Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of rolling technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, and equipment for predicting the temperature during the rapid cooling process of bar stock. Background Technology
[0002] Temperature is crucial in the hot rolling process. As one of the most important influencing factors in the plastic deformation and heat treatment of metals, temperature directly affects the deformation resistance of metals and the setting of key parameters in the rolling process, thereby affecting the bar rolling specifications, process parameters, and product performance and quality.
[0003] In the past, commonly used temperature measurement methods mostly employed on-site measurement and calculation methods based on traditional models. While on-site temperature measurement is convenient and quick, it is affected by many factors, which can easily lead to inaccurate temperature data. In some cases, it may even require obtaining the temperature through other rolling parameters. Furthermore, on-site temperature measurements are mostly surface temperatures, and the core temperature of the bar cannot be measured, resulting in inaccurate temperatures. Traditional model methods include empirical formulas and finite difference methods. Although these methods can be applied online and reduce experimental costs, the accuracy of temperature calculations still needs to be improved for hot rolling, which has a significant impact on temperature.

[0057] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the invention may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this invention will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art.
[0058] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for predicting the temperature during the rapid cooling process of a bar stock, the method comprising:
[0059] Step 11: Obtain at least one bar rolling information and the shape of the bar cross section after rolling;

[0063] Step 15: Based on the coordinate information, the heat transfer coefficient of the air-cooling stage, the heat transfer coefficient of the water-cooling stage, and the preset temperature prediction model, obtain the predicted temperature distribution of the rapid cooling process of the bar.
[0064] It should be noted that the bar rolling information may include rolling parameters of the rapid cooling process, specifically including but not limited to: air temperature, rapid cooling water temperature, air-cooling distance between water tanks, water flow rate, water pressure, and rolling speed; the bar rolling information may also include initial information of the rolled piece, specifically including but not limited to: steel grade of the rolled piece, carbon content of the rolled piece, manganese content of the rolled piece, width of the rolled piece, thickness of the rolled piece, and temperature of the rolled piece; the bar rolling information may also include unit grid division information, specifically including but not limited to: number of width units in the first region, number of thickness units in the first region, number of radial units in the second region, and number of radial units in the third region; the bar rolling information can be collected by sensors installed on the bar rolling equipment, and the bar rolling information can be selected and used according to the actual predicted temperature calculation requirements during the rapid cooling process of the bar;
[0065] It should be noted that when predicting the temperature of the rapid cooling process of the bar based on the finite element non-uniform mesh generation model, since the rolling dimension is much larger than the width and thickness dimensions during the rolling process, heat conduction in the rolling direction can be ignored.
[0066] In addition, such as Figure 2As shown, when constructing the finite element non-uniform mesh model corresponding to the shape of the bar cross section after rolling, since the boundary heat transfer conditions and geometry of the bar in the width and thickness directions are symmetrical, it is possible to construct only the finite element non-uniform mesh model corresponding to the shape of one-quarter of the bar rolling cross section.
[0067] In this embodiment of the invention, the bar rolling section is divided into regions based on the finite element non-uniform mesh generation model; then, the coordinate information of the nodes of at least one unit mesh on the divided bar rolling section is obtained; and based on the coordinate information, the heat transfer coefficient of the air cooling stage, the heat transfer coefficient of the water cooling stage, and the preset temperature prediction model, the predicted temperature corresponding to the node of the mesh unit on the bar rolling section is obtained; further, based on the predicted temperature corresponding to each node, the predicted temperature distribution of the bar during the entire rapid cooling process is obtained; the preset temperature prediction model can be constructed based on the coordinate information and the rolling information; thus, the core temperature of the bar can be measured during the rapid cooling process.
[0068] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, step 13 may include:
[0069] Step 131: Divide the preset finite element non-uniform mesh generation model into a first region, a second region, and a third region according to the preset number of regions.
[0070] Step 132: Obtain the number of width cell grids and the number of thickness cell grids in the first region;

[0075] The first region and the second region have the same number of width cell grids; the first region and the third region have the same number of thickness cell grids; and the second region and the third region have the same number of radial cell grids.
[0076] In this embodiment, the finite element non-uniform mesh generation model is divided into regions, and the node coordinate information in each region is calculated. This allows for the effective calculation of the temperature of the core of the bar in the first region and significantly improves the accuracy of temperature calculation.
[0077] It should be noted that the number of regions in the preset finite element non-uniform mesh generation model can be determined according to actual needs, including but not limited to three regions. In this scheme, it is preferred to divide it into three regions.
[0078] like Figure 3 As shown, in another optional embodiment of the present invention, the node coordinates of the first region can be calculated according to the following formula:
[0079] x = (i-1) × db;
[0080] y = (j-1) × dh;
[0081] Wherein, x is the x-axis node coordinate, i is the column number of the node, db is the cell grid width, y is the y-axis node coordinate, j is the row number of the node, and dh is the cell grid thickness;
[0082] The node coordinates of the second region can be calculated using the following formula:
[0083] If the node is on the left boundary, then x = 0;
[0084]
[0085] Wherein, x is the x-axis node coordinate, r0 is the grid width of the first region, dr0 is the length on the boundary line between the second region and the third region, j is the row number of the node, cos is the cosine, i is the column number of the node, dbθ is the cell grid angle of the second region, π is pi, y is the y-axis node coordinate, and sin is the sine.

[0092] The expression for the unit grid thickness dh is:
[0093] Wherein, r0 is the grid width of the first region, and n1 is the number of thickness unit grids in the first region;
[0094] The expression for the grid width r0 of the first region is:
[0095] Wherein, n is a proportionality coefficient, and r is a radius;
[0096] The expression for the length dr0 on the boundary line between the second region and the third region is:
[0097] Wherein, r0 is the grid width of the first region, and n3 is the number of radial cell grids;
[0098] The expression for the cell grid angle dbθ in the second region is:
[0099] Wherein, π is the mathematical constant pi, and n1 is the number of thickness unit grids in the first region;
[0100] The expression for the unit grid angle dhθ of the third region is:
[0101] Wherein, π is the mathematical constant pi, and n2 is the number of width-unit grids in the first region.
[0102] In another optional embodiment of the present invention, step 15 may include:
[0103] Step 151: Based on the heat transfer coefficient of the air cooling stage, the heat transfer coefficient of the water cooling stage, the coordinate information, and the preset temperature prediction model, obtain the temperature prediction linear equation set for the rapid cooling process of the bar.
[0104] Step 152: Based on the temperature prediction linear equation set, obtain the predicted temperature distribution of the rapid cooling process of the bar.
[0105] In this embodiment, the heat exchange stage in the rapid cooling process of the bar stock may include, but is not limited to, an air cooling stage and a water cooling stage. In the air cooling stage, the heat of the rolled bar stock is mainly dissipated through thermal radiation. During hot rolling of the bar stock, the temperature of the rolled bar stock is much higher than the ambient temperature in most stages of the entire production process, resulting in a large amount of heat radiation loss. Air cooling heat exchange is the main form of heat exchange in the rapid cooling process of the bar stock. In addition, the rolled bar stock can also exchange heat with the environment through thermal convection. The heat transfer coefficient between the rolled bar stock and natural air convection can be taken as 5 W / (m²). 2 ·K).
[0106] In another optional embodiment of the present invention, in step 151, the heat transfer coefficient of the air-cooling stage is calculated according to the following formula:
[0107]
[0108] Wherein, h r The heat transfer coefficient for the air-cooled stage is given by σ, where σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, σ = 5.67 × 10⁻⁶. -8 W / (m 2 ·K 4 ), where ε is the emissivity coefficient, and the relationship between the emissivity coefficient ε and temperature is: ε = 0.125 (T / 1000). 2 -0.38(T / 1000)+1.1, where T is the instantaneous temperature. ∞ This represents the extreme temperature value.
[0109] The first heat transfer coefficient of the water-cooling stage is calculated according to the following formula:
[0110]
[0111] Wherein, h1 is the first heat transfer coefficient of the water-cooling stage, and T d The boiling point of cooling water, T R The surface temperature of the bar, T f The temperature of the cooling water, T d T R and T f The units for all values are °C, D is the cooling water pipe diameter, is the rod diameter, the units for D and d are meters, is the thermal conductivity of water, and λ is... w The unit is W / (m 2 ·℃), where Re is the Reynolds number. It is a dimensionless number;
[0112] The second heat transfer coefficient of the water-cooling stage is calculated according to the following formula:
[0113] h2=(Nu·λ α ) / d;
[0114] Wherein, h2 is the second heat transfer coefficient of the water-cooling stage, i.e., the air convection heat transfer coefficient, with units of W / (m²). 2 ℃), where Nu is the Nusselt number, a dimensionless number, and λ α The thermal conductivity of air is expressed in W / (m²). 2 (℃), where d is the diameter of the bar, in meters.
[0115] In this embodiment, the water cooling stage may include: high-pressure water descaling, pre-cooling before finishing rolling, and post-finish rolling water spray cooling. Cooling water is sprayed from a nozzle under a certain pressure and exchanges heat with the rolled bar through convection, thereby reducing the temperature of the rolled bar. Relevant studies have shown that the value of the heat transfer coefficient is related to different temperatures and water flow densities. Therefore, the relationship between the heat transfer coefficient and the temperature range and water flow density range is as follows:
[0116] When t0 = 50℃ and 280 < w < 12600, the second heat transfer coefficient of the water-cooling stage is calculated based on h2 = 225.9w. 0.048 ×1.163 obtained;
[0117] When 200℃≤t0≤500℃ and 5≤w≤2000, the second heat transfer coefficient of the water-cooling stage is based on get;
[0118] When t0 ≥ 50℃ and 100 ≤ w ≤ 2000, the second heat transfer coefficient of the water-cooling stage is based on Obtained; wherein, t0 is the surface temperature of the rolled bar, and w is the water flow density, in L / (min·m 2 ).
[0119] In another optional embodiment of the present invention, step 151 may include:
[0120] Step 1511: Based on the heat transfer coefficient of the air-cooling stage, the heat transfer coefficient of the rolling stage, and the coordinate information, construct the differential equation of heat conduction according to the first law of thermodynamics;
[0121] Step 1512: Based on the variational principle of the heat conduction problem, calculate the first-order partial derivatives of the heat conduction differential equation and set them to zero to obtain the equivalent functional equation for each cell grid.
[0122] Step 1513: Assemble the discrete elements according to the heat conduction differential equation and the finite element combination method to obtain the preset temperature prediction model;
[0123] Step 1514: Express the temperature partial derivative with respect to time in the preset temperature prediction model as a two-point backward difference scheme;
[0124] Step 1515: Substitute the two-point backward difference scheme into the temperature prediction model to obtain the linear equations for temperature prediction of the rapid cooling process of the bar.
[0125] In this embodiment, a differential equation for heat conduction is established based on the first law of thermodynamics. Assuming that the material has isotropic thermal conductivity, the differential equation for heat conduction is:
[0126] Wherein, T is the instantaneous temperature in K, and ρ is the material density in kg / m³. 3 Where c is the specific heat of the material, in J / (kg·K), t is time, in seconds, and k is the thermal conductivity coefficient, in W / (m·K). Internal heat source intensity, unit: J / m 3 Where x is the coordinate of the x-axis node and y is the coordinate of the y-axis node;
[0127] Using the Euler equations under given boundary and initial conditions, and based on the variational principle of the heat conduction problem, the first-order partial derivatives of the equivalent functional equation of the element are calculated and set to zero, thus transforming the heat conduction problem into an extremum problem of the equivalent functional equation of the element.
[0128] The equivalent functional equation for each unit is expressed as:
[0129]
[0130] Wherein, the I (e) The energy functional for each cell grid, where S is the area of each cell grid, l is the edge length boundary value of each cell grid, h is the heat transfer coefficient, T is the instantaneous temperature of the rod, ρ is the density of the rod, c is the specific heat of the rod, t is time, and k is the thermal conductivity coefficient. The intensity of the internal heat source is given by x, where x is the coordinate of the x-axis node and y is the coordinate of the y-axis node.
[0131] It should be noted that the boundary conditions may include: a boundary S1 given a temperature value, T(x,y,z,t)=T0; (for t>0, on S1);
[0132] The initial condition can be: T(x,y,z,t=0)=T0(x,y,z) (within V);
[0133] Wherein, T is the instantaneous temperature, x is the x-axis node coordinate, y is the y-axis node coordinate, z is the z-axis node coordinate, t is time, T0 is the temperature distribution state at t=0, and V is the volume region;
[0134] Based on the variational principle of heat conduction problems, after taking the first-order partial derivatives of the equivalent functional expression of the element and setting them to zero, the equivalent functional equation for each element mesh is obtained as follows:
[0135]
[0136] The equivalent functional equation for each of the above cell grids can be transformed into the following form:
[0137]
[0138] in, The I (e) The energy for each cell grid, S is the area of each cell grid, l is the boundary value of the side length of each cell grid, and N is... i The shape function of node i, the N j Let be the shape function of node j, where subscripts i and j both represent node numbers. Based on the fundamental principles of the finite element method, the shape function of the element mesh can be calculated; T is the instantaneous temperature of the bar, ρ is the density of the bar, c is the specific heat of the bar, t is time, and k is the thermal conductivity coefficient. The internal heat source intensity is given by x, which is the x-axis node coordinate, y, which is the y-axis node coordinate, and z, which is the length of the node in the rolling direction. Since the preset finite element non-uniform mesh generation model only considers nodes in one-dimensional and two-dimensional directions, the value of coordinate z can be ignored in the specific calculation; V is the volume of the deformation zone.
[0139] Based on existing finite element combination methods and the temperature function of each element mesh, discrete element meshes can be assembled, and the stiffness matrices of the element meshes can be assembled into a global stiffness matrix to obtain the preset temperature prediction model, i.e.:
[0140]
[0141] Wherein, the [K T [ ] represents the overall temperature stiffness matrix, the [K3] is the overall temperature stiffness matrix. The {p} is a constant term. E represents the energy functional of the entire rolling section;
[0142] The temperature partial derivative with respect to time in the preset temperature prediction model is expressed as a two-point backward difference scheme, namely: Wherein, Δt is the time interval value during the rolling process;
[0143] Substituting the two-point backward difference scheme into the preset temperature prediction model, the linear equation system for temperature prediction is obtained, namely:
[0144] In another optional embodiment of the present invention, step 152 may include:
[0145] Step 1521: Solve the temperature prediction linear equations using the one-dimensional variable bandwidth storage method to obtain the temperature of each node in the first, second, and third regions on the cross-section of the bar.
[0146] Step 1522: Iterate the number of times the temperature of the node is calculated until the number of times the temperature of the node in the current processing stage is calculated reaches a preset number;
[0147] Step 1523: If the total time of the rapid cooling process has not been reached, continue to the next round of acquiring at least one bar rolling information and the shape of the bar cross-section after rolling; construct a finite element non-uniform mesh generation model corresponding to the shape of the bar cross-section after rolling; divide the finite element non-uniform mesh generation model into regions and acquire the coordinate information of at least one node in at least one region; based on the coordinate information, the bar rolling information and the preset temperature prediction model, obtain the predicted temperature distribution of the rapid cooling process of the bar until the total time of the rapid cooling process is reached.
[0148] In this embodiment, for each bar rolling stage, the temperature of the nodes on the rolling section is calculated once for each rolling of the bar until the rolling time of that rolling stage or the entire rolling process ends, thereby obtaining the predicted temperature distribution of the bar throughout the entire rolling process.

[0159] Step 41: Obtain rolling information and the shape of the bar rolling section; the rolling process is based on the fact that the rolling dimension is much larger than the width and thickness dimensions, so heat conduction in the rolling direction can be ignored; the heat transfer conditions and geometry at the boundary of the bar width and thickness are symmetrical, so a quarter section is considered;
[0160] Step 411: Collect control parameters, rolling section unit mesh generation information, and rolling information, as shown in Table 1;

[0163] Step 421: Divide the rolling section element mesh, establish the finite element model, and calculate the node coordinates;
[0164] Step 422: Determine the heat transfer coefficients for different rolling stages;
[0165] Step 43: Based on the coordinate information, the heat transfer coefficient of the air-cooling stage, the heat transfer coefficient of the water-cooling stage, and the preset temperature prediction model, obtain the predicted temperature distribution of the rapid cooling process of the bar.
[0166] Step 431: Construct a temperature prediction model based on the basic principles of finite element method, as well as node coordinate information and rolling information;
[0167] Step 432: Based on the temperature prediction model, form a set of linear equations for the finite element solution of the temperature field;
[0168] Step 433: Solve the linear equation system using the one-dimensional variable bandwidth storage method to obtain the predicted temperature value of the node;
[0169] Step 434: Determine whether the node temperature calculation in any rolling stage has ended; if the node temperature calculation in that rolling stage has not ended, increase the number of iterations and continue the calculation; otherwise, determine whether the temperature calculation of the nodes in the entire rolling process has ended; if the temperature calculation of the nodes in the entire rolling process has not ended, collect rolling information and perform node calculation for the next rolling stage; otherwise, stop the node temperature calculation.
