Abstract

The invention relates to a secondary cooling method for effectively controlling the surface-layer solidification structure of a continuous cast slab. After the continuous cast slab is discharged out of a crystallizer, the casting machine vertical section is cooled at the cooling speed of 3-10 DEG C/s for 50-160 s, the secondary cooling water quantity in the cooling section corresponding to the time period is increased to 2-5 times larger than the original water quantity, i.e. the broadside water quantity is 260-600 L/min, and the narrow side water quantity is 50-125 L/min. After the intensive cooling of the casting machine vertical section is finished, the subsequent cooling sections adopt the secondary cooling mode with the specific water flow of 0.55-0.8 L/kg. Shown by practices, the surface-layer structure of the cast slab poured in the secondary cooling mode is compact, the grain size is 10-100 mum, precipitates at grain boundary are few and uniform, and the original austenite grain boundary at high temperature is not obvious. High-temperature plasticity tests on steel show that the plasticity of the steel is obviously improved, which is beneficial to elimination of crack defects of the cast slab.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a continuous casting slab surface cooling method, in particular to a secondary cooling method for effectively controlling the solidification structure on the continuous casting slab surface. Effective control of the solidification structure and the position and distribution of precipitates on the surface of the slab improves the high-temperature plasticity of the steel and helps eliminate crack defects in the slab. Background technique [0002] Surface cracks of continuous casting slabs have always been an important and difficult point in the metallurgical field. Taking angle transverse cracks and surface transverse cracks as examples, scholars have carried out a lot of fruitful research work for many years, but they have not been completely solved. The mechanism of slab transverse cracks has basically been agreed: under the strain rate of continuous casting, there are two low plastic zones in the solidification process of stee...
