AbstractThe Corus IJmuiden Direct Sheet Plant focuses on production of thin gauged material through a single casting strand and an (semi-) endless rolling process. The caster has a 90 mm thick funnel shaped mould and is equipped with liquid core reduction, allowing a slab thickness of 70 mm. To reach casting speeds up to 5·4 mm min?1, steel is fed into the mould using a specially designed submerged entry nozzle and an adjustable multi-pole electromagnetic braking system is installed. Although still increasing, productivity is now at the design level of 1·3 Mt/year. Average casting speed (including start and stop procedures) is >5·0 m min?1 with sequence lengths up to nine 300 t ladles, representing a maximum planned casting time of 12 h. Significant growth has occurred in the production of (thin gauged) high strength steels. Breakouts have been a constant threat but stabilisation of the casting process has resulted in significant reduction in these events, allowing steady growth to productivity targets. Developments to improve mould fluid flow, mould level control, mould heat transfer and strand lubrication are described. 相似文献

AbstractIn high speed continuous casting, optimisation of mould taper is key for intensifying heat transfer and for improving the quality of the cast products. Mathematical modelling has been carried out by combining heat transfer, steel shrinkage and parabolic continuous taper model in order to optimise the mould taper profile. These models have been assembled to a set of software, the inputs of which include the steel grade, casting speed, casting temperature, length and the cross-section of mould tube, while the outputs consist of surface temperature of the strand, thickness of solidified shell, thermal linear expansion coefficient, steel shrinkage, distortion of the mould tube wall, the actual air gap, total taper and the continuous taper profile. Optimum mould taper has a parabolic profile which is tapered inwards that changes continuously along the length of the strand in order to achieve reduction in air gap while avoiding distortion of the mould tube. 相似文献

AbstractThis paper is the first of a series of two, providing an overview of the results of mould heat transfer analyses conducted over years of industrial trials. The effects of casting speed, carbon content, superheat, water flowrate, electromagnetic stirring, and mould lubricant are discussed in terms of the midface mould heat transfer. Mould corner heat transfer is also discussed. Finally, an overview of mould design is given, as well as an analysis that reveals that both excessively steep and shallow meniscus tapers cause high heat transfer. Alternative designs to the conventional straight tapered moulds are discussed briefly. The focus is on the primary cooling zone, and therefore billet quality issues are not extensively covered. 相似文献

AbstractMaintaining a stable and uniform heat transfer from steel shell to mould is important to produce high quality casting billet. In the present paper, a large amount of measured data of heat flux and temperature for round billet continuous casting mould from a plant trial has been analysed to shed light on the variability and non-uniformity of mould heat transfer around the perimeter. The results show that the variability and non-uniformity of heat extraction from the steel through the mould is affected slightly by operational parameters, such as pouring temperature, casting speed, meniscus, electromagnetic stirring current, but strongly by the steel carbon content and mould powder type. The installation of the mould in caster machine determines the magnitude of non-uniformity of heat transfer to a great extent. The relative root mean square (rRMS) of mould heat flux, presenting the variability and non-uniformity of mould heat transfer around the perimeter in transverse section, has wider range of variation and higher mean value compared with that of temperature. When the abnormality of heat transfer happens, such as deposit, the non-uniformity of mould heat transfer is also studied. 相似文献

AbstractUnderstanding the shrinkage behaviour of a steel billet is very important for designing the continuous casting mould, and conversely, a well designed mould is beneficial when matching the shrinkage behaviour of the billet. The shrinkage behaviour of a billet is hard to measure in situ during continuous casting but can be calculated by numerical simulation. A three-dimensional finite element model has been built to simulate the thermal and stress fields of the billet in the mould. The dynamic thermal boundary condition, the effect of ferrostatic pressure and the temperature dependent thermophysical parameters have been considered in the model. The shrinkage of billet when considering ferrostatic pressure is on average 0·08 mm smaller than when not considering ferrostatic pressure. The temperature and stress distributions are analysed in the present paper, and based on this analysis, a novel petal-like mould was designed and its taper determined. The designed mould has been tested in industrial practice showing better lifetime and billet quality. 相似文献

AbstractWith the drive to cast higher quality, many minimills are adopting mould powder as a lubricant for the continous casting of steel billets. Over the past three decades considerable experience has been accumulated on the relationship between mould behaviour and billet quality for oil lubrication, but comparatively few studies have been conducted for mould powder lubrication. This study, conducted at a Canadian minimill, involved instrumenting four faces of a copper mould with thermocouples and monitoring mould temperatures during casting of 208 × 208 mm billets with mould flux lubrication. Billet samples were also taken to coincide with periods of measurements. Mould temperatures were monitored for two different mould powder compositions, for different mould oscillation frequencies, two mould cooling water velocities, and a range of steel compositions. An inverse heat conduction model was developed to calculate mould heat transfer from the measured temperatures. In this paper, which is the first part of a two part series, details of the inverse heat conduction model and mould heat transfer data are presented. The results obtained for mould flux lubrication have been compared with those for mould heat transfer for oil lubrication. For peritectic steels, with carbon content in the range 0·12–0·14%, it was found that lubricant type has little influence on the measured mould heat flux distribution at the centreline of a face. The peak mould heat flux was found to be approximately 2500 kW m-2 . In contrast, for medium carbon steels, mould heat transfer with mould powder was significantly lower than when oil was employed as a lubricant. For instance, at the meniscus, the peak heat flux with mould powder was approximately 2500 kW m-2 , which was half that recorded with oil as a lubricant. The influence of oscillation frequency, mould cooling water velocity, and mould powder type on mould heat flux has also been presented. 相似文献

AbstractA finite element thermal stress model to compute the thermomechanical state of the solidifying shell during continuous casting of steel in a square billet casting mould has been applied to investigate longitudinal cracks. A two-dimensional thermoelastoviscoplastic analysis was carried out within a horizontal slice of the solidifying strand which moves vertically within and just below the mould. The model calculates the temperature distributions, the stresses, the strains in the solidifying shell, and the intermittent air gap between the casting mould and the solidifying strand. Model predictions were verified with both an analytical solution and a plant trial. The model was then applied to study the effect of mould corner radius on longitudinal crack formation for casting in a typical 0·75%/m tapered mould with both oil and mould powder lubrication. With this inadequate linear taper, a gap forms between the shell and the mould in the corner region. As the corner radius of the billet increases from 4 to 15 mm, this gap spreads further around the corner towards the centre of the strand and becomes larger. This leads to more temperature non-uniformity around the billet perimeter as solidification proceeds. Longitudinal corner surface cracks are predicted to form only in the large corner radius billet, owing to tension in the hotter and thinner shell along the corner during solidification in the mould. Off corner internal cracks form more readily in the small corner radius billet. They are caused by bulging below the mould, which bends the thin, weak shell around the corner, creating tensile strain on the solidification front where these longitudinal cracks are ultimately observed. 相似文献

AbstractAt the thin slab caster of Tata Steel, IJmuiden, mild cooling mould powders were introduced with the aim to control the mould heat transfer during casting. These mild cooling mould powders are characterised by specific values of basicity, solidification point and chemical composition. Application of these mould powders resulted in a redistribution of mould heat transfer during casting, i.e. a reduced and more stable mould heat transfer in the critical upper part of the mould and an increased mould heat transfer in the lower part of the mould. The average mould heat transfer and hence the shell thickness at mould exit are comparable to the standard powder. The application of mild cooling mould powders also resulted in improved solidification behaviour of the steel shell. A thinner chill zone with smaller thickness variations was observed. Furthermore, it was found that the mould taper required optimisation to match the changes in shrinkage behaviour to ensure uniform solidification. The use of mild cooling powders was observed to give an increase in mould friction. Mould thermal monitoring indicated that the solid slag films fractured (sheeting) in the upper part of the mould. However, no operational problems were reported, which indicate that the first 200 mm under the steel meniscus is essential for initial solidification and for the formation of a homogeneous steel shell. All these findings can be understood by considering the crystallisation properties of the mould slag, which include the cooling rate. Mild cooling has been shown to provide uniform heat transfer and adequate lubrication for high speed thin slab casting. 相似文献

AbstractThis paper is the second of a series of two describing abnormal transient phenomena observed during online monitoring of a billet continuous casting machine. Special attention is paid in Part 2 to in mould solidification. A mould heat flux drift phenomenon (HFD) has been detected, but only for mould powder basicities larger than 0·8. The HFD is related to a decrease of the heat flux in the lower part of the mould and an increase in both the billet-mould friction force and mould thermocouple variability. Results of tests changing the mould powder grade during casting have provided help in explaining the HFD. The probable reason for the HFD is crystallisation of the glassy slag layer. The heat flux ratio parameter (HFR), defined as the ratio between the heat flux in the lower part of the mould and the heat flux in the upper part of the mould, has proved to be a good tool for judging the casting performance of a mould powder. 相似文献

An analysis of mould, spray and radiation zones of a continuous billet caster has been done by a three‐dimensional turbulent fluid flow and heat transfer mathematical model. The aim was to reduce crack susceptibility of the billets and enhance productivity of the billet caster. Enthalpy‐porosity technique is used for the solidification. Turbulence is modelled by a realizable k‐ε model. The three‐dimensional mesh of the billet is generated by Gambit software, and Fluent software is used for the solution of equations. In various zones, different standard boundary conditions are applied. Enhanced wall treatment is used for the turbulence near the wall. In the mould region, Savage and Prichard expression for heat flux is applied. In the spray cooling zone, the heat transfer coefficient for surface cooling of the billet is calculated by knowing the water flow rate and the nozzle configuration of the plant. The model predicts the velocities in the molten pool of a billet, the temperature in the entire volume of billet, the heat transfer coefficient in the mould region, the heat flux in the cooling zone and radiation cooling zone, and the shell thickness at various zones. The model forecasts that the billet surface temperature up to the cutting region is above the austenite‐ferrite transformation temperature (which is accompanied by large volume change). The model predicts a temperature difference of maximum 700 K between the centre and surface of the billet. The entire solidification takes place at 11.0 m length at 3.0 m/min. For the same casting arrangement, increasing the casting speed up to 4.0 m/min has been explored. Based on the simulation results, recommendations to alter the spray water flow rate and spray nozzle diameter are presented to avoid a sudden change of temperature. 相似文献
