Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of metallurgy, and particularly relates to a method, device and system for automatically heating molten bath of a medium-frequency induction furnace body. BACKGROUND

[0002] In casting production, the quality of castings has strict requirements on the content of molten iron, especially when adjusting the trace element composition in the molten state of molten iron, different chemical materials need to be put in relying on a specific molten iron temperature. The current industry generally adopts a manual operation mode. After the power supply is put into operation, the temperature of the molten iron needs to be measured manually at a high frequency. When the temperature is too high, the power is reduced, and when the temperature is too low, the power is increased. Not only is it time-consuming and labor-intensive, but it is also difficult to avoid large fluctuations in the temperature.

[0003] Large fluctuations in the temperature of the molten bath are not simply a process appearance problem, but can cause a series of chain effects. From the metallurgical aspect, carbides and graphite morphology in the molten iron are extremely sensitive to temperature. For example, the spheroidization rate of ductile cast iron may decrease by 15% when the temperature fluctuates by ±30℃, which directly leads to substandard mechanical properties. From the production quality aspect, when the temperature fluctuation exceeds ±50℃, the sand hole defect rate of automobile castings will increase from 3% to 12%, and the energy consumption of subsequent heat treatment will also increase. From the cost and efficiency aspect, frequent manual adjustment of power not only consumes a large amount of manpower and time, but also may cause power waste due to untimely adjustment, and even damage the continuity of production, forming a vicious cycle of material failure, composition out of control, equipment damage and cost soaring.

[0004] The existing manual control mode cannot meet the production requirements of high quality and high efficiency, and an automatic solution that can accurately control the temperature of the molten bath is needed to break through the limitations of the traditional mode. SUMMARY

[0064] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by the present application clearer, the present application will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and do not limit the present application.

[0065] When the embodiments of the present application refer to "first", "second" and the like ordinal numbers, it should be understood that they are merely used for differentiation unless they express the order according to the context.

[0066] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "connection" and "linking" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be fixed connection, or detachable connection, or integral connection; it can be mechanical connection, or electrical connection; it can be direct connection, or indirect connection through intermediate medium, or internal connection of two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0067] First embodiment

[0068] Please refer to Figure 1 The present embodiment provides an automatic heating method for a medium-frequency induction furnace body, comprising S11-S16, wherein:

[0069] S11: obtaining the standard process parameters of the current process, the standard process parameters including the target melting temperature.

[0070] In the present embodiment, the standard process parameters are input by the user through the human-machine interface (HMI), and the core parameter target melting temperature (T0) is determined according to the casting material quality and the molten iron composition requirement (such as the target temperature is set to 1520℃ when adjusting the composition of nodular cast iron). The system stores the parameter to the PLC controller as the reference for subsequent heating.

[0071] S12: obtaining the real-time state parameters, the real-time state parameters including the real-time weight in the furnace, the remaining molten iron quantity in the furnace and the real-time molten iron temperature, and the remaining molten iron weight is locked through the furnace body seating signal triggering.

[0072] As a preferred scheme but not a limitation, the real-time weight in the furnace of the present embodiment is collected in real time by the weight measuring instrument at the bottom of the furnace body. The weight measuring instrument outputs a DC4-20mA analog signal, which is converted to the actual weight value (unit: kg) by the PLC, and the tare weight of the furnace body is automatically subtracted (tare correction), and only the molten metal weight is retained.

[0073] The remaining molten iron quantity in the furnace is the "seating signal" triggered when the furnace is placed in position after tapping, and the system locks the weight of the molten iron in the furnace at this time (corrected by peeling) after a delay of 5 seconds, as the "remaining molten iron weight" (a fixed value until the next update after tapping).

[0074] The real-time molten iron temperature can be collected by a temperature measuring instrument inserted into the molten iron, which outputs a DC 4-20 mA analog signal, and the PLC converts it into a temperature value (unit: °C) with a sampling frequency of 1 time / second to ensure real-time performance. Alternatively, the real-time molten iron temperature can also be provided by a fixed wireless temperature measuring instrument, a handheld temperature measuring instrument, an HMI input temperature value, or through other device communication.

[0075] S13: Predict the heating power according to the standard process parameters and real-time state parameters.

[0076] Please refer to Figure 2 , S13 includes the following sub-steps S131-S132, wherein:

[0077] S131: Determine the melting quantity according to the real-time weight in the furnace and the remaining molten iron quantity in the furnace.

[0078] The melting quantity (M) = real-time weight in the furnace - remaining molten iron quantity in the furnace, representing the actual weight of the molten iron that needs to be heated at present (for example, if the real-time weight in the furnace is 4000 kg and the remaining molten iron is 1000 kg, then M = 3000 kg).

[0079] S132: Iteratively update the heating power according to the formula.

[0080] The formula is: E = U × (M / 1000) × [(T0-T) / 100)]

[0081] Wherein:

[0082] E is the heating power (unit: kWh);

[0083] U is the original unit of heating (unit: kWh / TON / 100℃, set according to the equipment specification book, such as U = 75 for a certain type of induction furnace);

[0084] T0 is the target melting temperature, and T is the real-time molten iron temperature (unit: °C);

[0085] The iteration update trigger condition is that when the weight change within 30 seconds is greater than 50 kg (such as adding cold charge) or the temperature change within 30 seconds is greater than 5℃, the E is automatically recalculated to ensure that it matches the real-time state.

[0086] The above steps S131-S132 solve the deviation problem caused by traditional manual estimation of electric quantity, and through weight / temperature change triggered iterative updating, the electric quantity prediction is dynamically matched with the real-time state of molten iron, and the risk of over-temperature or under-temperature is reduced.

[0087] S14: Based on the heating electric quantity, the induction furnace power supply frequency converter is controlled to perform the heating operation.

[0088] In some embodiments, as a preferred solution but not limited, the following checking steps need to be performed before S14:

[0089] Determine that the induction furnace power supply frequency converter is in the associated operating condition.

[0090] Wherein, the associated operating condition includes: the main on-off switch is on (the high-voltage power supply is connected), the associated auxiliary machines such as cooling fan / water pump are in normal operation, the load characteristics are stable (the molten iron weight matches the frequency converter power), there is no fault alarm signal (such as overvoltage, overcurrent), the user triggers the start operation instruction (button or HMI instruction).

[0091] After meeting the conditions, the PLC sends a control signal to the frequency converter, the frequency converter outputs according to the preset power, and the input electric quantity is accumulated in real time. The advance determination of the associated operating condition increases the safety check link, avoids the power waste and equipment damage caused by the equipment running with faults or load mismatch, and improves the system operation safety.

[0092] S15: Determine whether the heating operation is completed according to the input electric quantity.

[0093] In this embodiment, the determination method of the input electric quantity includes:

[0094] Single furnace single power supply: the electric quantity pulse number is collected through the multifunctional instrument, and according to the formula:

[0095] E i =N p ×K p

[0096] The input electric quantity is converted, wherein: N p is the pulse number of the electric meter, and K p is the pulse electric quantity coefficient.

[0097] Multi-furnace single power supply: the power value (kW) of each furnace frequency conversion cabinet is collected every 1 second, the power sum (kW·s) within 1 second is accumulated and converted into kWh (1kWh=3600kW·s) as the input electric quantity of the furnace.

[0098] The embodiment provides a method for determining input power when a power supply supplies power to multiple furnace bodies, solves the problem of inaccurate power allocation when multiple furnaces share a power supply, ensures accurate measurement of the power for heating of each furnace, and avoids temperature loss of control of part of the furnace body caused by uneven power distribution.

[0099] When the input power is greater than or equal to the predicted heating power (E), it is determined that the heating is completed.

[0100] S16: After determining that the heating operation is completed, the power supply frequency converter of the induction furnace is controlled to perform a holding operation.

[0101] The PLC controls the frequency converter to switch to low-power output (for example, 30% of the rated power), maintains the temperature of the molten iron, and provides a stable environment for composition adjustment.

[0102] The embodiment of the present application obtains standard process parameters of the current process, the standard process parameters including a target melting temperature; obtains real-time state parameters, the real-time state parameters including a real-time weight in the furnace, a remaining molten iron amount in the furnace and a real-time molten iron temperature, the remaining molten iron weight being locked by a furnace seating signal trigger; predicts a heating power based on the standard process parameters and the real-time state parameters; and controls a power supply frequency converter of the induction furnace to perform a heating operation based on the heating power. The embodiment of the present application automatically obtains standard process parameters and real-time state parameters, predicts a heating power and controls the frequency converter to run, replaces manual temperature measurement and power adjustment, reduces labor and time costs; at the same time, through accurate power prediction and automatic control, temperature fluctuations are avoided, the stability of the molten iron composition is ensured, the waste rate and energy waste caused by temperature fluctuations are reduced, the production continuity and stability are improved, and the core defects of low manual operation efficiency and large temperature fluctuations in the prior art are effectively solved.

[0103] Second embodiment

[0104] The embodiment refines the power control logic of the heating and holding stages based on the first embodiment:

[0105] As a preferred solution rather than a limitation, please refer to Figure 3 S24: The control of the power supply frequency converter of the induction furnace to perform a heating operation based on the heating power includes the following steps S241-S244, wherein:

[0106] S241: The initial power is determined according to the first formula.

[0107] The first formula: P0 = η × U × (M / 1000) × k;

[0108] Wherein:

[0109] η is the heat transfer efficiency coefficient (0.7-0.9, corrected according to the aging degree of the equipment);

[0110] k is the power margin coefficient (1.05-1.2, compensating for heat loss);

[0111] If U=75, M=3000kg, η=0.8, k=1.1, then P0=0.8×75×3×1.1=198kW.

[0112] S242: generating the power control curve.

[0113] Initial curve: running at initial power P0 during the initial heating period (T

[0114] Decay curve: when T≥T0-100℃, running at P(t)=P0×exp(-0.015 × t) (t is the decay time, unit: min), gradually reducing the power to avoid overheating.

[0115] S243: dynamically correcting the heating power according to the second formula.

[0116] Second formula: E'=E+σ·A·ε·(T 4 -T env 4 )·t;

[0117] Wherein:

[0118] σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant (5.67×10 -8 W / (m 2 ·K 4 ));

[0119] A is the effective heat dissipation area of the molten pool (calculated according to the furnace mouth diameter, for example, if the diameter is 1.5m, then A≈1.77m 2 );

[0120] ε is the emissivity of the molten iron surface (0.75-0.8);

[0121] T env is the ambient temperature (unit: K);

[0122] t is the cumulative heating time (unit: min).

[0123] S244: when E i ≥0.95E' or T≥T0, switch to the holding mode.

[0124] E i is the actual input power, and any condition is met to stop heating and enter the holding mode.

[0125] The above steps S241-S244 introduce initial power calculation, combine heat transfer efficiency coefficient and power margin coefficient, dynamically match initial power output with molten iron weight and equipment efficiency, avoid energy waste or insufficient heating caused by one-size-fits-all power setting; generate power control curve (initial curve + attenuation curve), reduce power through exponential attenuation function when approaching target temperature, effectively offset the thermal inertia of the intermediate frequency induction furnace, and solve the problem of easy over-temperature in the later stage of traditional heating. Based on the Stefan-Boltzmann law, the heat dissipation correction is introduced, the environmental temperature, molten pool heat dissipation and other factors are taken into account in the power prediction, the heating power is more in line with the actual heat loss, and the temperature fluctuation range is further reduced. Through the setting of E i ≥ 0.95E' or T≥T0, the double condition switching logic takes into account the cumulative power and real-time temperature, ensures more accurate heating endpoint judgment, and lays a stable foundation for the subsequent holding stage.

[0126] As a preferred solution rather than a limitation, please refer to Figure 4 S25: holding stage power control includes the following steps S251-S253, wherein:

[0127] S251: holding power P h = α·M.

[0128] α is the unit weight holding coefficient (0.008-0.012kW / kg, for example, if M=3000kg, then P h =24-36kW).

[0129] S252: when T h <T0-ΔT, increase the power to P h +ΔP;

[0130] S253: when T>T0+ΔT h , reduce the power to P h -ΔP.

[0131] ΔTh is the holding fluctuation threshold (5-8℃);

[0132] ΔP=K p ·e(t)+K i ·∫e(t)dt, e(t)=T-T0, where e(t)=T-T0 (temperature deviation), K p is the proportional gain (8-12), K i is the integral gain (0.2-0.5), which quickly eliminates the temperature deviation through PI adjustment.

[0133] The steps S251-S253 define the heat preservation power reference, so that the heat preservation power is directly related to the molten iron weight, the problems of "overheating of light weight molten iron and rapid cooling of heavy weight molten iron" caused by fixed power heat preservation are avoided, the PI regulation algorithm is introduced, the temperature deviation is quickly responded through proportional gain, the accumulated error is eliminated through integral gain, and the dynamic fine adjustment of the power in the heat preservation stage is realized, the temperature fluctuation in the heat preservation stage is controlled within ±5℃ through the setting of the temperature difference threshold to trigger the power adjustment, a stable temperature environment is provided for the molten iron composition adjustment (such as trace element deployment), and the unqualified rate of castings caused by temperature fluctuation is significantly reduced.
