Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of metallurgical technology, and in particular to a method and apparatus for controlling the inverted taper of a continuous casting crystallizer. Background Technology

[0002] In a continuous casting machine, the copper plate of the crystallizer can freely change the size of the upper and lower openings of the crystallizer in the non-pouring state under the action of its back plate. However, in the pouring state, the ratio of the upper and lower openings of the crystallizer is fixed, that is, the inverted taper of the crystallizer remains unchanged.

[0003] However, due to abnormal operations such as starting pouring, stopping the machine, and reducing the pouring speed during continuous steel casting, the billet head and shell in the crystallizer are affected by continuous cooling and shrinkage under these abnormal operations. The solidification shrinkage of the billet (bill head or shell) formed under these abnormal operations is small in the crystallizer and after exiting the crystallizer. As a result, the billet formed is wider than the planned billet specifications, resulting in quality defects. Furthermore, due to differences in steel grade and crystallizer selection, the narrow face taper of the crystallizer is required to be larger. A large taper of the crystallizer results in a relatively small width of the crystallizer outlet and the crystallizer foot roll, which increases the external tension on the lower opening of the crystallizer or the foot roll. This leads to the loss of the crystallizer taper function and excessive accuracy deviation, resulting in the interruption of continuous pouring. Summary of the Invention

[0035] Combination Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a method for controlling the inverted taper of a continuous casting mold, the method comprising steps 101 to 103:

[0036] Step 101: Obtain the operating status of the continuous casting machine and the steel grade of the billet;

[0037] In this embodiment, a continuous casting machine is a device that continuously casts liquid metal into solid billets. The molten steel is initially solidified into a billet shell through a crystallizer, then further solidified in a secondary cooling zone, and finally pulled out and cut into fixed-length billets by a straightening machine.

[0038] The crystallizer is one of the core components of a continuous casting machine. Molten steel cools and solidifies within the crystallizer to form the initial shell of the billet. Crystallizers are typically made of copper or stainless steel plates and have an internal cooling water circulation system to accelerate the solidification rate of the molten steel. The taper value of the crystallizer refers to the ratio of the change in diameter (or side length) of the inner and outer surfaces along the height direction to the height itself, usually expressed as a percentage or angle. The taper design of the crystallizer is primarily to compensate for the shrinkage of the billet during solidification. As the billet solidifies within the crystallizer, it shrinks in volume due to the decrease in temperature. A proper taper ensures good contact between the billet and the crystallizer wall, which is beneficial for heat transfer and uniform shell growth. A narrow-face inverted taper of the crystallizer means that the upper opening of the crystallizer is larger than the lower opening; that is, the cross-sectional dimensions gradually decrease along the height direction of the crystallizer, and its taper is positive (if the lower opening is larger than the upper opening, it is a negative taper).

[0039] In this embodiment, the continuous casting machine's operating states include normal casting, start-up casting, shutdown and restart casting, and low-speed casting. Sensors are deployed at key equipment points of the continuous casting machine, such as billet speed sensors, crystallizer vibration parameter sensors, and ladle sliding gate opening sensors. The billet speed sensor monitors the billet pulling speed in real time, and combined with preset thresholds, it can determine whether the continuous casting machine is in normal casting (bill pulling speed is stable within ±5% of the set value), start-up casting (the initial stage where the billet pulling speed gradually increases from 0 to the set value), shutdown and restart casting (the transition stage where the billet pulling speed decreases from the operating state to 0 or starts from 0), or low-speed casting (the billet pulling speed is lower than 50%-80% of the normal set value, or the continuous casting machine's billet pulling speed is less than 1.2 m / s).

[0040] In this embodiment, after the steelmaking process is completed, the billet steel grade information is entered into the production management system and transmitted to the control system of the continuous casting machine via a data interface. Simultaneously, a spectrometer can be installed at the molten steel receiving position of the continuous casting machine to perform rapid compositional analysis of the molten steel entering the crystallizer, providing dual verification of the billet steel grade and ensuring information accuracy.

[0041] Step 102: Determine the narrow taper of the crystallizer face corresponding to the billet under different operating conditions based on the operating status of the continuous casting machine and the steel grade of the billet;

[0042] In this embodiment, differentiated taper control strategies can be formulated based on the solidification characteristics and billet growth patterns of different steel grades under various operating conditions.

[0043] For example, if the steel grade of the billet is peritectic steel, the carbon content is around 0.08-0.14%. Peritectic steel undergoes significant volume shrinkage during solidification and is sensitive to changes in taper.

[0044] Under normal casting conditions, the inverted taper of the narrow face of the crystallizer is set to 1.25%. During this stage, the billet production is stable, and the higher inverted taper can compensate for the solidification shrinkage of peritectic steel, ensure close contact between the crystallizer and the billet, promote uniform growth of the billet shell, and prevent premature formation of air gaps that would affect heat transfer efficiency.

[0045] During the initial pouring phase, the taper of the narrow face of the crystallizer is adjusted to 1%. In the early stages of pouring, the molten steel flow is unstable, and a lower taper can reduce the constraint of the crystallizer on the billet, thereby reducing the risk of surface defects on the billet caused by molten steel impact and uneven solidification.

[0046] In the shutdown and startup state, the taper of the narrow face of the crystallizer is set to 1.1%. During this stage, the billet's operating state changes drastically. An appropriate taper can ensure the stability of the billet when the speed changes, and also avoid increasing the billet pulling resistance due to excessive taper, which would affect the operation of the equipment.

[0047] During low-speed casting, the taper of the narrow face of the crystallizer is 1.15%. At low speeds, the billet spends a longer time in the crystallizer, necessitating taper adjustment to control the billet shell growth rate and prevent excessive shell thickness that could lead to difficulties in casting or a decline in surface quality.

[0048] In actual production, the billet may also be made of other steel grades. For example, the billet may be made of low carbon steel with a carbon content lower than that of peritectic steel (such as a carbon content of about 0.03-0.07%), or medium carbon steel with a carbon content higher than that of peritectic steel (such as a carbon content of about 0.14-0.25%).

[0049] To address the above situation, the narrow face taper of the crystallizer can be adjusted according to the carbon content of the steel grade, using peritectic steel as a benchmark. Specifically, if the carbon content is higher than that of peritectic steel, the narrow face taper of the crystallizer corresponding to each operating state should be appropriately increased; if the carbon content is lower than that of peritectic steel, the narrow face taper of the crystallizer corresponding to each operating state should be appropriately decreased.

[0050] Specifically, if the carbon content of the steel grade of the billet is greater than that of the peritectic steel, then when the continuous casting machine is in normal casting mode, the narrow face taper of the crystallizer is 1.3%; when the continuous casting machine is in start-up mode, the narrow face taper of the crystallizer is 1.1%; when the continuous casting machine is in stop-start mode, the narrow face taper of the crystallizer is 1.2%; and when the continuous casting machine is in low-speed casting mode, the narrow face taper of the crystallizer is 1.25%.

[0051] If the carbon content of the steel grade of the billet is less than that of the peritectic steel, then when the continuous casting machine is in normal casting mode, the narrow face taper of the crystallizer is 1.15%; when the continuous casting machine is in start-up mode, the narrow face taper of the crystallizer is 1%; when the continuous casting machine is in stop-start mode, the narrow face taper of the crystallizer is 1.05%; and when the continuous casting machine is in low-speed casting mode, the narrow face taper of the crystallizer is 1.1%.

[0052] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the minimum value of the inverted taper of the narrow face of the crystallizer is 1%, and it cannot be reduced further.

[0053] Step 103: Control the operation of the crystallizer in the continuous casting machine according to the inverted taper of the narrow face of the crystallizer.

[0054] In this embodiment, an electrically or hydraulically driven crystallizer narrow face adjustment mechanism can be used to precisely control the crystallizer based on the calculated inverted taper of the crystallizer narrow face.

[0055] The electric adjustment mechanism is equipped with a high-precision servo motor and ball screw transmission system, with a position control accuracy of ±0.05mm; the hydraulic adjustment mechanism adopts closed-loop control with electro-hydraulic servo valve and displacement sensor, with fast response speed, which can meet the needs of rapid adjustment in the continuous casting process.

[0056] Multiple high-precision displacement sensors are installed on the narrow copper plate of the crystallizer to monitor changes in the narrow face position in real time. The actual position of the narrow face is compared with the theoretical position corresponding to the inverted taper of the crystallizer's narrow face. The adjustment mechanism is automatically adjusted through a PID control algorithm to ensure that the inverted taper of the crystallizer's narrow face is always kept within the set value ±0.05% error range. When an abnormal deviation occurs, an alarm is immediately issued, and compensatory adjustment measures are automatically taken or the operator is prompted to intervene.

[0057] In summary, the continuous casting crystallizer taper control method provided in this specification involves acquiring the operating status of the continuous casting machine and the steel grade of the billet; determining the narrow face taper of the crystallizer corresponding to different operating states of the billet based on the operating status of the continuous casting machine and the steel grade of the billet; and controlling the operation of the crystallizer in the continuous casting machine based on the narrow face taper of the crystallizer. This reduces the occurrence of billet width defects and precision deviations that prevent continued casting due to abnormal operating conditions such as start-up, shutdown, and reduced casting speed during continuous steel casting. It improves billet quality, effectively reduces surface cracks and shrinkage cavities, and significantly improves internal quality. Simultaneously, it enhances production stability, reduces the incidence of production accidents such as steel leakage and adhesion, and reduces downtime for maintenance.

[0058] Based on the same inventive concept, combined with Figure 2As shown, this embodiment of the invention also provides a continuous casting crystallizer inverted taper control device, comprising:
