Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of rolling mill cooling technology, and in particular to a cooling water volume control method, device, medium, and electronic equipment. Background Technology

[0002] The main production mode of the thin slab endless rolling production line is the endless mode. After casting, the production mode is usually switched from the endless mode to the single-slab mode to produce 2-3 single slabs. On the one hand, the rolls accumulate too much thermal expansion during the endless mode production process. On the other hand, after the endless mode production is completed, in order to save energy, the cooling water volume of the rolls is reduced from the set water volume to the first no-load water volume. In order to ensure the stability of the strip threading during single-slab production, the cooling water volume of the rolls is increased to the set water volume after each stand has finished threading. That is, each stand cools the rolls according to the no-load water volume during the target time period, which is the time period between the steel throwing time in the endless mode and the steel biting time in the single-slab mode. During this process, the rolls are not sufficiently cooled, which is not conducive to controlling the shape of the single slab. On the other hand, the single slab production specifications are relatively thick, and the rolling force required during the rolling process is small. The rolls have insufficient deflection, which makes it difficult to control the crown during the single slab production process, and even negative crown phenomenon occurs, which seriously affects product quality and production stability. Summary of the Invention

For example, some operations / steps can be broken down, while others can be combined or partially combined; therefore, the actual execution order may change depending on the actual situation.

[0052] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, unless otherwise stated, "multiple" means two or more.

[0053] To better understand the embodiments of this application, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a headless rolling mill production line is shown. Figure 2 A schematic diagram showing the control of cooling water volume for each rack is provided. Figure 1 In the diagram, 1 represents a thin slab casting machine, 2 a tunnel furnace, 3 a roughing mill, and 4 a finishing mill. (See also...) Figure 1 The following is a description of the headless rolling production line:

[0054] The endless rolling production line includes a thin slab casting machine 1, a tunnel furnace 2, a roughing mill 3, and a finishing mill 4 arranged sequentially in the slab running direction. The roughing mill 2 includes three roughing mills (H0, H1, and H2) arranged sequentially in the slab running direction, i.e., three roughing mills arranged from left to right. The finishing mill 4 includes five finishing mills (F1, F2, F3, F4, and F5) arranged sequentially in the slab running direction, i.e., five roughing mills arranged from left to right. Each roughing mill and each finishing mill is a stand. For any stand, when the endless steel ejection signal is received, the cooling water flow rate is reduced from the set water flow rate in the endless mode to the no-load water flow rate. When the single-piece bite signal is received, the cooling water flow rate is increased from the no-load water flow rate to the set water flow rate. The water flow rate in the cold zone during the steel tapping gap after the endless mode ends is relatively small, and the gap time is not used to fully cool the rolls, making subsequent single-piece shape control extremely difficult.

[0055] Figure 3 A flowchart of a cooling water volume control method according to an embodiment of this application is shown. See also: Figure 3A cooling water volume control method is provided, applied to an endless rolling production line. The endless rolling production line can be a multi-mode continuous casting & rolling plant (MCCR). The endless rolling production line includes a roughing mill and a finishing mill arranged sequentially in the slab running direction. The roughing mill includes at least two roughing mills arranged sequentially in the slab running direction, and the finishing mill includes at least two finishing mills arranged sequentially in the slab running direction. The method includes at least steps S1 to S4, detailed below:

[0056] In step S1, if the previous slab is in the headless mode and the current slab is in the single-block mode, then the first cooling water volume of each finishing mill in the headless mode is obtained.

[0057] For example, the previous slab is the Nth slab, and the current slab is the (N+1)th slab, where N is a positive integer.

[0058] It should be noted that "the previous slab is in the headless mode" indicates that the headless rolling production line uses the headless mode to produce the previous slab, and "the current slab is in the single-piece mode" indicates that the headless rolling production line uses the single-piece mode to produce the current slab. "The previous slab is in the headless mode and the current slab is in the single-piece mode" can be understood as the previous slab being the last slab in the headless mode and the current slab being the first slab in the single-piece mode. The first cooling water volume is the cooling water volume of the finishing mill when rolling the slab in the headless mode.

[0059] In some implementations, the automated Level 2 (L2) system determines the current slab and the previous slab. If the previous slab is the last one in the headless mode, the current slab is in the single-slab production mode. The roll cooling water function switches to a new control function and adopts a special cooling water mode, i.e., steps S2 to S4 are executed. In other cases, the roll cooling water function is in the normal cooling mode.

[0060] In step S2, for each roughing mill, the current distance between the roughing mill and the finishing mill group is determined. The current distance can be the distance between the roughing mill and the finishing mill group in the slab running direction.

[0061] For example, see Figure 2 The slab runs in the left-right direction, and the current distance is the distance between the roughing mill and the finishing mill in the left-right direction.

[0062] In step S3, the roughing mill with the smallest current distance is selected as the target roughing mill. The target roughing mill can be understood as the roughing mill at the exit of the roughing mill group, that is, the roughing mill closest to the finishing mill group.

[0063] For example, see Figure 2 The current distance is the largest for roughing mill H0, followed by roughing mill H1, and the smallest for roughing mill H2. The target roughing mill is H2.

[0064] In step S4, for each finishing mill, in response to the bite signal of the target roughing mill on the current slab, the first no-load water volume of the finishing mill is obtained, and the cooling water volume of the finishing mill is reduced from the first cooling water volume to the first no-load water volume. In response to the bite signal of the finishing mill on the current slab, the second cooling water volume of the finishing mill in the single-slab mode is obtained, and the cooling water volume of the finishing mill is increased from the first no-load water volume to the second cooling water volume.

[0065] In some implementations, the first cooling water volume is equal to the second cooling water volume.

[0066] In some implementations, the Level 1 Automation (L1) system executes steps S2 to S4, that is, if it is confirmed that a special cooling water mode is adopted, the Level 1 Automation (L1) system executes the control logic according to steps S2 to S4.

[0067] In this application, when the finishing mill receives a headless steel throwing signal (the finishing mill's steel throwing signal to the previous slab), the finishing mill maintains the first cooling water volume unchanged, instead of reducing it to the first no-load water volume. When the target roughing mill receives a single-slab bite signal (the finishing mill's bite signal to the current slab), the finishing mill reduces the cooling water volume from the first cooling water volume to the first no-load water volume. In a first time period, the finishing mill's cooling water volume is increased from the prior art no-load water volume (equivalent to the first no-load water volume of this application) to the first cooling water volume. By extending the time the finishing mill maintains a higher cooling water volume and reducing the time it maintains a lower cooling water volume, the cooling water volume is increased, which fully cools the finishing mill's rolls and facilitates control of the single slab shape. The first time period is the time period between receiving the finishing mill's headless steel throwing signal to the previous slab and receiving the target roughing mill's bite signal to the current slab. The single slab is a slab in single-slab operation mode, such as the current slab.

[0068] It should be noted that during the first time period, the cooling water volume of the finishing mill is the first cooling water volume, which can be understood as the same as the intermittent water volume and the setting during the headless mode, thereby minimizing the thermal expansion of the finishing mill rolls and significantly improving the strip crown control capability.

[0069] Figure 4 This application shows a schematic diagram of the control of the cooling water volume of the finishing mill in an embodiment of the present application. For example, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 4 Upon receiving the headless steel ejection signal from both the roughing mill H2 and the finishing mill F1, the cooling water volume of the finishing mill F1 remains at the first cooling water volume (the set water volume to the left of the no-load water volume L1). Upon receiving the steel bite signal from the roughing mill H2 on the current slab (single steel bite on the left), the cooling water volume of the finishing mill F1 decreases from the first cooling water volume to the first no-load water volume. Figure 4 When the idle water volume L1 in the mill receives a bite signal from the finishing mill F1 on the current slab (single slab bite on the right side), the cooling water volume of the finishing mill F1 increases from the first idle water volume to the second cooling water volume.

[0070] In some embodiments, increasing the cooling water volume of the finishing mill from the first no-load water volume to the second cooling water volume includes: obtaining the first operating speed of the current slab; determining a first water volume increase rate based on the first operating speed, wherein the first water volume increase rate is positively correlated with the first operating speed; and increasing the cooling water volume of the finishing mill to the second cooling water volume according to the first water volume increase rate.

[0071] In some implementations, the first operating speed is the operating speed at a first target time, which is the time when the bite signal of the finishing mill on the current slab is received.

[0072] In this application, the faster the first operating speed, the less cooling water is used for the rolls of the finishing mill per unit time. Therefore, a faster first water volume increase rate is required so that the cooling water volume of the finishing mill can be increased to the second cooling water volume as soon as possible to fully cool the rolls of the finishing mill.

[0073] In some embodiments, obtaining the first cooling water volume of the finishing mill in the endless mode includes: obtaining a first rolling model of the endless mode, the first rolling model representing the rolling conditions of the endless rolling production line in the endless mode; and determining the first cooling water volume based on the first rolling model.

[0074] It should be noted that the first rolling model is a finite element three-dimensional dynamic rolling model established based on the various process parameters of the rolling process collected at the production site when the headless rolling production line is in headless mode. The material properties, contact friction characteristics, and relative motion characteristics between the rolling mill pass and the billet are considered respectively. The influence of the billet unit mesh division rules on the rolling results is discussed and optimized in a reasonable manner, resulting in a three-dimensional dynamic simulation model that is more in line with the rolling conditions.

[0075] In some embodiments, obtaining the second cooling water volume of the finishing mill in the single-block mode includes: obtaining a second rolling model of the single-block mode, the second rolling model representing the rolling conditions of the headless rolling production line in the single-block mode; and determining the second cooling water volume based on the second rolling model.

[0076] It should be noted that the second rolling model is a finite element three-dimensional dynamic rolling model established based on the various process parameters of the rolling process collected at the production site when the headless rolling production line is in single-block production mode. The material properties, contact friction characteristics, and relative motion characteristics between the rolling mill pass and the billet are considered respectively. The influence of the billet unit mesh division rules on the rolling results is discussed and optimized in a reasonable manner, resulting in a three-dimensional dynamic simulation model that is more in line with the rolling conditions.

[0077] In some embodiments, obtaining the first no-load water volume of the finishing mill includes: obtaining a water volume coefficient, wherein the water volume coefficient is less than 1; and weighting the first cooling water volume based on the water volume coefficient to obtain the first no-load water volume. The water volume coefficient may be 0.7.

[0078] In some embodiments, after the previous slab is in the headless mode and the current slab is in the single-piece mode, the method further includes: obtaining a third cooling water volume for each of the roughing mills in the headless mode; for each of the roughing mills, in response to a steel-throwing signal from the roughing mill to the previous slab, obtaining a second no-load water volume for the roughing mill, reducing the cooling water volume of the roughing mill from the third cooling water volume to the second no-load water volume; and in response to a steel-biting signal from the roughing mill to the current slab, obtaining a fourth cooling water volume for the roughing mill in the single-piece mode, increasing the cooling water volume of the roughing mill from the second no-load water volume to the fourth cooling water volume.

[0079] In some embodiments, the third cooling water volume is equal to the fourth cooling water volume.

[0080] It should be noted that the roughing mill has a relatively small impact on the shape of the single billet, and the existing cooling method is maintained without increasing the cooling water volume in order to save energy. In contrast, the finishing mill has a relatively large impact on the shape of the single billet, and it is necessary to increase the cooling water volume to reduce the thermal expansion of the rolls and facilitate the control of the shape of the single billet. This achieves both efficient use of energy and convenient control of the shape of the single billet.

[0081] In some embodiments, increasing the cooling water volume of the roughing mill from the second no-load water volume to the fourth cooling water volume includes: obtaining the second operating speed of the current slab; determining a second water volume increase rate based on the second operating speed, wherein the second water volume increase rate is positively correlated with the second operating speed; and increasing the cooling water volume of the roughing mill to the fourth cooling water volume according to the second water volume increase rate.

[0082] In some embodiments, the second operating speed is the operating speed at a second target time, which is the time when the biting signal of the roughing mill to the current slab is received.

[0083] In this application, the faster the second operating speed, the less cooling water is used for the rolls of the roughing mill per unit time. Therefore, a faster second water volume increase rate is required so that the cooling water volume of the roughing mill can be increased to the fourth cooling water volume as soon as possible to fully cool the rolls of the roughing mill.

[0084] This application can be applied to the production of thin slab multi-mode production lines (multi-mode fully continuous casting and rolling production lines), improve the single-slab (single billet) shape control capability after mode switching (from headless mode to single-slab mode) during long roll period, reduce the occurrence of plate outline warping defects, help the production line reduce plate shape scrap, reduce costs and increase efficiency, and is also applicable to strip steel shape control in similar production lines.

[0085] In this application, during the time period between the roughing mill receiving the bite signal and the finishing mill receiving the bite signal, the finishing mill cools the rolls with an empty water volume (first empty water volume). During other time periods, the rolls are cooled with a set water volume (first cooling water volume or second cooling water volume). The time period during which the finishing mill cools the rolls with an empty water volume is shorter than the target time period in the prior art, and the duration of cooling the rolls with a set water volume is longer than the duration in the prior art. By extending the duration of high cooling water volume and shortening the duration of low cooling water volume, the cooling water volume is increased, and the rolls are fully cooled, which is beneficial for controlling the shape of the single billet.

[0086] According to a second aspect of this application, a cooling water volume control device 100 is provided, applied to an endless rolling production line, the endless rolling production line including a roughing mill and a finishing mill arranged sequentially in the slab running direction, the roughing mill including at least two roughing mills arranged sequentially in the slab running direction, the finishing mill including at least two finishing mills arranged sequentially in the slab running direction, the device comprising:

[0087] The first acquisition unit 101 acquires the first cooling water volume of each finishing mill in the headless mode if the previous slab is in the headless mode and the current slab is in the single block mode.

[0088] The first determining unit 102 determines the current distance between each roughing mill and the finishing mill group.

[0089] The first unit 103 designates the roughing mill with the smallest current distance as the target roughing mill;

[0090] The first water volume control unit 104, for each of the finishing mills, in response to the bite signal of the target roughing mill on the current slab, acquires the first no-load water volume of the finishing mill and reduces the cooling water volume of the finishing mill from the first cooling water volume to the first no-load water volume. In response to the bite signal of the finishing mill on the current slab, it acquires the second cooling water volume of the finishing mill in the single-slab mode and increases the cooling water volume of the finishing mill from the first no-load water volume to the second cooling water volume.
