- This mode of operation of the adjustable flame burners can be extended to all the adjustable flame burners installed in the oven.
- the implementation of this method thus makes it possible to increase the efficiency of the method of creating P2 and P3 type inclined thermal profiles in the slab by initiating it from the recovery zone by using modulating burners. flame in the preheating zone. By this means it is possible to obtain temperature differences over the length of the product which can equal or exceed 60 ° C for specific rolling processes.

- the temperature difference between two points of the product is thus obtained by the operating mode of the oven according to the invention, and it is understood that the importance of the temperature difference will be controlled by the furnace control system by controlling the number necessary rows of burners until this difference in temperature.
- the control of the flow in the recovery zone used to prime the desired temperature profile at the furnace outlet could be obtained with an oven equipped with fixed flame burners provided that a burner on one side of the furnace is extinguished. which would have the effect of limiting the power injected into the row corresponding to the power of a single burner.
- the simultaneous implementation of the burner A1 short flame and A2 flame long allows the injection of the power of two burners in the row while creating the desired thermal effect on the product. This is particularly important in the preheating zone where the unit powers of the burners are important. If only one burner was lit on one side, its power should be doubled to create the desired thermal effect. Doubling the burner power would impose burner size increases, ducts and valves that may not be compatible with the available space on the oven walls.
- the method of the invention for achieving a temperature difference between two points of the product is controlled by the furnace control system by adjusting the operating mode of the flame-modulating burners (flame length) and adjusting the time of operation. ignition of all the burners (thermal power injected). By the combination of these two means of action, it is possible to obtain the desired product temperature profile.
- the operating mode mentioned above can also be used to produce small differences in temperature on the thermal profile of the product, keeping only the action of the heating and equalization zones to better control the temperature difference to be obtained on the product. product.
- This furnace control method can be ensured by the furnace operation optimization system so as to anticipate the changes in the thermal regime of the furnace with respect to the products to be fired and to regulate with precision the importance of the temperature difference obtained. on the product.

Le produit sidérurgique tel que billette ou brame et réchauffé dans le four est ensuite laminé pour obtenir un produit long tel que poutrelles ou profilés ou un produit plat tel que les tôles épaisses ou tôles minces. Pour cette opération de laminage, il est particulièrement important de respecter la température moyenne du produit TM correspondant à la température de défournement du produit mais également le profil longitudinal du produit, c'est-à-dire le profil de température en long sur le produit, transversalement à l'axe du four. Cette invention apporte une solution au contrôle de ce profil longitudinal du produit en permettant l'obtention de différences de température importantes entre la tête et la queue du produit.The steel product such as billet or slab and reheated in the oven is then rolled to obtain a long product such as beams or profiles or a flat product such as thick plates or thin sheets.

N) pour chaque cycle en le faisant fonctionner en mode Marche/Arrêt (ON/OFF), c'est-à-dire par la modulation de son temps d'allumage par rapport au temps de cycle. Par exemple pour injecter une puissance de 30 % de la puissance nominale du brûleur (A... N), celui-ci sera allumé pendant 30 % de chaque cycle de, par exemple, trois minutes.On such an oven, the application of processes according to the state of the art allows the injection of a part of the thermal capacity of the burner (A ...

For example to inject a power of 30% of the nominal power of the burner (A ... N), it will be lit for 30% of each cycle of, for example, three minutes.
Il est ainsi possible d'obtenir, selon les demandes du procédé de laminage, des profils de température longitudinaux de brame comme présentés sur la

L'algorithme de pilotage des brûleurs est implémenté dans le moyen de commande des brûleurs.The burner control algorithm is implemented in the burner control means.
Le procédé peut être caractérisé par l'obtention de profils de température plats, tels que P1, du produit selon la direction orthogonale au sens d'avancement.The process may be characterized by obtaining flat temperature profiles, such as P1, of the product in the direction orthogonal to the direction of travel.

L'invention consiste, mises à part les dispositions exposées ci-dessus, en un certain nombre d'autres dispositions dont il sera plus explicitement question ci-après à propos d'un exemple de réalisation décrit avec référence aux dessins annexés, mais qui ne sont nullement limitatifs. Sur ces dessins :

Fig. 1 est un schéma simplifié d'un four de réchauffage selon l'invention, sur lequel le brûleur B1 fonctionne en flamme courte et C1 en flamme longue. -
Fig. 2 est un diagramme illustrant plusieurs profils longitudinaux de température dans un produit, en particulier en sortie du four, et -
Fig. 3 est un schéma du four semblable à celui deFig.1 , les brûleurs A à C du four étant allumés en flamme courte du côté gauche et en flamme longue du côté droit du four.

Fig. 1 is a simplified diagram of a heating furnace according to the invention, in which the burner B1 operates in short flame and C1 in long flame. -
Fig. 2 is a diagram illustrating several longitudinal temperature profiles in a product, in particular at the outlet of the oven, and -
Fig. 3 is a diagram of the oven similar to that ofFig.1 , the burners A to C of the oven being lit in short flame on the left side and in long flame on the right side of the oven.
L'invention apporte une solution au problème défini précédemment en utilisant les brûleurs ou une partie des brûleurs de la zone de préchauffage du four, c'est-à-dire la zone située immédiatement en aval de la zone de récupération R du four, et en les pilotant de façon à obtenir ces différences de température sur le profil longitudinal du produit adaptées aux besoins des lamineurs. Le pilotage spécifique de ces brûleurs de préchauffage va influencer la circulation des fumées dans la zone de récupération qui va initier la formation de la différence de température recherchée dès la zone de récupération R du four. Par ce moyen, la zone de récupération R du four devient active alors qu'elle est traditionnellement considérée comme passive pour le contrôle du profil de température du produit dans les fours construits suivant l'état de l'art.The invention provides a solution to the problem defined above by using the burners or part of the burners of the preheating zone of the oven, that is to say the zone immediately downstream of the recovery zone R of the oven, and by controlling them so as to obtain these temperature differences on the longitudinal profile of the product adapted to the needs of the rollers. The specific control of these preheating burners will influence the flow of fumes in the recovery zone which will initiate the formation of the desired temperature difference from the recovery zone R of the furnace. By this means, the recovery zone R of the furnace becomes active whereas it is traditionally considered passive for the control of the product temperature profile in furnaces built according to the state of the art.
Le pilotage des brûleurs est réalisé par le moyen de commande CM.The control of the burners is performed by the CM control means.

Le pilotage des brûleurs est réalisé par le moyen de commande CM.The control of the burners is performed by the CM control means.
Le four est représenté en vue de dessus avec une direction de déplacement des produits 3 - partiellement représentés - de la gauche vers la droite. Les brûleurs A1 et A2 sont des brûleurs à modulation de flamme de la zone de préchauffage du four, ce qui signifie les premiers brûleurs installés dans le sens d'avance des produits. La zone de préchauffage peut comprendre une ou plusieurs rangées de brûleurs sur chaque côté du four en fonction de son tonnage de production et du type de produits à réchauffer.The oven is shown in plan view with a direction of movement of the products 3 - partially shown - from left to right. Burners A1 and A2 are flame-modulating burners in the preheating zone of the furnace, which means the first burners installed in the forward direction of the products. The preheating zone may comprise one or more rows of burners on each side of the oven depending on its production tonnage and the type of products to be heated.
Sur la
On voit sur la
On voit que selon l'invention, il est possible dès la zone de récupération d'amorcer le profil de température souhaité au défournement et que ce profil sera maintenu voire augmenté par l'utilisation des brûleurs situés en aval de la zone de récupération.It can be seen that according to the invention, it is possible from the recovery zone to initiate the desired temperature profile at the moment of disassembly and that this profile will be maintained or even increased by the use of the burners located downstream of the recovery zone.
Le brûleur A2 est allumé en permanence en flamme longue, le brûleur A1 est allumé en flamme courte de façon à maintenir la circulation préférentielle des fumées suivant 4. Si nécessaire, comme indiqué sur la
Comme exposé, on fait fonctionner en temps d'allumage différentiel un nombre de rangées de brûleurs à flamme modulable et/ou de rangées de brûleurs à flamme fixe. Ce nombre de rangées peut être indépendant des découpages de zones. De plus, sur les Fours Digitaux, chaque brûleur constitue à lui seul une zone pilotée en demande de puissance.As stated, a number of rows of adjustable flame burners and / or rows of fixed flame burners are operated in differential ignition time. This number of rows can be independent of the zone divisions. In addition, the Digital Ovens, each burner is a single zone driven demand for power.
Pour maintenir ou augmenter le profil de température de type P3 initié dans la zone de récupération, il faut agir sur la méthode d'injection de la puissance des brûleurs, situés en aval de la rangée A, par exemple dans la zone correspondant aux brûleurs B1 et B2, si une puissance thermique de 70 % est nécessaire dans la rangée de brûleurs B, les brûleurs B1 et B2 seront allumés 70 % du temps de cycle pour obtenir une répartition homogène de la puissance thermique injectée dans le produit. Si on souhaite obtenir une température plus importante du côté gauche du four, on pourra maintenir le brûleur B1 allumé en flamme courte pendant 100 % du temps de cycle et n'allumer le brûleur B2 en flamme longue que pendant 40 % du temps de cycle. Par ce moyen, une puissance identique à celle requise par le produit est injectée dans la zone des brûleurs B1 et B2 mais cette puissance est décalée vers l'extrémité 1 du produit pour générer un profil de température du type P3.To maintain or increase the P3 type temperature profile initiated in the recovery zone, it is necessary to act on the method of injecting the power of the burners, located downstream of the row A, for example in the zone corresponding to the burners B1 and B2, if a thermal power of 70% is required in the row of burners B, burners B1 and B2 will be lit 70% of the cycle time to obtain a homogeneous distribution of the thermal power injected into the product. If it is desired to obtain a higher temperature on the left side of the oven, it will be possible to keep the burner B1 lit in a short flame for 100% of the cycle time and to ignite the burner B2 in long flame only during 40% of the cycle time. By this means, a power identical to that required by the product is injected into the burner zone B1 and B2 but this power is shifted towards the end 1 of the product to generate a temperature profile of the P3 type.
Ce mode de fonctionnement des brûleurs à flamme modulable peut être étendu à l'ensemble des brûleurs à flamme modulable installés dans le four.This mode of operation of the adjustable flame burners can be extended to all the adjustable flame burners installed in the oven.
Il est également possible de conserver ce mode d'injection de la puissance si des brûleurs à flamme fixe équipent la zone, par exemple sur la
On voit ainsi que l'invention correspond, de préférence, à la mise en oeuvre combinée de trois caractéristiques :
- 1) l'utilisation de brûleurs à modulation de flamme de puissance importante dans la ou les premières rangées du four,
- 2) la mise en oeuvre de ces brûleurs à flamme modulable en entrée de four suivant un procédé particulier d'allumage de façon à créer un régime thermique spécifique dans la zone de récupération du four à même d'initier le profil de température du produit requis par le processus de laminage en sortie de four,
- 3) le maintien ou l'augmentation de cette différence de température en utilisant un mode d'allumage spécifique des brûleurs situés en aval de la première rangée A, en particulier en utilisant les brûleurs à flamme modulable en flamme courte du côté du produit à réchauffer préférentiellement et en augmentant le temps d'allumage des brûleurs situés du côté du produit à réchauffer préférentiellement au détriment du brûleur situé du côté opposé.
- 1) the use of high power flame modulation burners in the first row or rows of the oven,
- 2) the implementation of these adjustable flame burners at the furnace inlet according to a particular ignition method so as to create a specific thermal regime in the furnace recovery zone capable of initiating the temperature profile of the required product by the process of rolling out of the oven,
- 3) maintaining or increasing this difference in temperature by using a specific ignition mode of the burners located downstream of the first row A, in particular by using the flame burners with a short flame on the side of the product to be heated preferentially and by increasing the ignition time of the burners located on the side of the product to be heated preferentially to the detriment of the burner located on the opposite side.
Cette combinaison est rendue possible par la mise au point de brûleurs à modulation de flamme de forte puissance, par exemple comme ceux installés dans les zones de préchauffage du four.This combination is made possible by the development of high-power flame-modulation burners, for example those installed in the preheating zones of the oven.
La mise en oeuvre de ce procédé permet ainsi d'augmenter l'efficacité de la méthode de création de profils thermiques inclinés de type P2 et P3 dans la brame en l'initiant dès la zone de récupération grâce à l'utilisation de brûleurs à modulation de flamme dans la zone de préchauffage. Par ce moyen, il est possible d'obtenir des différences de températures sur la longueur du produit qui peuvent égaler ou dépasser 60°C pour des procédés de laminage spécifiques.The implementation of this method thus makes it possible to increase the efficiency of the method of creating P2 and P3 type inclined thermal profiles in the slab by initiating it from the recovery zone by using modulating burners. flame in the preheating zone. By this means it is possible to obtain temperature differences over the length of the product which can equal or exceed 60 ° C for specific rolling processes.
On comprend que le mode de pilotage des brûleurs à flamme modulable en entrée de four permet d'obtenir un profil de type P3 comme exposé ci-dessus ou, en adoptant un mode de fonctionnement symétrique des brûleurs, d'obtenir un profil de température de type P2 ou, en mixant les durées durant lesquelles fonctionnent les brûleurs de chaque côté du four en flamme courte ou longue, d'obtenir tout type de profil de température du produit, par exemple les profils P1, P4 et P5 ou toute combinaison de ces profils.It will be understood that the piloting mode of the adjustable flame burners at the furnace inlet makes it possible to obtain a P3 type profile as explained above or, by adopting a symmetrical operating mode of the burners, to obtain a temperature profile of type P2 or, by mixing the times during which the burners on each side of the furnace operate in a short or long flame, to obtain any type of temperature profile of the product, for example the profiles P1, P4 and P5 or any combination thereof. profiles.
La différence de température entre deux points du produit est ainsi obtenue par le mode de fonctionnement du four selon l'invention, et il est entendu que l'importance de la différence de température sera contrôlée par le système de commande du four en pilotant le nombre nécessaire de rangées de brûleurs jusqu'à l'obtention de cette différence de température.The temperature difference between two points of the product is thus obtained by the operating mode of the oven according to the invention, and it is understood that the importance of the temperature difference will be controlled by the furnace control system by controlling the number necessary rows of burners until this difference in temperature.
Le contrôle de l'écoulement dans la zone de récupération servant à amorcer le profil de température souhaité à la sortie du four pourrait être obtenu avec un four équipé de brûleurs à flammes fixes sous réserve d'éteindre un brûleur d'un côté du four, ce qui aurait pour conséquence de limiter la puissance injectée dans la rangée correspondante à la puissance d'un seul brûleur. La mise en oeuvre simultanée du brûleur A1 en flamme courte et A2 en flamme longue permet l'injection de la puissance de deux brûleurs dans la rangée tout en créant l'effet thermique souhaité sur le produit. Ceci est particulièrement important dans la zone de préchauffage où les puissances unitaires des brûleurs sont importantes. Si un seul brûleur était allumé d'un seul côté, sa puissance devrait être doublée pour créer l'effet thermique souhaité. Doubler la puissance du brûleur imposerait des augmentations de taille de brûleur, des gaines et des vannes qui pourraient ne pas être compatibles avec la place disponible sur les parois du four.The control of the flow in the recovery zone used to prime the desired temperature profile at the furnace outlet could be obtained with an oven equipped with fixed flame burners provided that a burner on one side of the furnace is extinguished. which would have the effect of limiting the power injected into the row corresponding to the power of a single burner. The simultaneous implementation of the burner A1 short flame and A2 flame long allows the injection of the power of two burners in the row while creating the desired thermal effect on the product. This is particularly important in the preheating zone where the unit powers of the burners are important. If only one burner was lit on one side, its power should be doubled to create the desired thermal effect. Doubling the burner power would impose burner size increases, ducts and valves that may not be compatible with the available space on the oven walls.
Le procédé de l'invention pour réaliser une différence de température entre deux points du produit est piloté par le système de contrôle du four en ajustant le mode de fonctionnement des brûleurs à modulation de flamme (longueur de flamme) et en ajustant le temps d'allumage de l'ensemble des brûleurs (puissance thermique injectée). Par la combinaison de ces deux moyens d'action, il est possible d'obtenir le profil de température de produit souhaité.The method of the invention for achieving a temperature difference between two points of the product is controlled by the furnace control system by adjusting the operating mode of the flame-modulating burners (flame length) and adjusting the time of operation. ignition of all the burners (thermal power injected). By the combination of these two means of action, it is possible to obtain the desired product temperature profile.
On comprend également que pour l'obtention de profils de températures plats tels que présentés par P1 sur la
Le mode de fonctionnement cité précédemment peut être également utilisé pour produire des faibles différences de température sur le profil thermique du produit, en ne conservant que l'action des zones de chauffage et d'égalisation pour mieux maîtriser la différence de température à obtenir sur le produit.The operating mode mentioned above can also be used to produce small differences in temperature on the thermal profile of the product, keeping only the action of the heating and equalization zones to better control the temperature difference to be obtained on the product. product.
Ce procédé de pilotage du four peut être assuré par le système d'optimisation de fonctionnement du four de façon à anticiper les modifications de régime thermique du four par rapport aux produits à enfourner et de réguler avec précision l'importance de la différence de température obtenue sur le produit.This furnace control method can be ensured by the furnace operation optimization system so as to anticipate the changes in the thermal regime of the furnace with respect to the products to be fired and to regulate with precision the importance of the temperature difference obtained. on the product.
