Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for the metallurgical aftertreatment of premelted steel according to the preamble of claim 1 and to a method according to the preamble of claim 6.
- the aftertreatment pan is provided with a pan heating device, usually in the form of an arc heater.
- a pan heating device usually in the form of an arc heater.
- the molten steel can be heated via the resulting electric arc via one or more electrodes (usually operated with alternating current) which are suspended on support arms and guided through the cover in electrode guides.
- the electric arc heating can take place both under atmospheric pressure - a sealing of the pan against the lid is not necessary - and under vacuum, the pan being sealed in a vacuum-tight manner from the atmosphere and the electrodes being led through the lid via vacuum seals.
- Round graphite electrodes are used as electrodes according to the prior art, which can be loaded with high currents and generate an easily controllable arc. Depending on the pan size and the desired heating output, they have a diameter of 300 to 500 mm.
- the electrodes are consumed by oxidation with the atmosphere during operation.
- the electrode consumption is approx. 0.5 kg / t of treated steel.
- - DM / kg electrode this corresponds to costs of approx. 150,000, - DM with a monthly post-treatment of approx. 50,000 tons of steel.
- the present invention therefore proposes to provide a device for metallurgical aftertreatment of the type mentioned at the beginning with electrodes made from steel strands.
- the electrodes advantageously consist of billets cast in the strand, which have a composition corresponding to the analysis of the molten metal intended for aftertreatment.
- the casting structure of these continuous casting billets - in particular of steel billets with a dendritic solidification structure in the core - permits high current loads on such a metal electrode with a high current density, but without the electrodes melting quickly.
- the burn-off of an electrode made of a continuous cast billet of steel quality 42 Cr Mo 4 with a square cross section of 175 x 175 mm at a load of 40,000 amps and 250 volts for a period of 10 minutes is only approx. 0.5 m, corresponding to a melting weight of 120 kg.
- a total of 360 kg which is added to the weight of the steel melt to be treated as additional metal.
- the melted material of the continuous cast billet electrode is therefore not lost, but rather increases the output of the post-treated steel melt. Because of the very low electrode burn-up in relation to the total weight of the molten steel, there is generally no need to consider a different steel quality between the electrode and the melt, since the possibilities of analysis deviations are negligible.
- the electrodes choose a steel composition that corresponds to the analysis of the post-treated metal.
- Remnants of continuous casting billets or remnants of continuous casting base material are preferably used as metal electrodes. If these remaining pieces are not of sufficient length for clamping as an electrode, they can easily be welded together to form a longer piece before being used as an electrode.

Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung zur metallurgischen Nachbehandlung von vorgeschmolzenem Stahl gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 und auf ein Verfahren gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 6.The invention relates to a device for the metallurgical aftertreatment of premelted steel according to the preamble of
Vorrichtungen dieser Art gehören seit langem zum Stand der Technik (so z. B. GB-Z Steel Times, Febr. 1978, Seiten 205-211).Devices of this type have long been state of the art (e.g. GB-Z Steel Times, Feb. 1978, pages 205-211).
Sie sind aus dem Wunsch heraus entwickelt worden, beim Schmelzen von Metallen weitgehend alle metallurgische Arbeit aus dem eigentlichen Schmelzaggregat in ein nachgeschaltetes Behandlungsgefäß zu verlagern. Im Schmelzaggregat soll nur noch eingeschmolzen werden. Dadurch erzielt man insbesondere bei Elektrostahlwerken zum Schmelzen von Stahl beträchtliche Ofenzeitverkürzungen und damit eine erhöhte Leistung.They were developed out of the desire to transfer all metallurgical work from the actual melting unit into a downstream treatment vessel when melting metals. The melting unit should only be melted down. As a result, considerable furnace time reductions and thus increased performance are achieved, in particular in electrical steelworks for melting steel.
Dies führt zu der sog. Pfannenmetallurgie, im angelsächsischen Schrifttum als secondary steelmaking bezeichnet, bei der das Metall aus dem Vorschmelzaggregat in eine Pfanne abgestochen und in dieser nachbehandelt wird.This leads to the so-called ladle metallurgy, referred to in the Anglo-Saxon literature as secondary steelmaking, in which the metal is tapped from the premelting unit into a pan and aftertreated in it.
Bei der Erzeugung von Stahl sind Hauptaufgaben der Nachbehandlung
- - Auflegieren des Stahles
- - Einstellung exakter Analysen
- - Analysen- und Temperaturhomogenität in der Pfanne.
- - alloying of the steel
- - Setting exact analyzes
- - Analysis and temperature homogeneity in the pan.
Um die während der Behandlung unvermeidlichen Temperaturverluste in der Pfanne - inbesondere bedingt durch die Zugabe fester Legierungsmetalle und das Spülen der Stahlschmelze mittels über Bodenblassteine eingeleiteter Inertgase - zu kompensieren, ist die Nachbehandlungspfanne mit einer Pfannenaufheizeinrichtung versehen, meistens in Form einer Lichtbogenheizung. Bei einer derartigen Heizung befindet sich über der Pfanne ein Deckel ähnlich dem eines Lichtbogenofens. Über ein oder mehrere an Tragarmen aufgehängte und in Elektrodenführungen durch den Deckel geführte Elektroden (meist wechselstrombetrieben) kann die Stahlschmelze über den entstehenden elektrischen Lichtbogen aufgeheizt werden. Das elektrische Lichtbogenheizen kann sowohl unter Atmosphärendruck - wobei eine Abdichtung der Pfanne gegen den Deckel nicht erforderlich ist - als auch unter Vakuum stattfinden, wobei die Pfanne gegenüber der Atmosphäre vakuumdicht verschlossen ist und die Elektroden über Vakuumdichtungen durch den Deckel geführt sind.In order to compensate for the temperature losses in the pan that are unavoidable during the treatment - in particular due to the addition of solid alloy metals and the purging of the molten steel using inert gases introduced via bottom blowing stones - the aftertreatment pan is provided with a pan heating device, usually in the form of an arc heater. With such a heater, there is a lid over the pan similar to that of an electric arc furnace. The molten steel can be heated via the resulting electric arc via one or more electrodes (usually operated with alternating current) which are suspended on support arms and guided through the cover in electrode guides. The electric arc heating can take place both under atmospheric pressure - a sealing of the pan against the lid is not necessary - and under vacuum, the pan being sealed in a vacuum-tight manner from the atmosphere and the electrodes being led through the lid via vacuum seals.
Als Elektroden nach dem Stand der Technik werden runde Grafitelektroden verwendet, die mit hohen Stromstärken belastet werden können und einen gut regelbaren Lichtbogen erzeugen. Je nach Pfannengröße und gewünschter Heizleistung weisen sie einen Durchmesser von 300 bis 500 mm auf.Round graphite electrodes are used as electrodes according to the prior art, which can be loaded with high currents and generate an easily controllable arc. Depending on the pan size and the desired heating output, they have a diameter of 300 to 500 mm.
Die Elektroden verbrauchen sich jedoch während des Betriebes durch Oxydation mit der Atmosphäre. So liegt bei einer mit drei wechselstrombetriebenen 450 mm-Elektroden bestückten Pfannenheizanlage der Elektrodenverbrauch bei ca. 0,5 kg/to behandelten Stahles. Dies entspricht bei einem Preis von ca. 6, - DM/kg Elektrode Kosten von ca. 150.000, - DM bei einer monatlichen Nachbehandlung von ca. 50.000 to Stahl.However, the electrodes are consumed by oxidation with the atmosphere during operation. In a ladle heating system equipped with three AC-operated 450 mm electrodes, the electrode consumption is approx. 0.5 kg / t of treated steel. At a price of approx. 6, - DM / kg electrode, this corresponds to costs of approx. 150,000, - DM with a monthly post-treatment of approx. 50,000 tons of steel.
Abgesehen von diesen Kosten ist der Einsatz von Grafitelektroden bei der Nachbehandlung von Stählen mit niedrigsten Kohlenstoffgehalten (0,02 % C) bzw. von Stählen mit einem engen, den Kohlenstoffgehalt betreffenden Analysenbereich nicht möglich.Apart from these costs, it is not possible to use graphite electrodes in the aftertreatment of steels with the lowest carbon content (0.02% C) or steels with a narrow analysis range that affects the carbon content.
Das zur Homogenisierung der Stahlschmelze - insbesondere nach einer Legierungszugabe - durch Bodenblassteine in die Schmelze eingeleitete inerte Spülgas bringt die Schmelze derart in Wallung, daß die normalerweise dicht über der Schmelzoberfläche « brennenden » Elektroden mit der Schmelze in Berührung kommen und aus dem Grafitmaterial der Elektroden derartig viel Kohlenstoff in die Schmelze gelangt, daß die vorgeschriebenen niedrigen bzw. eng bestimmten Kohlenstoffgehalte überschritten werden und der Stahl somit für den vorgesehenen Verwendungszweck nicht mehr brauchbar ist. Zur Vermeidung der oben angeführten Nachteile schlägt die vorliegende Erfindung daher vor, eine Vorrichtung zur metallurgischen Nachbehandlung der eingangs genannten Art mit Elektroden aus Stahlsträngen zu versehen. Vorteilhafterweise bestehen die Elektroden dabei aus im Strang gegossenen Knüppeln, die eine der Analyse der zur Nachbehandlung vorgesehenen Metallschmelze entsprechende Zusammensetzung aufweisen. Das Gußgefüge dieser Stranggußknüppel - insbesondere von Knüppeln aus Stahl mit im Kern dendritischen Erstarrungsgefüge - erlaubt hohe Strombelastungen einer solchen Metallelektrode bei hoher Stromdichte, ohne daß jedoch die Elektroden schnell abschmelzen.The inert purging gas introduced into the melt by bottom blowing stones to homogenize the steel melt - especially after adding an alloy - sets the melt in such a way that the electrodes, which normally "burn" closely above the melt surface, come into contact with the melt and from the graphite material of the electrodes in such a way Much carbon gets into the melt that the prescribed low or narrowly determined carbon contents are exceeded and the steel is therefore no longer usable for the intended use. To avoid the disadvantages mentioned above, the present invention therefore proposes to provide a device for metallurgical aftertreatment of the type mentioned at the beginning with electrodes made from steel strands. The electrodes advantageously consist of billets cast in the strand, which have a composition corresponding to the analysis of the molten metal intended for aftertreatment. The casting structure of these continuous casting billets - in particular of steel billets with a dendritic solidification structure in the core - permits high current loads on such a metal electrode with a high current density, but without the electrodes melting quickly.
So beträgt der Abbrand bei einer Elektrode aus einem Stranggußknüppel der Stahlqualität 42 Cr Mo 4 mit einem quadratischen Querschnitt von 175 x 175 mm bei einer Belastung von 40 000 Amp und 250 Volt während einer Zeit von 10 Min. nur ca. 0,5 m, entsprechend einem Abschmelzgewicht von 120 kg. Bei drei Elektroden, angeschlossen an 3-Phasen-Wechselstrom, somit insgesamt 360 kg, die als zusätzliches Metall in das Gewicht der nachzubehandelnden Stahlschmelze eingehen. Das abgeschmolzene Material der Stranggußknüppel-Elektrode ist somit nicht verloren, sondern erhöht das Ausbringen der nachbehandelten Stahlschmelze. Wegen des im Verhältnis zum Gesamtgewicht der Stahlschmelze nur sehr geringen Elektrodenabbrandes braucht im allgemeinen auf eine unterschiedliche Stahlqualität Elektrode/ Schmelze keine Rücksicht genommen werden, da die Möglichkeiten von Analysenabweichungen verschwindend gering sind.For example, the burn-off of an electrode made of a continuous cast billet of steel quality 42 Cr Mo 4 with a square cross section of 175 x 175 mm at a load of 40,000 amps and 250 volts for a period of 10 minutes is only approx. 0.5 m, corresponding to a melting weight of 120 kg. With three electrodes, connected to 3-phase alternating current, a total of 360 kg, which is added to the weight of the steel melt to be treated as additional metal. The melted material of the continuous cast billet electrode is therefore not lost, but rather increases the output of the post-treated steel melt. Because of the very low electrode burn-up in relation to the total weight of the molten steel, there is generally no need to consider a different steel quality between the electrode and the melt, since the possibilities of analysis deviations are negligible.
Bei Qualitäten mit höchster Analysengenauigkeit empfiehlt es sich jedoch, für die Elektroden eine Stahlzusammensetzung zu wählen, die der Analyse des nachbehandelten Metalls entspricht.For qualities with the highest analysis accuracy, however, it is recommended for the electrodes choose a steel composition that corresponds to the analysis of the post-treated metal.
Als Metallelektroden werden vorzugsweise Reste von Stranggußknüppeln bzw. Reste von Stranggußrundmaterial eingesetzt. Sofern diese Reststücke eine für die Einspannung als Elektrode nicht ausreichende Länge aufweisen, können sie vor Einsatz als Elektrode leicht zu einem längeren Stück zusammengeschweißt werden.Remnants of continuous casting billets or remnants of continuous casting base material are preferably used as metal electrodes. If these remaining pieces are not of sufficient length for clamping as an electrode, they can easily be welded together to form a longer piece before being used as an electrode.
Die Erfindung eignet sich besonders zur Herstellung kohlenstoffarmer Stähle bzw. zur Herstellung von Stahlqualitäten mit eng definiertem Kohlenstoffgehalt. Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren nach Patentanspruch 6 wird vorteilhaft mit Elektroden aus stranggegossenen Stahlknüppeln durchgeführt.The invention is particularly suitable for the production of low-carbon steels or for the production of steel grades with a narrowly defined carbon content. The inventive method according to claim 6 is advantageously carried out with electrodes made of continuously cast steel billets.
Es ist nicht in jedem Fall erforderlich, auf niedrige Kohlenstoffgehalte in den Elektroden zu achten, sie sollten aber unter 0,5 % Kohlenstoff, vorzugsweise unter 0,2% Kohlenstoff liegen. Die Abschmelzrate ist nämlich überraschend gering, wie Versuche gezeigt haben.It is not always necessary to pay attention to low carbon contents in the electrodes, but they should be below 0.5% carbon, preferably below 0.2% carbon. The melting rate is surprisingly low, as tests have shown.

Sie besteht aus einer zylindrischen Pfanne 1, die flüssiges Metall 2 enthält. Über einen Bodenblasstein 3 wird die Metallschmelze umgerührt. Die Pfanne 1 ist mit einem Deckel 4 verschlossen, durch den drei Elektroden 51, 52, und 53, hindurchgeführt sind. Die Elektrodenspitzen reichen bis nahe an die Oberfläche der Metallschmelze und heizen dort über den elektrischen Lichtbogen die Metallschmelze auf.It consists of a
Die Elektroden bestehen erfindungsgemäß aus Stahlsträngen, vorzugsweise aus Stranggußknüppein bzw. Stranggußrundmaterial, die eine der Analyse der Metallschmelze entsprechende Zusammensetzung aufweisen.According to the invention, the electrodes consist of steel strands, preferably of continuous casting billets or round casting material, which have a composition corresponding to the analysis of the molten metal.
