Abstract

PURPOSE:To make possible stable casting without breakout by providing a gap between a field nozzle and a horizontal casting mold in a horizontal and continuous casting device and executing continuous casting while supplying a high-pressure inert gas to the gap. CONSTITUTION:The gap 7 is provided to the boundary between the field nozzle 2 of a tundish 11 in the horizontal and continuous casting device and the water cooled horizontal casting mold 1 made of copper. The inert has such as N2 or Ar is supplied under the high pressure P (atm) expressed by the below mentioned equation into the gap 7, by which a solidified shell is formed only in the mold 1 without cooling the nozzle 2 by the mold 1 and without forming the solidified shell in the nozzle 2. The stable casting without breakout is thus made possible.

(Prior Art) The horizontal continuous casting method for steel has the great advantage that the construction cost of continuous casting equipment is lower than the continuous casting method using the vertical casting method. On the other hand, when casting steel, it is not possible to use slag lubrication in the mold, so when using a water-cooled copper mold and injecting molten steel into the mold from the tundish through the feed nozzle, the mold 1 It is necessary to use a plate ring 8 at the boundary between the feed nozzle 2 and the feed nozzle 2, and to intermittently pull out the slab by repeating a drawing period and a drawing stop period to form a solidified shell regularly and prevent breakout. was there.

(/-) By using a break ring, so-called cold shut marks occur on the surface of the slab, which causes various defects in the slab rolling process. In other words, use a break ring to perform intermittent drawing. In this case, as shown in FIG. 7, the solidified shell 4 formed during one drawing stop period has a shape in which both ends are thick. The reason for this is that one end surface 4a has a plate ring 8.
This is because the other end surface 4b was cooled by the end surface 5a of the solidified shell 5 generated during the previous drawing stop period and solidification was promoted. In this case, a so-called cold shut is generated at the connection 6 between the solidified shells 4 and 5. As mentioned above, the plate ring 8 is made of refractory materials such as BN and Sialon, and these D-sized materials have good thermal conductivity, so the cooling effect by the water-cooled copper mold 1 is large, and this causes the solidification shell 6 to This is a major cause of the shape shown in Figure 7. Furthermore, since the temperature of the solidified shell end surface 4a that was in contact with the break ring 8 is low, after the drawing period,
Even if it moves to the position of the end face 5a in FIG. 7 and comes into contact with newly supplied molten steel, it will not melt again, so a cold shut will be formed in the connection part 6.
