Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The embodiments disclosed herein relate to the field of iron and steel metallurgy technology, and specifically to a method, apparatus, electronic device, and computer-readable medium for determining the composition-mass ratio of alumina inclusions. Background Technology
[0002] Non-metallic inclusions exist as independent phases in steel, and their composition, size, density, and shape significantly influence the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of the steel. In aluminum-deoxidized steel, alumina inclusions tend to cause stress concentration and microcracks during processing, reducing the steel's plasticity, toughness, and fatigue resistance. However, spherical inclusions do not deform or break during steel processing.
[0003] Therefore, in the steelmaking process, calcium treatment is needed to modify irregular alumina inclusions into spherical liquid calcium aluminate inclusions. During this modification process, the composition and morphology of the alumina inclusions are related, making the study of these compositional and morphological changes significant. However, due to the large number of inclusions in steel and their tendency to collide, it is difficult to observe the changes in the composition and morphology of the alumina inclusions, as well as the progress of calcium treatment, posing many challenges to the modification of alumina inclusions. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The summary portion of this disclosure is intended to provide a brief overview of the concepts, which will be described in detail in the detailed description portion.

[0030] This disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0031] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating an application scenario of a method for determining the mass ratio of alumina inclusions according to some embodiments of this disclosure.
[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, in response to the detection of alumina inclusions during the smelting process of calcium-treated steel, server 101 can acquire smelting data 102, and then determine the shape factor 103 of the alumina inclusions based on the smelting data 102, and then determine the composition mass ratio 105 of the alumina inclusions based on the shape factor 103 and a predetermined composition mass ratio prediction formula 104.
[0033] It is understood that the method for determining the mass ratio of alumina inclusions can be executed by a terminal device or by server 101. The executing entity of the above method can also include a device formed by integrating the terminal device and server 101 through a network, or it can be executed by various software programs. The terminal device can be various electronic devices with information processing capabilities, including but not limited to smartphones, tablets, e-book readers, laptops, and desktop computers. The executing entity can also be server 101, software, etc. When the executing entity is software, it can be installed in the electronic devices listed above. It can be implemented as multiple software programs or software modules for example, to provide distributed services, or as a single software program or software module. No specific limitations are made here.
[0034] It should be understood that Figure 1 The number of servers shown is merely illustrative. Depending on implementation needs, any number of servers can be used.
[0035] Continue to refer to Figure 2 The flowchart 200 illustrates some embodiments of a method for determining the composition-mass ratio of alumina inclusions according to the present disclosure. This method for determining the composition-mass ratio of alumina inclusions includes the following steps:
[0036] Step 201: In response to the determination that alumina inclusions were detected during the smelting process of calcium-treated steel, smelting data is acquired.
[0037] In some embodiments, in response to the detection of alumina inclusions in the smelting process of calcium-treated steel (the smelting process generally refers to the calcium treatment process of molten steel), the subject performing the method for determining the composition mass ratio of alumina inclusions (e.g., Figure 1 The server shown can acquire smelting data via wired or wireless connection.
[0038] It should be noted that when the smelting process of the calcium-treated steel has not started or has started, the main component of the above-mentioned alumina inclusions is alumina (the proportion of alumina is 90% or more). When the smelting process of the calcium-treated steel starts, the alumina in the above-mentioned alumina inclusions reacts with the calcium in the calcium-treated steel to form calcium aluminate. The main component of the above-mentioned alumina inclusions will be transformed into calcium aluminate with a certain proportion of CaO / Al2O3 (i.e., it becomes calcium aluminate inclusions). For ease of understanding, in this application, alumina inclusions will still be used to characterize the above-mentioned inclusions (calcium aluminate inclusions).
[0039] It should be noted that the aforementioned wireless connection methods may include, but are not limited to, 3G / 4G connection, WiFi connection, Bluetooth connection, WiMAX connection, Zigbee connection, UWB (ultra wideband) connection, and other currently known or future wireless connection methods.
[0040] In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the smelting data includes: shape change data of the alumina inclusions and size change data of the alumina inclusions.
[0041] Step 202: Determine the shape factor of the alumina inclusions based on the smelting data.
[0042] In some embodiments, based on the smelting data obtained in step 201, the aforementioned execution entity (e.g.) Figure 1 The server shown can determine the shape factor of the alumina inclusions. Specifically, the shape factor is used to characterize the regularity of the overall shape of the alumina inclusions.
[0043] In some optional implementations of certain embodiments, the execution entity may determine the shape factor based on the shape change data, size change data, and the following formula:
[0044] Wherein, OR represents the shape factor of the alumina inclusion, with a value range of 0 to 1, AR represents the aspect ratio of the alumina inclusion, C represents the convexity of the alumina inclusion, and S represents the sphericity of the alumina inclusion.
[0045] Step 203: Determine the composition mass ratio of alumina inclusions based on the shape factor and a predetermined composition mass ratio prediction formula.
[0046] In some embodiments, the executing entity can determine the compositional mass ratio of the alumina inclusions based on the shape factor and a predetermined compositional mass ratio prediction formula. The compositional mass ratio typically refers to the mass ratio of calcium oxide to alumina in the alumina inclusions. Here, the compositional mass ratio prediction formula is generally used to characterize the correspondence between the shape factor and the compositional mass ratio.
[0047] As an example, the above-mentioned formula for predicting the component mass ratio can be a correspondence table pre-made by researchers based on a large number of sample shape factors and sample component mass ratios. The above-mentioned execution entity can determine the sample component mass ratio that is the same as or similar to the above-mentioned shape factor in the above-mentioned correspondence table, and determine the sample component mass ratio corresponding to the sample shape factor as the component mass ratio of the above-mentioned alumina inclusions.
[0048] In some optional implementations of certain embodiments, the execution entity can determine the component mass ratio based on the following component mass ratio prediction formula and the aforementioned shape factor:
[0049] (CaO / Al2O3)=2.119·OR-1.667(R 2 =0.99) where CaO / Al2O3 represents the mass ratio of calcium oxide to aluminum oxide in the above alumina inclusions, R 2 This indicates the linear correlation between the mass ratio of calcium oxide and alumina in alumina inclusions and the shape factor. A value closer to 1 indicates a stronger predictive ability of the mass ratio prediction formula. As the CaO / Al₂O₃ ratio within the inclusion particles increases, the overall regularity (OR) of the particles continuously increases. Furthermore, when the OR is less than 0.787, the alumina inclusions can be considered to be Al₂O₃; therefore, the OR can be controlled within the range of 0.787 to 1.
[0050] In some optional implementations of certain embodiments, the above-described component mass ratio prediction formula is obtained according to the following steps:
[0051] Sample experimental data on calcium modification of alumina inclusions in molten steel are obtained. The sample experimental data includes sample shape factors and the corresponding sample component mass ratios. The correspondence between the sample shape factors and the corresponding sample component mass ratios is fitted to obtain a prediction formula to be trained. The component mass ratio is determined based on the prediction formula to be trained and the sample shape factors. The component mass ratio is compared with the sample component mass ratios, and the loss value of the prediction formula is determined based on the comparison result. In response to the loss value satisfying a preset condition, the prediction formula to be trained is determined as the prediction formula for the component mass ratio.
[0052] In some optional implementations of certain embodiments, in response to the loss value not meeting the preset conditions, the execution entity may adjust the corresponding parameters in the prediction formula to be trained.
[0053] Specifically, sample experimental data can be obtained through the following steps, and the formula for predicting the component mass ratio can be determined based on the sample experimental data:
[0054] Step 1: Preparation of experimental materials
[0055] The specific smelting steps for calcium-treated steel are as follows: 1) Place 780g of electrolytic iron into a high-purity MgO crucible with an outer diameter of 80mm, an inner diameter of 60mm, and a height of 130mm, and heat it in a silicon-molybdenum resistance furnace at a speed of 5L·min. -1 The temperature was raised to 1873 K at a heating rate of 5 L / min throughout the experiment. -12) After heating to 1873K, hold for 20 minutes to ensure complete melting of the electrolytic iron. Then, add silicon-calcium alloy wrapped in iron sheet to the molten steel every 5 minutes, with the added amounts being 1.3g, 1.3g, 2.6g, and 2.6g respectively. 3) 20 minutes after adding the silicon-calcium alloy, take samples using a quartz glass tube and water cool them. After the operation, water cool the crucible samples. The calcium-treated steel after water cooling was used as the steel for high-temperature confocal microscopy experiments. Its main components were determined by ICP-OES and an oxygen-nitrogen analyzer with an accuracy of ±0.5ppm. Before conducting the high-temperature confocal microscopy experiment, the experimental steel needs to be processed into a cylinder with a diameter of 5 mm and a height of 3 mm. In this experiment, sandpaper of grades 300#, 600#, 800#, 1200#, and 2400# was used for progressive polishing. After cleaning, the sample was polished with polishing liquids of 7 μm and 0.5 μm. Finally, the sample was placed in a beaker containing alcohol and then placed in an ultrasonic cleaner for 5 minutes.
[0056] The selection of alumina inclusions involved replacing the inherent alumina inclusions in the steel with alumina particles. Triangular Al2O3 particles with the desired shape characteristics were selected from commercially available high-purity (99.9%) α-Al2O3. The particle size ranged from 50 to 350 μm, and the thickness error of particles of different sizes should not exceed 5 μm. Finally, the selected particles were characterized by X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy to ensure their composition.
[0057] Step 2: Modification Experiment
[0058] The method of this invention uses a high-temperature confocal microscope, model VL2000DX-SVF18SP, which can achieve rapid heating and cooling, with a maximum heating rate of up to 1000℃·min. -1 The maximum cooling rate can reach 1500℃·min -1 This allows for in-situ observation of experimental samples at high temperatures. Furthermore, temperature changes can be artificially controlled, which is beneficial for the melting of the steel sample surface.
[0059] Using a high-temperature confocal microscopy system, an experiment was designed to simulate the modification of calcium-modified alumina inclusions in molten steel. The changes in the shape and size of the target inclusions in the high-temperature molten steel during the modification process were observed in real time and continuously, and the start and end times of the modification could be accurately controlled.
[0060] Turn on all equipment of the high-temperature confocal microscope. After confirming that the high-temperature heating furnace is not in a vacuum state, open the furnace lid. Place the experimental steel and alumina particles into the alumina crucible according to the specific placement method, and place the alumina crucible horizontally on the platinum-rhodium thermocouple holder, as shown in the following manner. Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3This is a schematic diagram of the high-temperature confocal experimental setup and the placement of the alumina modification experiment in some embodiments of the method for determining the composition-mass ratio of alumina inclusions according to this disclosure.
[0061] Adjust the focus to achieve a clear image on the screen, then cover the furnace to ensure its airtightness. After evacuating the furnace chamber using a vacuum pump, continuously purge the chamber with ultrapure argon (99.999%) three times to prevent oxidation of the sample surface. During the argon purge, the valves must be adjusted slowly to prevent excessive airflow that could cause sample loss. In in-situ observation of inclusions at high temperatures, for confocal microscopy, only light emitted from points on the focal plane can pass through the exit pinhole. Light emitted from points outside the focal plane is defocused at the exit pinhole plane and most of it cannot pass through the central pinhole. Therefore, the observation target point on the focal plane appears bright, while non-observation points appear as a black background, increasing contrast and resulting in a clearer image. In the modification experiment, as the temperature rises to the experimental temperature, the steel sample surface melts. After the steel sample surface melts, due to surface tension, black shadows appear at the edges of the Al2O3 particles in the confocal image, affecting the judgment of particle shape. After the molten steel melts, the shape of inclusions cannot be clearly observed. This invention adds a CCD camera to the eyepiece to replace the confocal focusing device in existing equipment for recording, observing, and storing the modification process. Specific experimental parameters include: 5 megapixels; resolution of 2080*1552; and a frame rate of 50 FPS. All experimental processes are captured by a charge-coupled device (CCD) imaging system placed at the eyepiece, including the CCD camera and image analysis software. The digitized images are then read into the image analysis software. Changes in size and shape can be analyzed using the software. Only the particle projection on the horizontal plane needs to be captured; the contrast in each frame is used to distinguish alumina particles from the molten steel. In some cases, the image distinction between alumina particles and molten steel is not obvious; a clear boundary can be obtained by adjusting the image brightness and contrast.
[0062] Before starting the high-temperature confocal microscopy experiment, the Phase Diagram module in the FactSage thermodynamics software was used to calculate the melting point of the calcium-treated steel to be 1587℃. Therefore, for the first experiment, the temperature needed to be manually adjusted to the point where the surface of the molten steel melted, 100℃ below the melting point, to avoid heating too quickly and causing the steel sample to completely melt or the alumina inclusions to be lost from the surface of the molten steel. After completing the preliminary experimental steps, the temperature was set at 500 K·min. -1 The sample was heated to 1750 K at a rate of [missing value], and then at 50 K·min [missing value]. -1The temperature was increased to the experimental temperature of 1860 K at a certain rate. Upon reaching this temperature, the surface of the steel sample melted; this moment was recorded as the start time of Al2O3 particle modification. The sample was held at this temperature for a certain period to observe the modification behavior of the Al2O3 particles on the surface of the experimental steel sample. During the experiment, the argon gas flow rate needed to be reduced to 5-10 L / min. -1 To prevent excessive argon flow from causing alumina inclusions to drift away from the observation field, helium gas is introduced after the high-temperature confocal microscopy experiment to ensure rapid completion of the modification of the molten steel and inclusions. The cooling rate is 1200℃·min. -1 After modification, before sending the samples for electron microscopy analysis, they need to be stored in vials containing alcohol to prevent prolonged exposure to air, which could lead to oxidation of the experimental steel surface and the formation of numerous inclusions, affecting the normal observation of subsequent modification experiments. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, Figure 4 This is a schematic flowchart of an alumina modification experiment in some embodiments of the method for determining the mass ratio of alumina inclusions according to the present disclosure. Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the shape changes of triangular alumina particles with different initial areas during calcium treatment in some embodiments of the method for determining the composition-mass ratio of alumina inclusions according to this disclosure. Figure 5 During the calcium treatment process, the initial area was 7546.3 μm. 2 9895.9μm 2 16315.2μm 2 CCD images of the shape changes of triangular alumina particles were obtained, revealing that the irregular edges of the inclusions gradually smoothed out over time. Subsequent scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis of the inclusions at different time points was then performed. Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 In some embodiments of the method for determining the composition-mass ratio of alumina inclusions according to the present disclosure, the initial area is 7546.3 μm. 2 A schematic diagram showing the surface scan and average composition results of triangular alumina particles at different modification times.
[0063] Step 3: Image Processing
[0064] Shape factors, aspect ratio (AR), convexity (C), and sphericity (S), which are commonly used to characterize the irregularity of particle shape, are expressed by the following formulas: Figure 7 As shown, Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the aspect ratio (AR), convexity (C), and sphericity (S) of alumina inclusions in some embodiments of the method for determining the composition-mass ratio of alumina inclusions according to this disclosure. The aspect ratio (AR) is defined as the minimum Ferete diameter (D). minThe ratio between the maximum diameter and the maximum Ferrette diameter (D) max The Feret diameter of a particle is determined by the measured distance between parallel lines of the two boundaries of the particle profile. Convexity (C) represents the undulation and irregular complexity of the particle boundary curve, i.e., the particle area (S). A ) and the area of the convex hull of the particle (S) A +S B The ratio of sphericity (S) to the circumference (P) of an equivalent circle. eq ) and its actual perimeter (P r The aspect ratio, convexity, and sphericity are defined by 2D images in the method of this invention. Their measured values are between 0 and 1, and the closer the value of each parameter is to 1, the closer the shape of the particle is to a sphere. In order to improve accuracy, the method of this invention uses the overall regularity (OR) of the average values of the aspect ratio (AR), convexity (C), and sphericity (S) parameters to characterize the shape of the particle, expressed by formula (1) as follows:
[0065]
[0066] The images recorded by the CCD camera were processed, binarized, and the overall regularity of alumina inclusion particles at different modification times was measured using ImageView software. The results were plotted on [the graph / plotting table]. Figure 8 middle, Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the overall regularity of alumina inclusion particles at different modification times in some embodiments of the method for determining the composition-mass ratio of alumina inclusions according to this disclosure.
[0067] By introducing a shape factor to characterize the shape of inclusion particles, the relationship between the inclusion composition and the shape factor during the modification process is fitted, thereby enabling the prediction of the composition of alumina inclusions during the modification process using the shape factor.
[0068] Step 4: Building the Prediction Model
[0069] Linear fitting was performed using Origin to study the relationship between the composition and shape factor of alumina inclusions at different times, as follows: Figure 9 As shown, Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram showing the fitting results between the composition and overall regularity of alumina inclusions at different times in some embodiments of the method for determining the composition-mass ratio of alumina inclusions according to this disclosure. The fitting results show that the CaO / Al2O3 ratio of alumina inclusion particles and the overall regularity have a very good linear correlation (R0). 2 =0.99), as shown in Formula 2.
[0070] OR=0.787+0.472×(CaO / Al2O3) (R 2=0.99) (2)
[0071] As the ratio of calcium oxide to aluminum oxide (CaO / Al2O3) inside the inclusion particles increases, the overall regularity (OR) of the particles will continuously increase.
[0072] Step 5: Model Prediction
[0073] Formula 2 was used to predict the particle composition at different time points, and the results were compared with those obtained from experiments. Specific results are as follows: Figure 10 As shown, Figure 10 This is a schematic diagram comparing predicted results and experimental results in some embodiments of the method for determining the mass ratio of alumina inclusions according to this disclosure.
[0074] The results show that the predicted results obtained using this empirical formula are very close to the experimental measurements, proving that this empirical formula can be used to predict the compositional changes of inclusions during calcium treatment.
[0075] Simultaneously, using the Equilib database in the Factsage 7.1 thermodynamic software, the liquid fraction of calcium aluminate inclusions with different CaO / Al2O3 ratios at 1873 K was calculated, such as... Figure 11 As shown, Figure 11 This is a schematic diagram of the liquid fraction of calcium aluminate inclusions with different CaO / Al2O3 mass ratios at 1873 K in some embodiments of the method for determining the composition mass ratio of alumina inclusions according to the present disclosure.
[0076] The method predicts the composition of particles that begin to transform into fully spherical particles during the modification process. The prediction results are further validated using FactSage thermodynamic software, improving the accuracy of the method.
[0077] When the overall regularity of the inclusions is 1, that is, when the CaO / Al2O3 ratio of the inclusion particles is 0.451, the liquid fraction of the inclusions is 0.83. This further proves that the empirical formula between composition and overall regularity can be used to predict the composition of inclusions during the modification process through the overall regularity of the particles.
[0078] The purpose of calcium treatment is to transform irregular alumina into liquid spherical calcium aluminate, so it is crucial to determine the composition at which the transformation into liquid spherical inclusions begins. Using empirical formula (2), it can be seen that when the CaO / Al2O3 ratio of the inclusion particles is greater than 0.451, the calcium aluminate inclusions are ideal spherical inclusions.
[0079] This predictive method allows for the prediction of inclusion composition by calculating the shape factor of inclusions during the modification process, effectively improving the efficiency of calcium treatment and reducing experimental testing costs. Furthermore, it provides insights into the relationship between other shape-related properties and inclusion composition.
[0080] One embodiment of the above-described embodiments of this disclosure has the following beneficial effects: First, in response to the detection of alumina inclusions during the smelting process of calcium-treated steel, smelting data is acquired. Then, based on the obtained smelting data, the shape factor of the alumina inclusions is determined. Next, according to the shape factor and a predetermined composition-mass ratio prediction formula, the composition-mass ratio of the alumina inclusions is determined. This correlates the shape factor with the composition-mass ratio of the alumina inclusions, effectively improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the calcium treatment process, reducing the cost of experimental testing, and facilitating the modification of alumina inclusions into spherical inclusions. These inclusions do not deform or break during steel processing, thereby significantly improving the plasticity, toughness, and fatigue resistance of the steel products.

These device embodiments are similar to... Figure 2 Corresponding to the method embodiments shown, the device can be specifically applied to various electronic devices.

[0086] In some optional implementations of certain embodiments, the second determining unit is further configured to: determine the component mass ratio based on the following component mass ratio prediction formula and the above-mentioned shape factor:
[0087] (CaO / Al2O3)=2.119·OR-1.667(R 2 =0.99) where CaO / Al2O3 represents the mass ratio of calcium oxide to aluminum oxide in the above alumina inclusions, R 2 This indicates the degree of linear correlation between the mass ratio of calcium oxide and alumina in alumina inclusion particles and the shape factor.
[0088] In some optional implementations of certain embodiments, the above-mentioned composition mass ratio prediction formula is obtained according to the following steps: obtaining sample experimental data of calcium modification of alumina inclusions in molten steel, the sample experimental data including sample shape factors and sample composition mass ratios corresponding to the sample shape factors; fitting the correspondence between the sample composition mass ratios corresponding to the sample shape factors to obtain a prediction formula to be trained; determining the composition mass ratio based on the prediction formula to be trained and the sample shape factors; comparing the composition mass ratio with the sample composition mass ratio, and determining the loss value of the composition mass ratio prediction formula based on the comparison result; and determining the prediction formula to be trained as the composition mass ratio prediction formula in response to the loss value satisfying a preset condition.
[0089] In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the above-described apparatus further includes an adjustment unit configured to: adjust the corresponding parameters in the training prediction formula in response to the loss value not meeting a preset condition.
[0090] It is understandable that the units described in the device 1200 are related to the reference. Figure 2 The steps in the described method correspond to each other. Therefore, the operations, features, and beneficial effects described above for the method also apply to the device 1200 and the units contained therein, and will not be repeated here.
[0091] One embodiment of the above-described embodiments of this disclosure has the following beneficial effects: First, in response to the detection of alumina inclusions during the smelting process of calcium-treated steel, smelting data is acquired. Then, based on the obtained smelting data, the shape factor of the alumina inclusions is determined. Next, according to the shape factor and a predetermined composition-mass ratio prediction formula, the composition-mass ratio of the alumina inclusions is determined. This correlates the shape factor with the composition-mass ratio of the alumina inclusions, effectively improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the calcium treatment process, reducing the cost of experimental testing, and facilitating the modification of alumina inclusions into spherical inclusions. These inclusions do not deform or break during steel processing, thereby significantly improving the plasticity, toughness, and fatigue resistance of the steel products.
