Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of continuous casting, and in particular to a current control method for a continuous casting billet stirrer. Background Art

[0002] Continuous casting is a key step in modern steelmaking. The quality of its ingots directly impacts the smooth progress of subsequent rolling processes and the performance of the final product. Compositional uniformity of the ingots is a key quality indicator. Carbon segregation can lead to uneven composition distribution within the ingots, affecting their mechanical and processability, and consequently, hindering subsequent steel processing and application.

[0003] Currently, to address carbon segregation in cast strands, existing continuous casting machines typically employ strand stirring and end-stage electromagnetic stirring. Strand stirring primarily involves placing a stirring device beneath the mold or at a specific location within the continuous casting machine to agitate the flowing molten steel, ensuring a more uniform mixing of its components. End-stage electromagnetic stirring utilizes the principle of electromagnetic induction to stir the strands at the end of the continuous casting machine. The electromagnetic force promotes flow within the strands, thereby reducing component segregation. While these two stirring methods can improve carbon segregation and enhance strand performance to a certain extent, they still have limitations. Specifically, existing agitators used in cast strands (including strand stirring and end-stage stirring) generally have two stirring modes: continuous and alternating. While the continuous stirring mode provides continuous stirring of the molten steel, its stirring effect is often limited by factors such as the solidification process, making further optimization difficult. While the alternating stirring mode can vary the stirring rhythm to some extent, its relatively fixed stirring pattern may not accurately adapt to the stirring requirements at different stages of the complex and ever-changing continuous casting process, hindering further improvement in stirring effectiveness.

[0004] Therefore, how to accurately control the stirring process without changing the equipment of the continuous casting device to make the internal structure of the ingot more uniform, thereby effectively improving the carbon segregation of the ingot, is a technical problem that needs to be solved at present. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a current control method for a continuous casting billet stirrer. Compared with the existing technology, the present invention controls the electromagnetic stirring current to change into a periodic sinusoidal waveform, thereby improving the carbon segregation of the billet, reducing the extreme difference in carbon segregation of the billet, and making the internal composition of the billet more uniform, thereby improving the performance of the billet.

[0006] In order to achieve the purpose of the invention, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] The present invention provides a current control method for a continuous casting strand stirrer, the current control method comprising the following steps:

[0008] S1, before continuous casting electromagnetic stirring, setting the control parameters of the frequency conversion controller in the electromagnetic stirrer, wherein the control parameters include the target current value, the upper limit value of the current oscillation, the lower limit value of the current oscillation, the increase value of the current oscillation amplitude, and the deceleration value of the current oscillation amplitude;

[0009] S2, start the electromagnetic stirrer and increase the actual current to the target current value;

[0010] S3, after reaching the target current value, gradually increase the current at the set speed increase value until it reaches the current oscillation upper limit;

[0011] S4: After reaching the upper limit of the current oscillation, the current is gradually reduced at the set deceleration value until it reaches the lower limit of the current oscillation;

[0012] Repeat the operations of steps S3-S4 to make the current of the continuous casting electromagnetic stirring change into a periodic sinusoidal waveform until the continuous casting electromagnetic stirring is completed.

[0013] In the current control method provided by the present invention, the current is regularly increased or decreased to alternately oscillate, so that the current of the electromagnetic stirring casting changes in a periodic sinusoidal waveform, which can break the fixed mode of constant current in the traditional stirring mode, and use the periodic current change to generate a periodic electromagnetic stirring force, so as to promote the molten steel inside the ingot to produce a more uniform flow, thereby making the distribution of carbon elements and other components inside the ingot more uniform, effectively reducing the extreme difference of carbon segregation in the ingot, making the internal structure of the ingot more uniform, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the ingot, such as strength and toughness, and reducing the risk of defects such as cracks and fractures in the ingot during subsequent rolling, forging and other processing.

[0014] Preferably, the increasing value of the current oscillation amplitude is the increase in current per second.

[0015] Preferably, the increase rate value of the current oscillation amplitude is 2-4 A / s, for example, it can be 2A / s, 2.2A / s, 2.5A / s, 2.8A / s, 3A / s, 3.2A / s, 3.5A / s, 3.8A / s or 4A / s, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable.

[0016] Preferably, the deceleration value of the current oscillation amplitude is the reduction in current per second.

[0018] It is worth noting that the setting of the control parameters in the present invention is mainly based on two considerations: the cross-sectional area of ​​the ingot and the carbon content of the ingot. From the perspective of the cross-sectional area, a higher stirring force is usually required for a larger cross-sectional area to promote sufficient mixing of the entire ingot cross section; from the perspective of the carbon content of the ingot, the higher the carbon content, the greater the possibility of carbon segregation inside the ingot, and therefore a stronger stirring effect is required to improve the carbon distribution.
