A method for improving center segregation and surface crack of continuous casting medium-thick slab of peritectic steel reduces the cooling intensity at the earlier stage of solidification and enhancing the cooling intensity at the final stage of solidification. For example, the cooling water amount of the wide face of the mould is 3400-3600 L/min, and the cooling water amount of the narrow face of the mould is 480-530 L/min. The cooling water amount of the wide face of the foot roller section is 239-298 L/min, and the cooling water amount of the narrow face of the foot roller section is 61-65 L/min. The total cooling water amount of the sector segment is 1517-2166 L/min.
The present invention relates to the technical field of continuous casting slab quality control, and in particular, to a method for improving center segregation and surface crack of a continuous casting medium-thick slab of peritectic steel.
BACKGROUNDContinuous casting, as a very important link in the steel production process, is one of the most important steel casting methods in the world at present. Solidification of continuous casting slab is a heat dissipation process, mainly depending on three main cooling stages: primary cooling in the mould, secondary cooling by water spraying, and radiation in the air cooling zone. Wherein, cooling water is the most important cooling medium, and the water amount distribution of primary cooling and the water amount distribution of secondary cooling directly affect the slab quality. In the production process of the continuous casting slab, the main purpose of the primary cooling in the mould is to ensure that the initially solidified shell has sufficient thickness when the continuous casting slab leaves the mould so as to reduce the occurrence rate of bleed-out accidents. The main purpose of the secondary cooling is to ensure that the cast slab is cooled uniformly and the decreasing or increasing rate of the surface temperature of the continuous casting slab is in a reasonable range so as to control the strength and plasticity of the slab in a reasonable range.
The center segregation of the continuous casting slab is a typical defect, which is mainly due to the non-uniform distribution of solute elements caused by the solubility difference of the solute elements in the solid phase and the liquid phase and the selective crystallization phenomenon during solidification of molten steel. The mechanical soft reduction technology and the electromagnetic stirring technology are two main auxiliary methods for improving the center segregation, and are combined with the water distribution system of continuous casting, thereby effectively improving the internal quality of the continuous casting slab. The water distribution system of continuous casting is to forcibly cool the molten steel in the continuous casting process, which directly affects the formation of the solidification structure of the continuous casting slab and affects the center segregation of the final continuous casting slab. Therefore, optimizing and controlling the water distribution system of continuous casting is an important measure to improve the center segregation of the continuous casting slab.
The surface crack of the continuous casting slab is a common defect in the continuous casting process, which seriously affects the quality of the rolled products. In the continuous casting process, the surface crack generally originates from the primary cooling stage of the mould, expands in the secondary cooling stage of continuous casting, and finally appears on the surface of the rolled products. In the continuous casting process, the molten steel is subjected to the primary cooling of the mould and the subsequent secondary cooling of the continuous casting. The cooling methods in the two zones affect the strength and plasticity of the solidified shell, and have an important influence on the surface crack of the continuous casting slab.
The center segregation and surface crack of the continuous casting slab are closely related to the solidification and cooling control process in the continuous casting process. Therefore, to improve the quality of the continuous casting slab, the two main defects in the continuous casting process should be considered as a whole when optimizing the solidification and cooling process. In particular, during continuous casting of the peritectic steel, due to peritectic reaction, δ phase and liquid phase react at the same time to produce the austenite phase in the solidification process of the molten steel, the volume shrinkage is large, and therefore the solidified shell generates large solidification shrinkage. The crack sensitivity of the initially solidified shell is increased due to non-uniform solidification and cooling. Therefore, in view of the solidification characteristic of the peritectic steel, when the solidification and cooling process of the continuous casting slab is optimized and controlled, the comprehensive influence on the center segregation and surface crack defects of the slab by the process should be considered specially to improve the quality of the continuous casting slab.
In consequence, it is necessary to develop a method for improving the center segregation and surface crack of the continuous casting medium-thick slab of peritectic steel to deal with the defects in the prior art so as to solve or alleviate one or more of the above problems.
SUMMARYIn view of this, the present invention provides a method for improving center segregation and surface crack of the continuous casting medium-thick slab of peritectic steel.

An objective of the present invention is to provide a method for improving center segregation and surface crack of the continuous casting medium-thick slab of peritectic steel, especially the continuous casting medium-thick slab of peritectic steel with a cross-section size of 250 mm*1800 mm, by implementing the continuous casting solidification and control strategy and water distribution solution of “appropriately reducing the cooling intensity at the earlier stage of solidification+intensive cooling at the final stage of solidification”, the center segregation and surface crack of the continuous casting slab can be improved at the same time. The targeted peritectic steel includes Q345D, Q345E or Q345qE steel, and the degree of superheat of the peritectic steel during casting is 20-30° C.
A method for improving center segregation and surface crack of the continuous casting medium-thick slab of peritectic steel specifically comprises the following steps:
Step 1: controlling the cooling water control amount of the wide face of the mould to be 3400-3600 L/min and the cooling water amount of the narrow face of the mould to be 480-530 L/min;
Step 2: controlling the cooling water amount of the wide face of the foot roller section to be 239-298 L/min and the cooling water amount of the narrow face of the foot roller section to be 61-65 L/min;
Step 3: controlling the total cooling water amount of the sector segment to be 1517-2166 L/min, wherein the total cooling water amount of the first section to the fourth section is 840-1101 L/min, and the total cooling water amount of the fifth section to the eighth section is 633-1001 L/min; the total cooling water amount of the first section to the fourth section specifically comprises: the cooling water amount of the lower part of the first section is 241-318 L/min, the cooling water amount of the inner arc of the second section is 84-110 L/min, the total cooling water amount of the outer arc of the second section is 95-126 L/min, the total cooling water amount of the inner arc of the third section to the fourth section is 75-93 L/min, and the total cooling water amount of the outer arc of the third section to the fourth section is 99-125 L/min; the total cooling water amount of the fifth section to the eighth section specifically comprises: the total cooling water amount of inner arc of the fifth section to the sixth section is 140-189 L/min, the cooling water amount of outer arc of the fifth section to the sixth section is 223-302 L/min, the cooling water amount of inner arc of the seventh section to the eighth section is 97-184 L/min, and the cooling water amount of outer arc of the seventh section to the eighth section is 173-326 L/min. The total cooling water amount of the first section to the fourth section further comprises: the cooling water amount of the upper part of the first section is 246-329 L/min; and
Step 4: controlling the cooling water amount of inner arc of the ninth section to the fourteenth section to be 44-64 L/min and outer arc of the ninth section to the fourteenth section not to spray water.
The casting speed of the continuous casting medium-thick slab of peritectic steel is 0.7-0.9 m/min, the specific water amount of the secondary cooling zone is 0.89-0.94 L/Kg, and the water inlet temperature of the cooling water is controlled to be between 30° C. and 40° C.
The present invention based on the study of the heat transfer and solidification numerical simulation and high temperature thermal simulation of the continuous casting slab, the primary cooling water distribution amount of the mould and the secondary cooling water distribution amount of the continuous casting machine are comprehensively optimized to improve the center segregation and surface crack defects of the continuous casting medium-thick slab of peritectic steel at the same time.
The present invention effectively improves the uniformity of the initially solidified shell of the peritectic steel by controlling the cooling water amount of the wide and narrow faces of the copper plate of the mould. According to the technical solution of the present invention, when the cooling water amount of the wide face of the mould is greater than 3600 L/min and the cooling water amount of the narrow face of the mould is greater than 530 L/min, the initially solidified shell at the meniscus will be non-uniform, and the thermal stress on the surface of the continuous casting slab will be increased, so that the occurrence tendency of the surface crack of the continuous casting slab is increased significantly. However, when the cooling water amount of the wide face of the mould is less than 3400 L/min and the cooling water amount of the narrow face of the mould is less than 480 L/min, the bleed-out risk will occur. By controlling the cooling water amount of the wide face of the foot roller to be 239-298 L/min and the cooling water amount of the narrow face of the foot roller to be 61-65 L/min, sufficient strength of the continuous casting slab at the foot roller section can be ensured, the temperature reheating rate of the surface of the continuous casting slab is reduced, and surface crack induced by excessive thermal stress is avoided. By controlling the total cooling water amount of the first section to the fourth section of the segment to be 840-1101 L/min, the cooling intensity at this area can be weakened, the temperature drop rate of the surface of the continuous casting slab can be reduced, and the longitudinal cooling uniformity of the continuous casting slab can be improved. Meanwhile, due to reasonable configuration of the cooling water amount of the mould, the foot roller and the sector segment, the equiaxial crystal ratio of the continuous casting slab can be significantly increased, and the center segregation of the continuous casting slab can be improved.
The total cooling water amount of the fifth section to the eighth section of the sector segment is controlled to be 633-1001 L/min by implementing an intensive cooling strategy at the final stage of solidification of the continuous casting slab. By increasing the temperature drop rate of the surface of the continuous casting slab, the strength of the solidified shell of the continuous casting slab is effectively improved, the bulging amount is reduced, and the center segregation is improved. Meanwhile, compared with the prior art, the present invention has the advantages of reducing the temperature drop rate difference between the surface and the center of the continuous casting slab, increasing the volume shrinkage amount of the solidified shell on the surface of the continuous casting slab, compensating the solidification shrinkage amount of the center of the continuous casting slab and inhibiting the occurrence of a cavity in the center of the continuous casting slab. The cavity will generate negative pressure suction to allow the enriched liquid to enter the center of the slab to lead to center segregation, so intensive cooling at the final stage of solidification of the continuous casting slab is beneficial to improving the center segregation defect of the center of the continuous casting slab.
Based on the above control strategy, the total cooling water amount of the fifth section to the eighth section is specifically controlled as follows: the total cooling water amount of inner arc of the fifth section to the sixth section is 140-189 L/min, the cooling water amount of outer arc of the fifth section to the sixth section is 223-302 L/min, the cooling water amount of inner arc of the seventh section to the eighth section is 97-184 L/min, and the cooling water amount of outer arc of the seventh section to the eighth section is 173-326 L/min, which can ensure that the surface temperature of the continuous casting slab at the end of the seventh section of the sector segment is higher than the upper limit temperature value of a third brittleness area, and the continuous casting slab has high plasticity when being straightened, thus effectively avoiding the obvious increase of the surface crack caused by larger straightening stress at the straightening section (the eighth section of the sector segment).

1) the center segregation proportion of the continuous casting peritectic steel slab obtained on the basis of the technical solution of the present invention is low, and according to the result of experimental detection, the center segregation proportion of the continuous casting slab obtained by the present invention within grade 2.6 reaches more than 82%; and
