Problems solved by technology

[0003] Most of the current process uses VD furnace or RH furnace for dehydrogenation. The disadvantage of VD method is that there is slag on the surface of molten steel, which offsets the suction of vacuum and affects the final dehydrogenation effect. The hydrogen content at the end point is 1.2ppm-2.0ppm
In addition, although the dehydrogenation effect of the RH furnace is better than that of the single nozzle refining furnace, the RH furnace cannot be used for dehydrogenation on high alloy steel or stainless steel.

Abstract

The invention relates to a refining furnace dehydrogenation method. The method comprises the following steps: 1) a ladle is opened to a hydraulic lifting position, the ladle is jacked, an insertion tube is inserted, bottom blowing argon is performed, the stirring intensity is 3-5L / (min.t), vacuumizing is performed to ensure that the vacuum degree is reduced to less than 2mbar in 3-5 minutes, molten steel is sucked in the vacuum chamber of a single-burner refining furnace; 2) vacuumizing is completed in 3-5 minutes to ensure that the vacuum degree is no more than 2mbar; 3) before the dehydrogenation of molten steel, alloying is performed according to the component requirements of different steels, and alloy is added to ensure that the component weight percentages of molten steel meet the requirements of the steel finished product; 4) dehydrogenation is performed, wherein the vacuum degree remains no more than 2mbar in no less than 15min; and 5) bottom blowing argon is stopped, and when molten steel is in a rest state after 2min, the vacuum valve is opened to break vacuum. The refining furnace dehydrogenation method has high dehydrogenation rate and the hydrogen content of molten steel can be reduced to 0ppm-1.5ppm. Therefore, the dehydrogenation rate is 70%-90%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for dehydrogenating a refining furnace. Background technique [0002] Hydrogen in steel is the main cause of white spots, shrinkage cavities, cracks and various types of bubbles. The solid solubility of hydrogen in steel is only a few parts per million to a dozen or so. When hydrogen exceeds the solid solubility in steel, bubbles will form during the solidification process of steel. When it is serious, it will cause the steel ingot to rise; when it is light, it will extend during hot working to form a small amount of fine cracks, that is, white spots. The existence of these defects will seriously reduce the strength, impact toughness, reduction of area and elongation of the steel, seriously affecting the steel the quality of. In the production of high-grade pipeline steel and nuclear power stainless steel, there are strict requirements on the hydrogen content in steel. For this reason, it is required that the hydrog...
