[0025] The following embodiments of the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention and are therefore only examples and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention provides an external direct current inner swirl type high-efficiency blowing oxygen lance nozzle, comprising a first tube body 1; a second tube body 4 is sleeved on the outside of the first tube body 1, and a first annular gap is left between the first tube body 1 and the second tube body 4; a through hole 6 is opened in the center of the bottom of the second tube body 4; a third tube body 5 is sleeved on the outside of the second tube body 4, and a second annular gap is left between the second tube body 4 and the third tube body 5; the first tube body 1, the second tube body 4 and the third tube body 5 are all cylindrical tubes; an external direct current nozzle 2 is provided at the bottom of the third tube body 5, and the external direct current nozzle 2 passes through the third tube body 5. The second tube body 4 and the bottom wall of the first tube body 1 are connected to the interior of the first tube body 1, and there are multiple external straight-flow nozzles 2; an internal swirl nozzle 3 is provided at the bottom of the third tube body 5, and the internal swirl nozzle 3 is provided between every two adjacent external straight-flow nozzles 2. The internal swirl nozzle 3 passes through the third tube body 5, the second tube body 4 and the bottom wall of the first tube body 1, and is connected to the interior of the first tube body 1. There are multiple internal swirl nozzles 3; the distance between the axis of the external straight-flow nozzle 2 and the axis of the nozzle is L2, and the distance between the axis of the internal swirl nozzle 3 and the axis of the nozzle is L1, and L2 is greater than L1.

[0027] This embodiment uses a group of external direct-flow nozzle holes and a group of internal swirl nozzle holes to replace the traditional oxygen lance nozzle holes. The external direct-flow nozzle holes are arranged on the periphery of the nozzle end face with a relatively large center distance. During the blowing process, the external direct-flow nozzle holes avoid the rapid fusion of the jet streams and ensure the independence of each stream in the jet direction, thereby increasing the contact area between the jet streams and the molten pool. Moreover, the jet intensity of the dispersed streams is relatively weak, which to a large extent prevents splashing from being too high and ejected from the furnace mouth. Compared with the external direct-flow nozzle holes, the internal swirl nozzle holes are arranged on the inner side of the nozzle end face with a relatively small center distance. The internal swirl nozzle holes can enable the jet streams to stir the converter molten pool in a swirl manner, thereby ensuring the stirring intensity of the molten pool during the blowing process.

[0028] In one embodiment, the throat diameter d of the outer straight nozzle 2 is 2t The throat diameter d of the inner swirl nozzle 3 1t The ratio is (46.4 / 37.6)d 2t / d 1t =1.2; the outlet diameter d of the external straight-flow nozzle 2 2e The outlet diameter d of the inner swirl nozzle 3 1e The ratio is (61.2 / 50.3)d 2e / d 1e =1.2. This preferred diameter ratio enables the reactants to be mixed quickly and evenly, thereby significantly improving the kinetic conditions of various chemical reactions during the steelmaking process, such as oxidation, desulfurization, and dephosphorization, and accelerating the reaction rate, thereby shortening the time required to reach the blowing endpoint.

[0029] In one embodiment, the central axis of the outer straight-flow nozzle 2 forms an angle α2 with the central axis of the nozzle head, while the central axis of the inner swirl nozzle 3 forms an angle α1 with the central axis of the nozzle head. (16° - 12° (α2 - α1) = 4°); the rotation angle of the inner swirl nozzle 3 is β1 = 8°. This preferred angle ratio allows the oxygen in the inner swirl to generate a strong swirling airflow within the molten pool, forming a vortex and causing intense movement of the molten steel and slag within the pool. The outer straight-flow oxygen jet penetrates deeply into the bottom of the molten pool, further enhancing the stirring effect. This combined stirring method can rapidly homogenize the composition and temperature within the molten pool.

[0030] In one embodiment, (115 / 100) L2 / L1 = 1.15. This preferred distance ratio allows the rotational force generated by the internal swirling oxygen flow to promote better mixing of the slag and molten steel, improving the slag's fluidity. The external direct oxygen jet helps blow the slag toward the edge of the molten pool, expanding the reaction interface between the slag and molten steel, and accelerating the melting and reaction of the slag.

[0031] During blowing, oxygen enters the first pipe body 1 of the lance from the oxygen branch pipe, and then enters the outer straight-flow nozzle 2 and the inner rotational-flow nozzle 3, and the oxygen is sprayed from the outer straight-flow nozzle 2 and the inner rotational-flow nozzle 3 to form supersonic jets; cold water enters the second ring gap through the through hole 6 from the first ring gap.

[0032] To verify the obvious effect of the oxygen lance nozzle of the utility model compared with the traditional oxygen lance nozzle, comparative experiments of the new type of outer straight-flow inner rotational-flow oxygen lance nozzle and the traditional oxygen lance nozzle under the same smelting conditions are carried out, and the specific sizes of the two oxygen lance nozzles are shown in Table 1.

[0033] Table 1 Geometric parameters of the traditional oxygen lance nozzle and the new type of oxygen lance nozzle for 260t converter.

[0034]

[0035] During the experiment, the produced steel grade is plain carbon plate, the molten iron quantity is 260t, the scrap steel quantity is 30-40t, the total pipe oxygen pressure is 1.3MPa, the working oxygen pressure is 1.05MPa, the oxygen supply flow is 56000Nm 3 / h, the blowing lance position is changed at 2.5m-3.0m, the process lance position is changed at 2.5m-2.7m, and the carbon pulling lance position is changed at 2.0m-2.4m.

[0036] To ensure the accuracy of the experiment, the pretreated molten iron composition used in the experiment is shown in Table 2, and the difference of each furnace and the average value is not large. The blowing effect of the representative 5 consecutive furnaces is recorded and compared and analyzed.

[0037] Table 2 Analysis of key smelting indexes.

[0038]

[0039] By comparing the indexes in Table 2, it is found that the advantages of the outer straight-flow inner rotational-flow high-efficiency blowing oxygen lance nozzle are reflected in that the blowing time is shortened by 35 seconds, the oxygen supply intensity is increased by 0.40 m 3 / t min, and the splashing rate is reduced by 0.54%. This is mainly due to that the oxygen in the inner rotational-flow part generates strong rotational airflow in the molten pool to form a vortex, so that the molten steel and slag in the molten pool move violently. The outer straight-flow oxygen jet further strengthens the stirring effect. This combined stirring mode can make the composition and temperature in the molten pool rapidly and uniformly. In the steelmaking process, when the slagging material or alloy material is added, the strong stirring can make them quickly disperse in the molten pool and accelerate the diffusion speed of the reaction substances.

[0040] Compared with the current oxygen lance nozzle, the high-efficiency blowing oxygen lance nozzle can effectively shorten the blowing time, which fully shows that the main oxygen jet flow adopts the way of blowing gas cyclone blowing, can effectively improve the blowing stirring condition, and enhance the stirring intensity of the molten pool.
