Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a converter automatic slag splashing control method, device, computer equipment and storage medium, belonging to the technical field of converter steelmaking. Background Art
[0002] The converter slag splashing technology utilizes steelmaking end-point slag with a saturated or supersaturated MgO content after tapping. Appropriate modifiers are added to adjust the slag viscosity and composition to an appropriate range. High-pressure nitrogen is then blown into the furnace via an oxygen lance to splash the slag, creating a coating of slag with a defined viscosity, refractoriness, and corrosion resistance. The slag cools and solidifies on the lining, forming a high-melting-point molten slag layer that protects the lining. This layer offers excellent corrosion resistance, inhibits oxidation and decarburization of the lining bricks, and mitigates erosion and erosion caused by high-temperature slag. This protects the lining bricks, reduces refractory wear, and reduces the consumption of gunning materials. It also reduces labor intensity, extends the service life of the lining, increases converter availability, and reduces production costs.
[0003] Optimizing the main process parameters of converter slag splashing and adopting a suitable oxygen lance nozzle structure will help improve the comprehensive level of slag splashing and protection: (1) Appropriate slag amount in the molten pool: According to the practice and effect of slag splashing, the slag amount is generally 100kg / t. (2) Slag properties: An important measure to reduce lining erosion is to increase the MgO content in the slag. When the MgO in the slag reaches saturation, the amount of MgO dissolved in the lining will decrease, thereby increasing the life of the lining. The MgO content in the slag is related to the slag basicity. Generally, the final slag basicity (%CaO / SiO2) is about 3, and the MgO content is 8% to 12%. The FeO content in the slag has a great influence on the lining erosion and slag splashing effect. The mineral composition of FeO in the slag is mostly various low-melting-point ferrites, with a melting point far lower than the tapping temperature. Moreover, the higher the FeO content, the more ferrites there are, the better the slag fluidity is, the greater the erosion effect on the lining is, and it is not easy to adhere to the lining. If the FeO content in the slag is too low, it will make it difficult to make slag and remove P and S in the converter. Therefore, the FeO content in the slag must be strictly controlled during operation; if the slag viscosity is high, the slag is thick and difficult to splash, and the adhesion to the furnace lining is poor; if the slag viscosity is low, the slag is thin, and the splash slag is easy to cover, but the covering layer is thin, and there will be slag hanging and falling, which requires adding slag material to adjust. (3) By adding slag conditioning agents, the slag is modified, the melting temperature is increased, and the bonding ability of the slag and the furnace lining is improved, thereby improving the dynamic conditions of the splash slag and the anti-corrosion ability of the splash slag layer. (4) Nitrogen pressure and flow, oxygen lance process parameters and oxygen lance position control, combined blown converter bottom blowing, slag splashing time, steel grade endpoint control target requirements, as well as each plant's process equipment, furnace charge results, technical operation level, management requirements, etc. all have a direct impact on the slag splashing furnace protection effect and need to be highly valued and comprehensively considered.
[0004] Slag splashing is a significant advancement in converter protection technology, significantly increasing converter lifespan and reducing refractory consumption. It demonstrates broad prospects for widespread adoption in my country. However, given the differences in process equipment, charge requirements, operational expertise, steel grade endpoint control targets, and management requirements across various enterprises, efficient and low-cost automated slag splashing technology is urgently needed. Therefore, this application proposes a method for automated converter slag splashing control. Summary of the Invention

[0076] like Figure 3 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a converter automatic slag splashing control device, comprising:
[0077] A database establishment module is used to collect relevant information of the current heat and historical heats and establish a historical heat database. The relevant information includes furnace entry condition information, slag auxiliary material information, oxygen consumption and end point information. The furnace entry condition information includes the composition, temperature and weight of the molten iron, and the type and weight of the scrap steel; the slag auxiliary material information includes the composition and addition amount of various slag auxiliary materials; the end point information includes the end point temperature, end point carbon content, end point molten pool level, end slag composition and the slag splashing furnace protection gun position control curve;
[0078] The database classification module is used to classify the historical furnace database according to the same or similar furnace entry conditions, slag-making auxiliary materials and end point conditions, and obtain the corresponding slag splashing furnace protection gun position control curve diagram;
[0079] The control curve fitting module is used to fit various slag splashing gun position control curves corresponding to each group of the same or similar furnace entry conditions, thereby forming a curve fitting database of various slag splashing gun position control curves corresponding to the same or similar furnace entry conditions;
[0080] The recommended curve acquisition module is used to obtain the recommended curve for slag splashing gun position control with the same or similar furnace entry conditions as the current heat in the curve fitting database based on the current heat condition information;

[0082] The recommended value acquisition module is used to obtain the recommended values of slag composition and weight for the same or similar charging conditions as the current heat in the optimal stepwise regression database based on the current heat condition information;
[0083] The material balance calculation module is used to calculate the composition and weight of the slag of this furnace according to the material balance based on the molten iron and scrap steel income items in the converter;
[0084] The predicted value calculation module is used to input the calculated values of the slag composition and weight of the current heat and the recommended values of the slag composition and weight of the same or similar furnace feeding conditions as the current heat into the recurrent neural network to obtain the predicted values of the slag composition and weight of the current heat;
[0085] The slag splashing pattern acquisition module is used to determine whether to discard part of the slag or add slag conditioning agents for modification based on the TSO measurement results at the blowing end point of this heat and the specific conditions of the heat. It also obtains the slag splashing pattern of this heat by combining the recommended slag splashing gun position control curve for the same or similar furnace feeding conditions as this heat.
[0086] The slag splashing operation module is used to perform automatic slag splashing operation using the slag splashing mode of this furnace.
[0087] like Figure 4 As shown, the specific process of performing automatic slag splashing control of a converter using the automatic slag splashing control device of the present invention is as follows.
[0088] Step 1: Collect relevant information about the current heat and historical heats to establish a historical heat database. This includes: furnace entry conditions such as molten iron composition, temperature, and weight; scrap type and weight; various slag-forming auxiliary material compositions and addition amounts; oxygen consumption; endpoint temperature, carbon content, molten pool level, final slag composition, and slag-splashing lance position control curves. The historical heat database is categorized based on similar or similar furnace entry conditions, slag-forming auxiliary material conditions, and endpoint conditions, generating corresponding slag-splashing lance position control curves for each condition.
[0089] Step 2: Fit various slag splashing gun position control curves corresponding to each group of identical or similar furnace entry conditions to form a library of fitting curves for various slag splashing gun position control curves corresponding to identical or similar furnace entry conditions.
[0090] Using MATLAB software, the corresponding slag-splashing gun position control height curve on the time axis of each furnace is fitted. The fitting function command is: H0= polyval(a,t), a=polyfit(tdata,Hdata,n), n represents the highest order of the polynomial, tdata, Hdata are the data to be fitted, and it is input in array form;
[0091] By fitting various slag splashing gun position control curves corresponding to the same or similar furnace feeding conditions in the database, the control accuracy of the slag splashing gun position at any moment on the time axis under these conditions is further improved.
[0092] Combined with the condition information of this heat, the recommended curve for slag splashing gun position control with the same or similar furnace feeding conditions as this heat is obtained in the fitting database.
[0093] Step 3: Based on the classification results in step 1, perform stepwise regression calculations on the various slag compositions and weights corresponding to the same or similar furnace feeding conditions, thereby obtaining a stepwise regression database of slag compositions and weights corresponding to various conditions.
[0094] Taking each group of identical or similar furnace conditions as the independent variable and the corresponding slag composition as the dependent variable, a stepwise regression is performed to obtain the optimal slag composition value database under that condition. Similarly, taking each group of identical or similar furnace conditions as the independent variable and the corresponding slag weight as the dependent variable, a stepwise regression is performed to obtain the optimal slag weight value database under that condition.
[0095] Combined with the condition information of this heat, the recommended values of slag composition and weight for the same or similar charging conditions as this heat are obtained in the stepwise regression optimal value database.
[0096] Step 4, material balance, calculates the equilibrium relationship between all materials added to and involved in the converter steelmaking process (such as molten iron, scrap, oxygen, coolant, slag, alloying additives, and corroded lining) and the products of the steelmaking process (such as molten steel, slag, furnace gases, and soot). Material balance calculates the amount of each substance generated and, based on the principle of conservation of mass, provides an understanding of the sources and destinations of materials in converter steelmaking. The material balance calculation uses the input items of molten iron, scrap, and other materials in the converter to derive the composition and weight (output item) of the slag for this heat.
[0097] Step 5: Use the "calculated values of slag composition and weight of this batch calculated according to material balance" and "recommended values of slag composition and weight of this batch with the same or similar furnace feeding conditions" as the input layer to perform recurrent neural network calculation, and the output layer obtains the "predicted values of slag composition and weight of this batch calculated by the recurrent neural network".
[0098] In step 6, based on the TSO measurement results at the end of blowing for this heat (including carbon content, temperature T, and bath level h), and the specific conditions of the heat (such as slag basicity, carbon content, and slag volume), a decision is made as to whether to partially discard the slag or add slag conditioning agents for modification. Finally, the recommended slag spraying gun position control curve for the same or similar furnace feeding conditions as this heat is combined with the "recommended slag spraying gun position control curve for the same or similar furnace feeding conditions as this heat" to determine the slag spraying pattern for this heat (including the slag spraying gun position control curve, slag spraying time, and slag conditioning agent dosage).
[0099] In the present invention, all theoretical calculation values, historical optimal values, recurrent neural network prediction values, gun position control recommended curves, blowing end point TSO measurement results and other information are all fed back to the relevant database for self-learning correction.
[0100] Specific calculation example 1:
[0101] Heat 1: Hot metal temperature at 1352°C, composition: C: 4.26%, Si: 0.56%, Mn: 0.32%, P: 0.081%, S: 0.032%. Scrap and hot metal charge: (181 + 50) tons. Slag and alloying materials: 26 kg / t lime, 7.1 kg / t dolomite, 7 kg / t ore. Oxygen consumption: 49 m³ / t. The blowing process was smooth, with no splashing or dry-out, and the finish line was achieved in one pass. According to the material balance, the slag basicity was calculated to be 3.2, 8.1% MgO, 16.5% FeO, and weighing 20.6 tons. Historical database recommendations for similar or similar charging conditions for this heat: 3.12, 7.9% MgO, 17.5% FeO, and weighing 19.9 tons. The predicted values calculated by the recurrent neural network are R: 3.16, MgO: 7.6%, FeO: 15.7%, and weight: 20.2t. The TSO results for the converter's secondary lance at the end of the converter are: [C]: 0.080%, T: 1636°C, and bath level h: 836mm. No slag dumping or slag adjustment is required. The recommended slag lance position control curve for the same or similar furnace entry conditions as this heat, as well as the slag lance position control curve derived from the model for this heat, are as follows: Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the slag test results are: slag basicity R: 3.17; MgO: 7.8%; FeO: 16.0%. It can be seen that the predicted values calculated by the recurrent neural network are closer to the actual test results.
[0102] Specific calculation example 2:
[0103] Heat 2: Hot metal temperature at 1376°C, composition: C: 4.30%, Si: 0.46%, Mn: 0.36%, P: 0.075%, S: 0.030%. Scrap and hot metal charge: (180 + 51) tons.
