Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the rolling process control technology of hot-rolled products in iron and steel metallurgy, and more specifically, to a steel grade design method for hot-rolled products based on a performance prediction model. Background Art

[0002] Hot-rolled products are one of the key strategic products of major iron and steel enterprises. Under the severe market situation, quality and cost are inevitably the core of competition in the same industry. Moreover, there are numerous personalized requirements from users of hot-rolled products. How to quickly respond when users put forward new requirements can not only reduce the R & D efficiency of new products, but also reflect the core technical competitiveness of the enterprise.

[0003] In all aspects of improving quality and reducing costs, making good use of production data and quickly finding a suitable optimization direction through analysis and modeling. Therefore, the research on performance prediction models and their applications has always been the focus of research by iron and steel enterprises and research institutions at home and abroad.

[0004] In existing patent applications, for example, Chinese Invention Patent Application No. 201110036223.X discloses a dynamic control method for the mechanical properties of hot-rolled strip steel based on a performance prediction model. This method uses a prediction model for the mechanical properties of hot-rolled strip steel to dynamically adjust the rolling process parameters of the strip steel, realizing the dynamic control of the mechanical properties of the strip steel and improving the qualification rate of hot-rolled products and the control accuracy of mechanical properties. Another example is Chinese Invention Patent Application No. 201210046441.6, which discloses a heating furnace energy-saving control method based on a strip steel mechanical property prediction model. This method uses a prediction model to reduce the furnace outlet temperature and reduce the gas consumption of the heating furnace, optimally controlling the process temperature of the strip steel when it leaves the furnace, and achieving a reduction in the gas consumption of the heating furnace / energy consumption per unit product. Another example is Chinese Invention Patent Application No.

[0005] CN 201410415017.3 discloses a finishing mill energy-saving control method based on mechanical property prediction and rolling energy consumption model. This method uses a prediction model to optimize the finishing mill rolling temperature and reduce the finishing mill rolling energy consumption. For example, the above patent focuses more on using a performance prediction model to achieve product quality management, monitoring process parameters using the model, and giving timely product quality risk warnings, so as to prevent losses and improve product quality. Another example is that Chinese invention patent application No. 200510011865.9 discloses a quality design method with extremely few new steel grade data samples. This method extracts no less than 50 production data close to the production process of the new steel grade from historical samples, combines them with the new steel grade test data samples to form a final sample, then establishes a new steel grade model through a weighted optimization method, and finally conducts quality design after establishing the new steel grade model according to the modeling objective function, effectively solving the problem that there are extremely few new steel grade test data samples and it is impossible to establish an effective model, and improving the accuracy of the new steel grade model and the reliability of the new steel grade design. This patent assists in the design of new products by combining historical production data. Its main function is to verify the reliability of the new steel grade design process through historical data and improve the test efficiency of new product design, but it does not intervene in the original design of the composition and process of the new steel grade in the user demand stage, thus improving the overall efficiency of the new steel grade design of new products.

[0109] According to the user requirements of the new steel grade, all the specified components (C, Si, Mn, P, S, Nb, Ti, V, Tal) of the new target steel grade are taken as optimization parameters, and the remaining components are not taken as optimization parameters; when the component parameters change, the corresponding rolling process also needs to be adjusted appropriately. Therefore, hot rolling processes such as the tapping temperature DT, rough rolling temperature RT, finish rolling temperature FT, and coiling temperature CT all need to be taken as optimization parameters; at the same time, different thicknesses will also affect the process design. Therefore, the exit thickness THICK also needs to be taken as an optimization parameter.

Among them, the maximum and minimum values of the components specified for the new steel grade are comprehensively given by taking the intersection of the composition ranges specified for the new steel grade and the composition range of the reference steel grade. The maximum and minimum values of the remaining component, process, specification, etc. optimization parameters are given according to the design values of the reference steel grade. According to the maximum values, minimum values, and calculation steps of the optimization parameters such as composition, hot rolling process, and thickness specification, divide into M groups of optimization combinations composed of different composition, hot rolling process, and thickness specification data. The maximum values, minimum values, steps, and optimization combinations of each optimization parameter are shown in Table 11 below.
