Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an integrated device and method for converter splash prediction control and temperature measurement, belonging to the technical field of steelmaking devices and methods. Background Art

[0002] Splashing is the most frequent accident in the converter smelting process. Splashing can cause foamy slag containing a large number of metal droplets to overflow from the furnace mouth, or even erupt explosively, which not only seriously affects the production stability of the converter, increases the consumption of steel and slag materials and heat loss, causes environmental pollution, and in severe cases endangers personal and equipment safety. According to statistics, scalding accidents caused by converter splashing account for more than 80% of scalding accidents in front of the furnace; the metal loss rate caused is 0.5% to 5%. When severe splashing occurs, the loss of metal materials can even reach more than 10%; it causes the loss of molten steel temperature and slag materials, affecting the dephosphorization and desulfurization effect of the converter. The temperature control of the converter is also crucial to the stability of smelting. If the furnace temperature is not well controlled, it will affect slag, affect the normal removal of C and P, reduce the end point hit rate, and also cause splashing. The online continuous detection of the converter temperature is an effective means to achieve stable and accurate control of the furnace temperature, thereby ensuring the efficient and smooth operation of the converter smelting. Since the converter is a high-temperature, high-pressure, multi-component and multi-phase reaction vessel, there are many reasons for splashing, which makes it quite difficult to predict and control splashing. It is also very difficult to conduct online continuous detection of furnace temperature under high temperature and high pressure. This makes suppressing converter splashing and online continuous detection of furnace temperature two key common technical problems in the steel industry.

[0003] Research on converter splash prediction control and furnace temperature monitoring has been ongoing at home and abroad. First, sonar slagging technology was introduced for splash prediction, but this technology has a high accuracy for slag return prediction and a low accuracy for splash prediction. Some companies and research institutes have conducted research on flue gas analysis technology prediction and control of splashing. Relevant literature proposes to use the curve change law of CO in the furnace gas composition to predict the occurrence of splashing; Patent CN113564296B proposes that when the real-time concentration of CO in the flue gas exceeds the preset safe concentration range, an early warning message indicating converter splashing is generated. However, after the actual application of these studies, it was found that due to reasons such as characteristic curve delay, it was impossible to achieve the characterization of the online slag state and the early warning of slag overflow and splashing. In addition, inspired by the experience of steelmaking by observing the furnace mouth flame with the human eye, domestic and foreign companies have also conducted research on furnace mouth flame image recognition and splash prediction. Patents CN110309973B, CN118064668A, CN117350973A, CN117496429A and Japanese JFE Company's patent CN113661257B all proposed methods for predicting converter splashing based on mouth flame recognition. Although there are many studies on mouth flame recognition and different recognition methods have been proposed, the machine cannot fully imitate and replace the human eye, and it is difficult to recognize subtle changes in splashing feature images and the prediction model requires high requirements. At present, this type of technology is limited to the experimental research stage and cannot be applied to actual production. For the monitoring of converter temperature, current research mainly focuses on the use of mathematical models to calculate the molten pool temperature. Relevant literature proposes to use the temperature model in the flue gas analysis technology to predict and monitor the molten pool temperature, but the flue gas analysis detects the composition of the gas in the flue outside the furnace, which is lagging and different from the actual situation in the furnace. Therefore, the temperature model established based on this is mostly an indirect prediction model. In addition, the influence of the instability of raw materials means that the molten pool temperature predicted by this technology is deviated from the actual situation. Although the auxiliary gun technology can detect the temperature of the converter molten pool, it only detects at a certain point in time and does not achieve continuous detection. There are few public and reported online continuous monitoring technologies for converter furnace temperature. Therefore, in order to effectively predict and control converter splashing and furnace temperature, ensure the safety of personnel and equipment, reduce environmental pollution, ensure efficient and smooth smelting, improve production efficiency, and improve economic and technical indicators, it is urgent to find an effective method to achieve splashing prediction and control, as well as online continuous detection of furnace temperature. Summary of the invention

By integrating a thermal imager and a spray gun and adopting a thermal imager to continuously detect the converter temperature online throughout the whole process, the occurrence of splashing can be accurately predicted and automatically suppressed, and the steelmaking process can be better guided. More early warning information can be provided to operators and control systems earlier, and operations can be optimized in time to ensure the safety of personnel and equipment, reduce environmental pollution, promote good slag and efficient dephosphorization, ensure efficient and smooth smelting, improve production efficiency, improve the technical and economic indicators of the converter, and effectively solve the above-mentioned problems existing in the background technology.

[0011] A converter splash prediction control and temperature measurement integrated method comprises the following steps: (1) Connect a thermal imager to the rear of the spray gun, and set a pneumatic ball valve between the spray gun and the thermal imager; (2) A visual hole is opened on the furnace wall on the converter trunnion side; (3) Insert the spray gun into the visible hole, set the medium rotary joint and the electrical rotary joint in the trunnion, connect the powder spraying pipeline, the pneumatic pipeline and the thermal imager signal line through the medium rotary joint and the electrical rotary joint, and connect them to the spray gun, the pneumatic ball valve and the thermal imager close to the furnace wall, so that the spray gun can rotate with the converter.

[0020] The pneumatic ball valve 10 , the pressure sensor 12 , the pressure reducing valve 13 and the electrical control system are installed outside the converter 16 .

[0021] The spray gun 2 is made of high-temperature resistant and long-life refractory material. A sealing cover is provided at the front of the spray gun 2 and a box is provided at the rear. A bent pipe is pre-buried on one side of the spray gun 2 and a straight pipe is pre-buried at the rear of the spray gun 2. A pneumatic ball valve 3 and the box are connected behind the straight pipe, and a thermal imager 4 is placed in the box at the rear of the spray gun 2.

[0022] The visible hole 1 is opened on the trunnion side of the converter 16, coaxial with the trunnion 9, and the distance from the furnace mouth meets the safety height. The visible hole 1 is inclined downward at an angle of 30-60 degrees.

[0025] A converter splash prediction control and temperature measurement integrated method comprises the following steps: (1) Connect a thermal imager to the rear of the spray gun, and set a pneumatic ball valve between the spray gun and the thermal imager; (2) A visual hole is opened on the furnace wall on the converter trunnion side; (3) Insert the spray gun into the visible hole, set the medium rotary joint and the electrical rotary joint in the trunnion, connect the powder spraying pipeline, the pneumatic pipeline and the thermal imager signal line through the medium rotary joint and the electrical rotary joint, and connect them to the spray gun, the pneumatic ball valve and the thermal imager close to the furnace wall, so that the spray gun can rotate with the converter.

[0026] In the step (2), a visual hole is opened on the converter trunnion side, coaxial with the trunnion and at a certain safety height Ha from the furnace mouth, and the visual hole is inclined downward by 30-60 degrees; the safety height must ensure that splashing tendency is detected and there is sufficient reaction time to suppress splashing. The calculation method of the safety height Ha is as follows: Ha=Hn×K Where: Hn—converter height; K—Safety factor, take 0.15-0.25.

[0027] In the step (3), after the converter is repaired and before the converter is opened, the spray gun is inserted into the viewing hole by 200-290 mm, and the front sealing cover of the spray gun covers the viewing hole to keep the thermal imager away from the high temperature area as much as possible.

[0028] In the step (4), when the converter starts blowing, a pneumatic ball valve 1 on the spray gun pipeline in front of the thermal imager is opened, and the temperature in the furnace is measured by the thermal imager. The thermal imager detection radiation constant is set to the radiation constant of the furnace gas. When slag appears in the visible hole area, the thermal imager detection shows that the temperature of the slag area exceeds the detection radiation constant, and the size of the slag area within the visible hole range is identified. When the slag area exceeds 1 / 2 to 2 / 3 of the visible hole area, splashing is about to occur.

[0029] In the step (5), while closing the pneumatic ball valve 1 in front of the thermal imager, the pneumatic ball valve 2 and the pressure reducing valve are opened, and 8.5-9.5 kg of high-pressure gas is used to allow the dolomite powder to enter the spray gun from the fluidized powder spray tank through the fluidized conveying pipeline and the elbow, and then be sprayed into the converter through the visible hole through the spray gun. The amount of dolomite powder sprayed is 0.45-0.55 kg / t steel. Example 1

[0030] On the converter trunnion side, a viewing hole is opened at a certain safety height from the furnace mouth, coaxial with the trunnion. The viewing hole is inclined downward at 60°. The converter height is 12.9m, and the safety factor K is 0.25. The safety height of the viewing hole from the furnace mouth is selected as Ha=Hn×K=12.9×0.25=3.2m. After the converter is repaired and before the furnace is opened, the spray gun is inserted into the viewing hole 200mm to keep the thermal imager away from the high temperature area as much as possible.

[0031] The steel grade smelted in a certain batch of converter is IF steel, and argon is used as the injection gas.

[0032] When the converter starts blowing, open the pneumatic ball valve 1 on the spray gun pipeline in front of the thermal imager, use the thermal imager to measure the temperature in the furnace, set the thermal imager detection radiation constant to the radiation constant of the furnace gas, and detect that the temperature of the high-temperature furnace gas is 1400℃ in the early stage of smelting. As the smelting progresses, the thermal imager detects that the furnace temperature in the visible hole area appears in the 1760℃ area. Since the radiation constant of the furnace gas is less than the radiation constant of the slag, it means that foamed slag appears in the visible hole area. At this time, the size of the slag area within the visible hole range is identified by the computer system, and it is found that the slag area exceeds 2 / 3 of the visible hole area, indicating that the slag in the furnace has been seriously foamed and has risen to the position of the visible hole, and splashing is about to occur; At this time, the electrical control system closes the pneumatic ball valve 1 in front of the thermal imager, opens the pneumatic ball valve 2 and the pressure reducing valve of the dolomite powder injection pipeline, starts the powder injection device, and uses 8.5 kg of high-pressure gas to spray dolomite powder into the converter through the visible hole through the spray gun. The injection amount is 0.45 kg / t steel. After the dolomite powder is blown into the furnace, the continuity of the slag foam is destroyed, the slag is thickened, and the degree of foaming of the slag is quickly reduced, thereby achieving the purpose of suppressing splashing. Example 2

[0033] On the converter trunnion side, a viewing hole is opened on the furnace wall at a certain safety height from the furnace mouth, coaxial with the trunnion. The viewing hole is inclined downward at 30°. The converter height is 12.9m, and the safety factor K is 0.15. The safety height of the viewing hole from the furnace mouth is selected as Ha=Hn×K=12.9×0.15=1.9m. After the converter is repaired and before the furnace is opened, the spray gun is inserted into the viewing hole 290mm to keep the thermal imager away from the high temperature area as much as possible.

[0034] The steel grade smelted in a certain batch of converter is pipeline steel X65M, and argon is used as the injection gas.

[0035] When the converter starts blowing, open the pneumatic ball valve 1 on the spray gun pipeline in front of the thermal imager, use the thermal imager to measure the temperature in the furnace, set the thermal imager detection radiation constant to the radiation constant of the furnace gas, and detect that the temperature of the high-temperature furnace gas is 1700℃ in the later stage of smelting. As the smelting progresses, the thermal imager detects that the furnace temperature in the visible hole area appears in the 1780℃ area. Since the radiation constant of the furnace gas is less than the radiation constant of the slag, it means that foamed slag appears in the visible hole area. At this time, the size of the slag area within the visible hole range is identified by the computer system, and it is found that the slag area exceeds 1 / 2 of the visible hole area, indicating that the slag in the furnace has been seriously foamed and has risen to the position of the visible hole, and splashing is about to occur; At this time, the electrical control system closes the pneumatic ball valve in front of the thermal imager, opens the pneumatic ball valve and pressure reducing valve of the dolomite powder injection pipeline, starts the powder injection device, and uses 9.5 kg of high-pressure gas to spray dolomite powder into the converter through the visible hole through the spray gun. The injection amount is 0.55 kg / t steel. After the dolomite powder is blown into the furnace, it destroys the continuity of the slag foam, thickens the slag, and then quickly reduces the degree of foaming of the slag, thereby achieving the purpose of suppressing splashing.

The integrated method for converter splash prediction control and temperature measurement according to claim 6, characterized in that: In the step (3), after the converter is repaired and before the converter is opened, the spray gun is inserted into the viewing hole by 200-290 mm, and the front sealing cover of the spray gun covers the viewing hole to keep the thermal imager away from the high temperature area as much as possible.

9. The integrated method for converter splash prediction control and temperature measurement according to claim 6, characterized in that: In the step (4), when the converter starts blowing, a pneumatic ball valve 1 on the spray gun pipeline in front of the thermal imager is opened, and the temperature in the furnace is measured by the thermal imager. The thermal imager detection radiation constant is set to the radiation constant of the furnace gas. When slag appears in the visible hole area, the thermal imager detection shows that the temperature of the slag area exceeds the detection radiation constant, and the size of the slag area within the visible hole range is identified. When the slag area exceeds 1 / 2 to 2 / 3 of the visible hole area, splashing is about to occur.

10. The integrated method for converter splash prediction control and temperature measurement according to claim 6, characterized in that: In the step (5), while closing the pneumatic ball valve 1 in front of the thermal imager, the pneumatic ball valve 2 and the pressure reducing valve are opened, and 8.5-9.5 kg of high-pressure gas is used to allow the dolomite powder to enter the spray gun from the fluidized powder spray tank through the fluidized conveying pipeline and the elbow, and then be sprayed into the converter through the visible hole through the spray gun. The amount of dolomite powder sprayed is 0.45-0.55 kg / t steel.
