TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of continuous steel casting, and particularly relates to a method for analyzing the water flow density and heat exchange coefficient of round billet spray cooling based on nozzle layout. BACKGROUND
[0002] Continuous casting is a short name of continuous steel casting, and its process is that under a continuous operation state, molten steel continuously transfers and releases heat, and gradually solidifies into a specific shape of a casting billet. Continuous steel casting has the advantages of few processes, short flow, high metal yield, low energy consumption and high automation degree.
[0003] Round billet continuous casting machine is a near-net shape continuous casting technology, and is mainly used for the production of seamless steel pipe billets. Since the round billets formed by direct casting are used for perforation rolling, the steel plant can significantly reduce energy consumption and improve metal yield.
[0004] Compared with slab or bloom, the round billet does not have the problem of corner and corner crack, but the complex heat exchange boundary conditions in the round billet continuous casting process still have an impact on the circumferential uniform cooling of the casting billet. Among various heat exchange boundary conditions, the crystallizer cooling heat exchange and the radiation heat exchange in the secondary cooling zone are generally considered to be conducive to the circumferential uniform cooling of the casting billet. Although the contact heat exchange of a single group of guide rollers belongs to a circumferential non-uniform heat exchange condition, the overall heat exchange effect of the guide rollers can be approximately regarded as uniform due to the alternate arrangement of the guide rollers in the drawing direction. The spray cooling of the nozzle is easy to cause uneven cooling due to the difference in the number of outer circle nozzles and the distance between the nozzle and the casting billet. If the casting billet is unevenly cooled, surface longitudinal cracks and ovality defects may be caused. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the influence of nozzle layout on the cooling of round billets for the fine study of heat exchange boundary conditions and the improvement of the quality of casting billets. In view of the problems in the related art, no effective solution has been proposed so far. SUMMARY

Finally, the spray heat transfer coefficient at each node on the billet's cylindrical surface is calculated using the water flow density, providing the boundary conditions for a refined three-dimensional temperature field mathematical model of the round billet.
