した。
